Katniss has to kill the other player to win and she has to be the last person in the game for her to win. During the game Katniss is presented as a skilled person with her skills with the Bow.

The action that both Katniss and Petta took made the capitol mad. The capitol just got tricked into the act both the player had and this made the capitol look weak. The capitol leader was not happy with the end of the game he saw it as a defeat because the whole capitol was played. …show more content…

    Surviving the Hunger Games was difficult enough, but playing the game at a such challenging arena made that task that much harder. Being at that the Capitol, also meant that she alone could not provide for her family anymore. She would have to count on friends in District 12 to help her family out. “Gale will get her the herbs she doesn’t grow herself,...He’ll also bring them game-he and I made a pact about this a year or so ago…”(35).

    The Capitol could be considered like the Jack, the Capitol tries to instill fear into the Districts so that they won’t act out. After Rue dies, District 11 revolts against the peacekeepers within their district. But why would they rebel now, when for the past 73 years they have had people die in the games? Katniss shows District 11, through a subtle and heartfelt motion, that Rue shouldn’t have died in the Games. She felt remorse for Rue’s district, for witnessing her death because of the Capitol’s beliefs and values. After Rue dies, Katniss is left alone and isolated from everybody else until she finds Peeta. This is like Lord of the Flies, because after the Fall, Ralph was isolated until he found the twins (Sam and Eric) that tried him safe until Jack scared them into switching sides. At the end of the movie, Katniss and Peeta started to eat the berries (just like Sam and Eric helped Ralph), and the Capitol got nervous so they let Katniss and Peeta live. The Fall caused these events to unfold within both the book and the movie. Unlike Hunger Games, Ralph was betrayed at the end of the book, whereas Katniss was betrayed by Peeta at the beginning of the game. In both productions, without these events, the characters would have never gotten to the Fall, or the Fall wouldn’t have been as dramatic. If Peeta didn’t betray Katniss for a time, then the Games could’ve pushed them to…
