    Why He Hunts In The Most Dangerous Game By Richard Connell

    “The Most Dangerous Game” by Richard Connell is a story about a hunter, Rainsford, who finds a deserted island, where he meets General Zaroff who too shares an interest in hunting. On this island, General Zaroff hunts humans that have had the misfortune to end up on his island. Although Zaroff lives in a very civilized home with electricity and fancy food, Zaroff himself is a very uncivilized being. In the story, General Zaroff is explaining to Rainsford why he hunts humans. “...If I wish to hunt, why should I not? I hunt the scum of the earth...a thoroughbred horse or hound is worth more than the score of them.” (Connell, 64). Zaroff is saying that it is okay to hunt people if you are better than them.

    Hunter In Richard Connell's 'The Most Dangerous Game'

    In the short story, “The Most Dangerous Game” by Richard Connell, Sanger Rainsford and General Zaroff are similar in many ways. From the beginning to the end, it becomes more clear how they are similar when Zaroff challenges Rainsford to a game where both men play roles as hunters and huntees. Each man uses his own skill set to survive the other's way of hunting, although in the end Rainsford ends up winning and Zaroff is killed. One main reason the protagonist, Rainsford and the antagonist Zaroff are alike is because both men have a drive to hunt. For example, Rainsford knows how to hide, set traps and outwit his enemy. General Zaroff states, “Not many men know how to make a Malay…

    The Hunt Movie Analysis

    For me, there is nothing I enjoy more (almost) than reviewing indie films. I am one that seeks out those who could benefit from the extra promotion, and although it can be difficult to sometimes squeeze it into my schedule, I am happy to help when I can. And that is exactly how I feel with The Hunt. This is an independent film, and it just so happens that Kyle Smithers, director of this film, was kind enough to give me the chance to review it. And the fact that it stars Rick Ravanello, one of my favorite actors (and people, for that matter), makes this particular review even more gratifying.…

    Sunset Boulevard Film Analysis

    The narrator takes us down the dark, creepy streets of Sunset Boulevard; where the audience discovers a dead man lying face down in a swimming pool. In order to analyze this mysterious murder, the narrator reverts 6 months back to where it all began; when Joe Gillis encounters has-been superstar Norma Desmond and her loyal Butler Max, living in what he thought was an unhappy deserted mansion. The film creates a sense of anxiety and suspicion when investigating the private fantasies of the femme fatale Norma Desmond, and demonstrates the catastrophe evoked after exposing her to the truth. Sunset Boulevard shows us just how dark Hollywood can be, through lies, abandonment, and destruction. Scriptwriter/Anti-hero Joe Gillis struggles to find work in his competitive career; he is often rejected, and has no one to help him fix his financial crisis until he meets estranged Norma Desmond who seduces him with her fortune. Desmond lives her life stuck in the past and dreams of returning to the pictures; but she is needy, lonely, and abandoned by directors, fans and absolutely everybody except her Butler Max who loves her dearly. Max discovered Norma at a young age and introduced her to Hollywood. For that reason, Max feels responsible for the way Norma’s life turned out after the switch to talking pictures, and creates this fantasy world where she isn’t forgotten. In the film, Norma and Max are completely disconnected from the rest of the world, and Joe uses Norma to his advantage only to end up stuck in her world.…
