Coraline

Coraline by Neil Gaiman is about a young girl named Coraline Jones discovering a door to her other life, other parents, and other struggles.I believe this book was excellent because the author Neil Gaiman,really went into detail about Coraline as a character. He wrote about her surroundings and the new things she discovers behind the door often describing every step she takes.Coraline Jones does not narrate the story but oddly enough, her thoughts and feelings are the only one’s shared throughout the story.In the book the conflict is presented when Coraline ventures through the door and soon after she is not able to escape the dimension she has entered.She gets trapped in the dimension and is faced with the seemingly good other parents real…

For my film review, I deiced to do one of my all-time favorite movies by Henry Selick titled Coraline. Let me start by saying while Coraline is a beautifully created family film it is not for all children like it was advertised. Coraline is much more of a whimsical horror that not every child would be able to handle. Coraline is about a twelve-year-old girl named Coraline. She moves with her family from Michigan all the way to Oregon to an old house called the pink palace. There she feels bored…

The trailers for Coraline and Paranorman both portray the concepts of courage needed to overcome hardships in life, such as saving those who can’t help themselves and bullying. Both trailers reveal the protagonists unhappiness with mundane life, before focusing on ways to overcome the repercussions of their actions (Coraline escaping reality and Paranorman using his abilities to benefit the community). Both trailers reveal the unhappiness of both protagonists, and draws the audience in with the…

Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold, and the novella Coraline by Neil Gaiman, both of which use details and formal features that reinforce the ideas vocalized…

After discovering the strange neighbors, she is still not satisfied. One night Caroline goes into the little door she found in her house and finds a “better” life she thinks until her other mother turns evil. When Caroline goes back to her real family, they are gone because the other mother took them, so Coraline has to go back and find them along with the lost eyes of the other kids that the other mother took. I find Caroline to be one of my all time favorite movies, because it has great…

horror movie- Coraline. After taking a breather, I finally agreed to sit down and give the movie a fair shot; eventually, Coraline had become the most amazing film I had ever seen. This fictional movie, released in 2009, tells the story of a young girl who is unhappy with the life she is currently living and wishes to have everything she could dream of. When her dreams finally come true, Coraline quickly learns that having everything she wants requires a lot sacrifices- sacrifices that no little…

CREEPY is one way to describe “Coraline”. When I think of PG rated movies I imagine a pleasant family movie with singing and laughter. This is not one of those films. It's more like the children’s version of “Texas Chainsaw Massacre”, of course without the actual killings, but still the presence of ghost spirits of children who didn’t realize the dangers in time. And as always the curious and adventurous ones wind-up dead. This movie might have a familiar feel because the…
