Teenagers in Film

How are Teenagers being represented in the film? 

Who are teenagers in the film? You need to look at how they are being portrayed. How are they dressed? How do they behave? How do they speak to each other? What kind of difficulties do they face and how well do they cope?

Focussing on the teenage characters below begin to build a detailed description of how they are represented in the film. Refer to scenes from the film to back up what you write about each character.

1. Katniss
2. Peeta
3. Gale
4. Cato
5. Clove
6. Thresh
7. Marvel
8. Glimmer
9. Foxface

For example: Katniss Everdeen

Katniss is represented as being very resourceful. One example is that she is highly skilled at climbing trees. This helps her numerous times in the film, most notably when she flees from Cato's group whilst injured. She has the sense to tie herself to the branch so that she won't slip and fall if she drifts asleep. This shows the audience she is adept at surviving outdoors and that she should be taken seriously by the other competitors in the Hunger Games.

This should be one of the many things you could write about Katniss. You need to do this for all the characters. Some characters will require less detail than other depending on how important they are to the plot of the film.
