It is an obvious one because Billy is always flowing through time but his time on planet Tralfamadore and what he learns and tells everyone towards the end is in my opinion what the book is really about. How you cannot control what is going to happen and you should not try to like when Billy knows he is going to get killed in Philadelphia but still goes and gets killed. The point of view is first person and it’s through Billy. It is not first person like video games where you do not see the person but more like every scene has Billy in it and he is usually the focus of the scene. We do not get to know Billy’s exact thoughts but his actions usually shows what is thinking. From what I can remember from the book is that it is not a first person point of view but more like a narrator that does not know everything. The movie did not contain a narrator like the book did. Billy is developed in a very strange way over the course of the movie because you see the timeline of his life in the wrong order. You learn how his dad was one scene where he throws him in the pool telling him to swim or sink but before that you see him getting an award for the lion’s club. Towards the end of the movie you get to see the character Billy has developed into. He sees life through a very timeless scope much like of the people of Tralfamadore. We see this development when he spends the last 20 minutes of the movie trapped on their planet. The
