    We often focus more on the protagonist of stories, but what about the antagonist? Reading all three of the short stories Where Have You Been by Joyce Carol Oates, A Good Man is Hard to Find by Flannery O’Connor, and A Rose for Emily by William Faulkner, they all expand the idea of the “bad guy.” The antagonists are the ones that truly develop the situation of stories, because without them there wouldn't be a conflict, or a story in general... At least not an interesting one to say the most.…

    In life, villains ought to be avoided; in fiction, they are simply unavoidable. Without a villain getting in the hero’s way, there would be no conflict, and a story with no conflict would not be much of a story. Great villains can have a significant effect on the value of their stories, but what makes a great villain? One example is Felix from the novel Keepers of Light by Christine Barnaby, whose frightening appearance, awful misdeeds, and opposition to the hero make him an ideal villain. Barnaby’s descriptions of Felix paint him as a horrifying creature.…

    If I were offered the role of a the villain or the hero in a movie, I would absolutely choose the villain because of their many layers of complexity. Also because, nine times out of ten, being the hero tends to be a very stereotypical role. The hero usually comes from a tough or troubled background, overcomes that adversity to rise above and saves the day. It is typically cut, dry and in many cases predictable; while on the other hand, the villain is not always revealed or identified immediately. A villain typically has a complex backstory that many do not know until late in the movie, so the actor or actress faces the challenge of having to let that complex backstory come through, without giving too much away.…
