The Movie ' The Box '

Before watching the movie the “The Hammer” I didn’t know what to expect. I had never seen a deaf movie before and I wasn’t sure if I was going to be able to understand the movie completely. Watching the movie wasn’t as hard as I expected it to be, and I enjoyed it. The best part about it was that it’s based on the true story about Matthew “The Hammer” Hamill.

The film ‘The Castle’ by Rob Sitch presents a number of distinctive and quintessential Australian Voices, these include ‘the Aussie Battler’, the voice of family and mateship. This response will examine how film techniques and language are used to create distinctly Australian voices and then consider the degree or extent to which they are singularly Australia. The main character Darryl Kerrigan represents the most significance voice ‘the Aussie Battler’ in the film ‘The Castle’. In the High Court scene, the low angle shot of Darryl outside the High Court elevates his status to be almost valiant and how his courage is compared with the imposing nature of the High Court.

The film Pleasantville shows the changes in American society over the past 50 years by placing two teenagers into the Pleasantville show, which was from the 50’s. The movie depicts how there is no longer the “American Dream” and no longer a perfect way of life and the changes the world has made. The world that the teenagers come from is filled with sex, drugs, money, and is very different from the way the world was in which the Pleasantville Show took place in. Morals and values have changed in the people and in society that the teenagers came from and shows it would be impossible to return back to the kind of life style the world had in the 50’s.

The shabby black box represents the tradition of the lottery. It is a major part of the village because it is breaking apart, but the villagers are still using it. However, they are renovating it to keep it from falling apart. “The black box grew shabbier each year: by now it was no longer completely black but splintered badly along one side to show the original wood color, and in some places faded or stained” (Jackson 2). The box may still be deteriorating, but the villagers are trying their hardest to keep it in shape. Gahr explains how the black box is significant to the story when she says that, “This box is a symbol for those in the town because it is one of the only connections to the origin of the lottery… the lost meanings of the tradition have in many ways made that tradition more powerful, because you can't question a tradition once it has moved beyond reason to simply the way things are done” (Gahr 1). The black box may be a symbol of evil, but the villagers are still using and renovating it because they are just blindly following a tradition.

Every time the children talk about the Jack-in-the-box it is grey days. The children have made up stories about Jack and his personality such as him being an evil wizard or that his box is a Pandora’s box and that Jack is there as a guardian to prevent all the bad things from coming out (page 72, lines 3-8). The whole idea about the children making all these stories up contributes to the fact that one of the themes are childhood – since they are children, they do not know how to describe it correctly, so they use their creativity to explain it to each other. When the Jack-in-the-box was placed on the mantelpiece the children would hide it away in the darkness again, which in fact means that the toy was hidden under all the other toys (page 71, lines 10-18). The whole idea of them hiding the toy leads me to believe that the toy is a symbol of something that is not good. Perhaps the toy could represent a person that have somehow harmed the children – violence, assault, etc. Something that adds to this theory can be seen on page 72, lines 15-32 where it is described that even though the children left the house, they still have separate memories that cannot be forgotten completely. They keep reminiscing the Jack-in-the-box, how they went there at night and how Jack would rise from its box and tell the children to come closer. This specific segment triggers me as the reader to believe that there could have been some kind of sexual

The speaker, although afraid of the unknown in the box, “there are no windows, so I can’t see what’s in there,” is fascinated with the danger that lies within it. This can be linked to “Bluebeard” in which the speaker, once again is strangely drawn to Bluebeard even though she knows he is dangerous, “my X-rayed heart,

Day after day, we would pass the mansion building on our way to and from school. Branches of vines and clusters of moss crawled up the sides of the building. I could see the paint, tearing off the walls. People for years have said the mansion building is haunted, but I don’t believe it. They say people have been possessed and killed there. Olivia, of course, believes every detail anyone tells him. To teach him a lesson, we decided to plan to spend the night in the mansion building this Saturday.

The introduction of the black box acts as the major turning point for the setting. It symbolizes an immoral act to the villagers as "the villagers kept their distance" from it. The introduction of the black box into the setting changes the mood and the atmosphere of the residents as they become uneasy around it. Furthermore, the black box changes the
