James Mcteigue's Film V For Vendetta

In the film “V for Vendetta” by James McTeigue, V’s plot is to invoke change in England’s parliament as it is a corrupt government led by Chancellor Sutler. Throughout the story, V gets his vengeance on those who did wrong for him and the others in the St.Mary’s Program. “Strength through Unity, Unity through Faith.” Chancellor Sutler’s Government says that this is what the people should believe in to maintain allegiance to God, and allegiance to them. It helps keep things clear to have a good and a bad side. A Government side and a Terrorist side. V uses his messages to show that the unity of people and the faith in others, would invoke change to the corrupt government. V’s past had a large impact on why he tries to overthrow Chancellor Sutler,
but he is also motivated by the people. He believes that they will see his view and help rise up against their government, to dare to be greater. Inspector Finch learns this throughout the movie and is one of the audience's perspective for narrative. He is a character who begins to understand the motives throughout the film while also being intimidated by the Chancellor. V’s words empower the inspector to doubt himself and his peers while using his words to change Evey into one who believes in his words. Over the course of the movie, the people show their change. Early on, the people in the bar and the family’s at home believe in the words of Parliament. However, by the end of the film when Chancellor Sutler’s word goes out to unify the people and to show no mercy, no one is home and no one is at the bar. This shows the change occurring as the civilians believe in his words. The faith they have in him provides unity, the unity; provides the strength.
