I always liked the film Karate Kid. Released in 1984 it told the story of Daniel LaRusso, a high school student who moves from New Jersey to California and is subsequently targeted by a group of bullies that all attend the same Karate school. He is befriended by Mr Miyagi, his apartment block’s handyman, who teaches him another form of Karate to defend himself. The instruction sees him setting Daniel a series of seemingly menial, boring, mind numbing tasks, such as painting his fence and waxing his car.
