Hi guys! My name is Alan and I live in Sweden. I have a movie dicussion tomorrow in school about the movie Pleasantville. I've watched the movie twice now but never seem to understand anything about it. My teacher have posted the questions online for us to be prepared.
My question for you guys is if you could help me with my questions. I would really be thankful. I hope my english isn't too bad since it isn't my main language.
The questions:
1. How and why do the characters grow and develop in the film?
2. What values and beliefs about how we should live our lives are communicated in
Pleasantville?
3. How does the filmmaker communicate these ideas in his film?
4. How is 1950s American portrayed in the film Pleasantville?
5. What type of gender roles and expectations are present in the town of Pleasantville?
6. What is education like in the town of Pleasantville?
7. What is the symbolic significance of color—especially red—in the film?
