Waknuk Monologue
This image represents the scene where David and Sophie spend their late spring exploring Waknuk for places they can play openly, without Sophie’s foot being seen. One morning, they are shoeless at the stream when a boy named, Alan, encounters the two of them. David tosses Sophie her shoes and tries diverting Alan with a conversation, however he notices Sophie’s six-toed footprint on a rock. Alan furiously asks Sophie’s name, but David does not tell him. Rather, he tackles Alan to the ground for Sophie to have enough time to run away. Sophie hits Alan in the head with a stone, leaving him insensible, and David and Sophie run away to Sophie’s house.
I chose to draw this pivotal scene because David doesn’t mind getting into trouble for fighting

    Tituba Monologue

    This scene is important to both the text of the play and the film adaptation, and serves similar purposes in both. For example, it signifies the rising action of the film as it includes the first of many false accusations and confessions. In addition to the importance this scene has to the structure of the play, it is also a pivotal scene for both Tituba and Abigail. For Tituba, this scene is her brief rise to power. Her confession ensures the town’s trust in her, making her arguably the most powerful member of Salem. However, Abigail sees not only the power that Tituba gains through her confession, but also the potential that she herself may have to influence the town. In general, this scene conveys the leverage over other members of Salem…

    Simon Krell Monologue

    Blood is a fascinating hue. It’s sometimes crimson, scarlet, ruby red, or even bold red. Crimson is the stain that’s painted on my fingers, since I just accomplished a mission-to murder Simon Krell, who continued torturing his family members on a daily basis. Although he continued being a dangerous man, it was so simple to kill him that it occurred to be laughable, all the acting skills I needed was to pretend to act alike his maid and suddenly shoot the filthy person. As I laughed, my storm eyes gazed at the glowing sky that had waves of gleaming dots on it. A silver ellipse remained framed in the inky sky, supported with millions of winking balls of fire.…

    Boom! The sound snaps us all to life, ensnaring our senses and shaking every fiber of our beings. In less than ten seconds we're all on our feet and almost in complete chaos. I snatch up my gun and the first few of us rush out of the barracks to find the colonel for orders. Boom! This time the blast is right behind us and our barracks bursts into a roaring wall of flames. The blast sends us falling face first to the ground. All of our fellow soldiers, our friends, were still inside and now the building is crumbling in a massive inferno. "We have to move!" Chris says, leaping to his feet, and the three of us run through camp and locate the colonel. "Grab a gun and form up on the coast line. We don't need to fight on two fronts." He orders us.…

    “I have all my fingers the knife goes chop, chop, chop if I miss the spaces my fingers will come off” Ethan sang knife clanged against the cool tile in between his pale bony fingers. “And if I hit my fingers the blood will soon come out. All the same I play this game because that's what it's all about. Chop, chop, chop I’m picking up the speed.” The knife blurred as he dipped it in between the small spaces in his hand. He went faster and faster, with every clang of the knife I jumped. I shut my eyes, knowing he was almost at full speed. Thankfully, he stopped ending the song without a cut. Using dexterous hands, he flipped his shaggy blonde hair just enough out of his face to see his ocean blue eyes. He gave a laugh and a smile, handing me my knife.…

    Boyle's unique signature in his films include narration, in a prudent and an often subdued manner, is typically tied together with montages and voice over narrations to bring forth an energetic realism, as well as allow the audience to completely immerse themselves into his characters' mind. Coupled with Boyle's fondness for non-linear narratives which can be related to the notions of dream and reality, narration sets the pace and tone of the feature, with the audience being prompted by the omnipresent observations of the protagonist. Boyle’s efforts to elevate vocals to greater prominence is seen through Renton’s “Choose Life” monologue in Trainspotting (1996) or Richard’s expository interjections in The Beach, Damian’s saintly stories in…
