Who Is The Protagonist In The Night Of The Hunter

The book night is narrated by Eliezer. A jewish boy in his mid teens. He studies the Torah and lives in Sighet, in Hungarian Transylvania. He also studies the Cabbala (a doctrine of Jewish mysticism). His instructor a man named Moshe the Beatle was abruptly deported. After a few months went by Moshe returned with horrible news. He claims that the GESTAPO (German police) took control of his train and led everyone in the woods were they systematically killed of many Jews. No one takes Moshes story to be believable and he is labeled as a lunatic. Then in the spring of 1944, Nazi Germany occupy

That was another task his father gave him to do. Ben, his father, said, “Listen to me, son. You got to swear. Swear means promise. First swear you'll take care of little Pearl (Davis Grubb).” John would never let his sister stay out of his sight for too long, because he knew she was young and naïve. He would always leave Uncle Bernie to go watch over her, but Uncle Bernie would never understand.

Powell, better known as Preacher, wins over John’s family with his, “flashing eyes and rolling, booming voice” (63). Yet he has another motive—the 10,000 dollars. Preacher is the evil step-mother to John’s Cinderella. He turns John’s entire family against him, eventually killing John’s mother and forcing John and Pearl to flee their home. Preacher puts on a facade to lure in his prey, a clever hunter, but ends up revealing his true figure giving his prey a chance to escape. Grubb’s portrayal of Preacher as a two faced evil step-father further proves appearances don’t always reveal the truth.

Imagine coming face to face with someone who you think is your friend but really it’s all just an act just so they can get closer to what they want. In the short story “The Cask of Amontillado” by Edgar Allan Poe and the movie The Night of the Hunter directed by Charles Laughton they both have main characters who are two-faced. Both the short story and the movie reveal a creepy mood throughout the stories while addressing the theme that not everyone is who they say they are or who you may think they are. Poe uses irony to reveal the mood and theme, while Laughton uses framing shots, lighting, and non-diegetic music.

     The book Night, by Elie Wiesel, is an autobiography about his experiences during the Holocaust. The story takes place in the 1940’s. The main characters are Elie and his father. Other characters are Elie’s mother and sister.

The king’s hands shook as he gripped the arms of his gilded chair. “Set that monster there!” he shouted with such rage, the entire castle trembled.

Cameron, a young man, awoke abruptly. It was another long night in 2257 AD near modern day China. “Another nightmare,” he whispered under his breath.Panting heavily, he turns and puts his feet on the cold, damp wooden floor. Standing up, he let out a yawn as he stretched. “Well I guess I better go eat some breakfast,” he said to himself. As he goes down the stairs he passes his father’s room. Cracking the door open he could see his father sprawled out on the floor covered in glass bottles. “Drunk again I see,” said Cameron as he turned to continue walking down the stairs.

hen the air had stopped. Jade had squinted her eyes and saw a glimpse of Becky. Becky was lying on her back side. She didn 't have her glasses on nor were her knee socks or red bunny slippers. Jade looked at herself at the mirror across the room. She didn 't look different at all. Becky coughed but remained sleeping.

She was alone. Wanda leant against the massive mural wall beside her while her eyes were closed. Not like she wanted to sleep; she just felt bored, and she had no faintest idea what to do while anticipating for her uncle to pick her up from school. The sky was limpid that day, and the sun shone directly toward her, and Wanda felt like hell. She doesn’t have any place to be since that day was the construction’s day on the nearby road in front of the school. Therefore, no student allowed running across or waiting close to the road while the construction happened. Wanda had no choice but sat on the dusty floor while the thick chemistry book set under her butt as she used it as her cushion.

Pearl is the lovechild of Hester and Dimmesdale, the mark of their sin. In the novel, Pearl is

"Sadly, yes...... I'm serious." Miyuki runs a hand through her hair. "I've been trying to save money to get him some help but...... I'm only a first year, ya know? I'm not really capable of much..........."

What is it like to spend a night in the forest. This is relevant because Draper and I have spent a night in a forest before. The night was cold and tough to go through all though I had a sleeping bag. It was creepy I could hear things creaking in the distance. I also had to walk outside of the tent to use the bathroom, or get food out of the cooler. The night ended up being terrible.

Pearls main problem was being mean to others and not being mature. She had a lot of small problems that all come together into one big problem which are not accepting her real father Dimmesdale, not letting her mom change her appearance and being mean to the other kids in town. When Pearl finds out Dimmesdale is her father she does not accept Dimmesdale at all. Pearl does not like Dimmesdale because he would not be seen around town or on the scaffold with Pearl or her mother. As the novel continues Dimmesdale continues to talk to Hester and Pearl more and more often, but never in public. Until one day Dimmesdale decided to be brave and stand on the scaffold with Hester and his daughter Pearl. After that Pearl finally accepted Dimmesdale and actually gave him a kiss to show that she forgave him. Another big problem Pearl had was not letting her mom take off the scarlet letter or put her hair down. In the forest Hester and Pearl met with Dimmesdale so they could talk alone. While Hester and Dimmesdale

Because of Dimmesdale’s encounters with Pearl and Hester, Pearl gains a new hope for a future which involves joy and healthy relationships while excluding loneliness. At one time, Pearl was considered “an imp of evil, emblem and product of sin”, but with the help of Reverend Dimmesdale, she was able to counter those insults and, instead, plan a positive future for herself (Hawthorne 85). Her relationship with Dimmesdale gave her an example of what a true family is like. In the novel, Pearl asks her mother, "Doth he love us? ...will he go back with us, hand in hand, we three together, into the town?" (Hawthorne 191). Pearl wants more than anything to leave behind the guilt and sin and be in a loving relationship with her parents. This scene motivates her choices for the rest of her life by forcing her to choose happiness instead of falling into remorse
