Don’t Give Disney a Pat on the Back for Doing the Bare Minimum
Disney has cleverly managed to dance around the misdeeds of their past by scraping by with an insincere action that does very little to incite any long-lasting positive changes.
Menekşeler Mavidir
Alişan, a former senator, runs a motel in a seaside town with his daughter Ayşe, son-in-law Orhan, and sons Bahadır and Mehmet. Orhan married Ayşe, whom he met at teacher training college. They are living happily. Orhan, a former teacher who has been dismissed from his job, enjoys a happy married life, but this is turned upside down when Menekşe arrives in town. This is because the young woman sees Orhan as a resemblance to her deceased husband, whom she refuses to believe is dead. This resemblance leads to a forbidden relationship between them. This affair quickly spreads throughout the town. After various events, Orhan receives news that Menekşe has committed suicide. Menekşe's body is recovered from the sea.
