Enemy Mine - Acceptance of Identity and Self-Image
Zammis:
I have never seen a Drac. Only my own face in the water. I wish I was not a Drac. I wish I had your face.
Willis E. Davidge:
Oh, Zammis.
Zammis:
I wish I had five fingers.
Willis E. Davidge:
Oh, Zammis. Zammis. Listen to me. Listen to me. Now, as Dracs go, you are a great-looking kid. You are a great-looking kid.
Zammis:
Yeah?
Willis E. Davidge:
Yeah. It's just that... you've never seen your own kind. Now, someday you're gonna go home... and you're gonna forget all about this God-awful planet and all about me.
Zammis:
I will never forget you, Uncle.
Willis E. Davidge:
No, I guess you won't. I won't forget you either.
Zammis:
Uncle? What was my parent like?
Willis E. Davidge:
Zammis,... your parent... was my friend.

Enemy Mine - Understanding Differences in Communication
Willis E. Davidge:
Don't spread your fingers.
Zammis:
Fingers?
Willis E. Davidge:
Yeah. Yeah, these. Fingers. Kutta - fingers.
Zammis:
Not the same.
Willis E. Davidge:
Well, of course they're not the same. I mean, you're a Drac. I'm a human. Look. You have three fingers. One, two, three. I have five fingers. One, two, three,... four, five.
Zammis:
Zammis get four, five?
Willis E. Davidge:
No. You're a Drac. And I'm a human.
Zammis:
Human?
Willis E. Davidge:
Yeah. Um,... human is me. Drac is you. Now, I'm a human because my parents were human. And... your parent was a Drac. So you are a Drac. Got it?
