Looks can be deceiving'
Things aren't always what they seem.
Example 1: The beldam/ The other mother
- she starts off as good/kind but is revealed to be an evil soul-devouring metal spider demon.
-Shows theme because the other mother changes gradually over time caroline&audience don't notice.
-Important to the story because it helps the audience understand Caroline's choice when she realizes that having everything perfect won't make her happy.
Example 2: Otherworld vs Real-world
The other world Is a perfect web/trap to catch caroline, whereas the more world is boring but safe.
Shows theme because even though the other world seems better and every way, the real world is actually better/safer because it isn't a trap.
-Important to help the audience understand why Coraline goes back to the real world.
Statement-In caroline, themes, and ideas are used effectively.
Evidence-For instance, the theme 'looks can be deceiving' is shown through the character of the 'other mother. The other mother starts kind but is revealed o be a soul-devouring demon.
Audience- This makes the audience feel that we shouldn't trust people that seem perfect at first glance.
Director-This was done to make the audience feel weary or develop a sense of caution towards a new situation.
Coinciding-what this is the use of colour to show the other mother' os becoming more evil. At the start, she is surrounded by arm colours that make us feel safe, but by the end, it is dark with neon green which her seem dangerous.
-Your link&Ths theme is also shown through the changes in the other world as it is revealed to be a spider web designed to catch Coraline.
