Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban
Harry’s family members are negatively speaking of him and his parents
She is speaking poorly of his parents. Harry begins to use his magic
Her glass breaks
She make harry clean the mess
Harry yells at her to stop her bad mouthing his parents
Really starts to use his magic
Harry went against the rule of not being allowed to use magic outside of Hogwarts to protect his deceased parents from the claims being made about them. I chose this scene because it shows that he did anything to protect them because he is a protagonist with nothing to lose. I will be using voice over to discuss these points
New Scene: Harry storms out
Arguing with his uncle
Threatens his uncle
Choose to leave home
• I chose this scene because Harry’s sense of invincibility is shown. After the huge fight he just got into, Harry chooses to storm out and runaway from his home because it is better to survive alone than to live in that house.
• I will be using voice over to discuss these points
Children of Men
Introduction to Dylan’s past family
Arguing with ex wife
Follows ex wife off the bus
Discussion of him helping her with her plan
Meeting the people involved in the plan
Nonchalant attitude towards the dangerous plan is shown
• We are introduced to Dylan’s past family and how he no longer has one. Dylan agrees to help his ex wife in a plan (to help a girl reach the border) that will put his life at risk all for money.
• I chose this scene because we see his nonchalant attitude towards dangerous situations and it reflects the idea that he is a protagonist with nothing to lose because he has no family. I will use voice over to discuss these points
New Scene: Dylan tries to escape from plan
Trying to escape past the men in the car
Has the men follow them but he continues trying to get the car out of there
Success in escaping
• Dylan tries to escape from the other people that were involved in the plan to get the girl to the border because he realizes they have bad intentions. I chose this scene because Dylan puts his life in danger, showing his sense of invincibility, and succeeds in escaping.
• I will be using voice over to discuss these points
New Scene: Last point before the border
She sees a pool of blood, it’s Dylan’s
He’s been shot
• The girl and Ryan have defied all odds throughout the movie and have made it to their final point before the border. I chose this scene because Ryan still acts as though he has nothing to lose, even after knowing he has been shot.
Gravity
Discussion of Ryan’s past family
We are introduced to the death of her daughter
• I chose this scene because here we are told that Ryan has no family. This introduces the reoccurring theme of a lack of family for the protagonist that leads them to feel as though they have nothing to lose.
New Scene: Ryan trying to get to earth
• I will be using voice over. In this scene, Ryan is in a spacecraft trying to get back to earth. I chose this scene because she has a monologue in which she confidently exclaims that she knows her odds of making it to earth alive are very low, but that she is willing to risk it all to find out: showing her sense of not having anything to lose
Ryan finally reaches earth
Spacecraft has landed
Ryan swimming to the top
• I will be using voiceover to discuss how Ryan has made it out of the space craft and has survived. I chose this scene because as she looks out into the world after what she just went through, her sense of invincibility is fully showcased.
Creative Writing Portion
• Separate monologues from the perspective of each protagonist that go into depth with their thoughts during certain scenes. We are taken further into their minds so that we can understand why their lack of families have given them the sense that they have nothing to lose in extreme situations. What drives their invincibility ?
Live Action Portion
• I will read each monologue aloud and the class will then engage in conversation with me. I will be taking on the role of each character and the class will have to guess which monologue belongs to which protagonist. They can then ask me questions about my actions and why I thought the way that I did in the scenes shown or why I did the dangerous things I did.
