How Is Lightning Mcqueen A Dynamic Character

Decent Essays
He is left with a sad feeling leaving his friends. At the end of the movie, I saw a more caring Lightning, he was excited to see that his friends showed up to the race to support him in his pit crew. He valued friendships and did not care about winning. On the last lap of his race, a fellow race car gets into a wreck and McQueen helps that car across the finish line before him. All of this showed me that Lightning McQueen was definitely a dynamic character due to the love from his friends.
The next movie I watched was Maleficent. Maleficent was the main and dynamic character in this movie. She was damaged from a heterosexual romantic relationship in the beginning. Maleficent is fairy Queen of the enchanted forest and had huge, beautiful wings.

    Edward Scissorhands, a film directed by Tim Burton, is a gentle dive into a fantasy world that will leave viewers feeling haunted.

All 105 minutes of Edward Scissorhands is filled with relatable characters, a lovely musical score, and seamless acting; it is one of Burton’s greatest and most heart-wrenchingly human films. Invented, rather than born, Edward is taken from his dreary castle home when Avon lady Peg, played by Dianne Wiest, discovers him residing there all alone, unfinished scissorhands and all.…

    Films are universally known to generalize individuals especially in relation to their gender. Though they contain different themes, movies follow a similar pattern; the beautiful, innocent woman is recused by an attractive, strong male. In Carol J. Clover’s article, “Her Body, Himself: Gender in the Slasher Film”, she explores a new emerging pattern in horror cinema where the woman herself becomes the hero. Clover’s purpose in writing her article is to help her audience become familiar with the idea of cross gender identification. This is where the male audience is compelled to associate themselves with the strong independent female.…

    Tim Burton’s beautifully haunting production of ‘Edward Scissorhands’ introduces our protagonist, represented by Johnny Depp, and explores the fictional story of this solitary boy with an unfortunate seemingly threatening oddity, being thrust into a world where he is glaringly blatant in the midst of the suburbs. Despite his intimidating exterior, it is almost immediately exposed that Edward is just an innocent, childlike soul, intent on serving others. The purpose of this film was to delve into the threatening manner of suburbia and its dismissive views on originality. Burton shattered cliches and stereotypes of who ‘monsters’ are by introducing the monster in the form of townspeople. As Tim Burton’s individual ordeals are translated into…
