Montag was in charge of burning the books that were found, but throughout the movie his understanding of fire changed.…

    Fire In Fahrenheit 451

    Ray Bradbury’s protagonist in Fahrenheit 451 revels in seeing things eaten and things blackened by fire.

He breathes in fire beneath a flameproof jacket, his burnt-corked countenance expresses fire with a permanent grin “driven back by flame,” while his perfume is the overwhelming stench of kerosene. His existence hinges upon fire so thoroughly that his experiences are defined in its terms. Clarisse, on the other hand, lives under moonlight, atop the grass, and in clothes of white as she radiates fragrances of apricots and strawberries while the wind…
