Lord of the files - Anne, Sandy og Celine


Characterization

Piggy:
He is still talking a lot about his aunt and he is still outcast of the group. The others in the group pick on him. He wants to be accepted.

Ralph: Begins to step up to the leader role (natural leader). Show’s that he is smart, by blowing in the conch to gather people.


Jack: he is arrogant. He is the leader of the choir boys, and the only person who is able to sing a clean C note, which automatically grants him the title "leader of the choir-boys".


Comment upon the voting and the conch:
The conch starts out as a very democratic solution to having meetings, and will keep on symbolizing democracy and order throughout the film. The conch makes the outcome of the voting.


Differences:
The boys in the book starts out apart from each other, and in the film, they are together from the start. This leads to further differences (for example when Ralph and Piggy in the book finds water while on their own, while in the film it is a random boy who discovers it.).

Comparing the clips with the book:
The film clip starts with the boys arrives at the same time and in the book we first meets Ralph and then Piggy and so on. Piggy is also calling his auntie for granny. The voting is also different from the bog and the film clip. In the book, Jack suggests himself as a leader unlike in the film. Otherwise, the film follows the novel quite chronologically.
