    Mise-en-Scene in Napoleon Dynamite In Napoleon Dynamite (Jared Hess, 2004), the character known as Napoleon Dynamite (Jon Heder) is quite a unique fellow.

    mention "Napoleon" is the idea of a short, angry, and bossy little man who is aggressive to compensate for being little, in other words having a "Napoleon Complex". Ironically the idea that Napoleon was a short man is false as he was average height for his size at the time.
