Answer to Question 1

Answer: The ideal answer should include:
1. The same two sisters (Bebe and Laurie) wear identical clothes in both images suggesting an enduring connection over time.
2. Though standing shoulder to shoulder in 1976, Bebe dangles her arm over Laurie's shoulder in 2011 and they angle toward each other, heads touching in reflected closeness.
3. While Mimi connects with Heather in the first image by cupping her hand around Heather's shoulder, Mimi closes in on herself with crossed arms in 2011, leaving Heather separated and partially blocked in the back.
