The list could be endless with mentions of double crossing‚ and criss-crossing‚ however each example is very effective and important to the film. One double that truly sticks out is that of Bruno and Guy. “Doubled” together in the film‚ they constantly are double crossing each other‚ and yet are completely opposite personalities shown in the film. One could argue that this is shown in the

The short stories “The Red Headed League” written by Arthur Conan Doyle and “Lamb to the Slaughter” by Roald Dhal‚ along with the T.V. episode “Third Floor Flat” directed by Christopher Gunning all use suspense to engage their audiences. Dhal uses both creativeness and clever use of manipulation of plot structure to intrigue the reader and build suspense. Similarly‚ Gunning misleads the audience’s interpretations

Stranger Danger Making sure children are aware of the dangers that strangers can present without scaring them is a fine balancing act. If children are to spend anytime at all out of sight from parents/ carers teaching them about Stranger Danger may give some peace of mind. Children as young as 3/4 will begin to have some awareness of what Stranger Danger means and will understand what a stranger is and why they shouldn’t trust or go near them. Many local Police forces offer Stranger Danger courses
