Analytical Essay The “Hunger Games” on opening weekend brought in $152,535,747 dollars. I believe that I will easy top that, being the great director that I am. I will take Richard Cornell’s “The Most Dangerous Game” and turn it into a worldwide hit. I think that I will bring this short story to life using multiple elements of both movie and fiction! There will be both internal and external conflict. The internal conflict will be between Rainsford and himself. Having to use his resourceful actions in order to outplay General Zaroff. The external conflict will be Man vs. Nature and Man vs. Man. Man vs. Nature will be implied in two major scenes, where Rainsford falls of the yacht and has to fight his way to shore. And the other example of external will be when his leg gets caught in the quicksand. Man vs. Man will be all …show more content…
throughout the story.
When Rainsford first gets to Zaroff’s mansion and Ivan points the gun at Rainsford, when Zaroff hunts Rainsford, and for all the other men that Zaroff had hunted on his island. The significance of conflict is that Rainsford has no other choice, other than being whipped by the brutal force of Ivan, than to be hunted by the sick minded General Zaroff. Whose love for hunting is so extreme he hunts men. Another element I will add to Cornell’s work is key, suspense. Suspense grabs viewer’s attention, and at times makes the audience predictable, tense, and even excited. Suspense will be added to “The Most Dangerous Game” starting when Rainsford goes to Zaroff’s mansion. In the story Rainsford refuses to go into Zaroff’s library, but in the motion picture he will. This scene will be terrifying and full of suspense as Rainsford is lured in and is forced to see all the severed human heads that were once Zaroff’s hunt. This key element will also happen when Rainsford is sent out to hide from Zaroff. Towards the end of the hunt, when Rainsford last trap gets set off and
he runs and jumps into the ocean. And the last major part of suspense will be when Rainsford is in Zaroff’s room towards the end of the story. There will be more dialogue, and Rainsford will then begin to hunt Zaroff. I will add movie elements as well as literature elements. Combining the two will make a great movie, and the best version of “The Most Dangerous Game.” I will make the best version of this short story, and it will break box office records. In this motion picture I will use multiple elements in order to make an award winning film. I will use; conflict, suspense, plot, conflict, atmosphere, and setting. All of these elements put together will make a great movie. This movie will bring fame and glory not just to the actors but the directors as well. I guarantee it will beat the similar movie, “The Hunger Games” by Gary Ross. Thank you for reading Paramount Pictures.
