Question

Define allegories and commentaries and explain what they have in common. Your answer should be at least one hundred words.

Hotel Rwanda, a movie about a man who shelters hundreds of people from mass genocide in Rwanda explores the themes of genocide and taking charge for one's own safety. It is an example of allegory.

A commentary on the other hand refers to a piece of writing or visual which offers opinions about a specific topic or tries to explain a certain phenomenon in greater detail.
