P1-05: Childrens Film Opening 2009/10

Character in Lemony Snicket's Series Of Unfortunate Events:

The children characters in Series of Unfortunate Events (2004-Brad Silberling) do not conform to the usual character in a children's film. Each child has an unusual qualities not typical of a children's film; e.g. Violet Baudelaire has the talent of inventing, Claus Baudelaire reads many books and takes in all the information, and Sunny has the very unusual quality of biting things. These qualities shown in the introduction suggest that these qualities will help them find their solutions to their problems during the film. Also, the situation that the children are in; their parents are dead and they are adopted. This is not a theme which would normally be aimed at children. The introduction of the children shows the mystery of the children because you only see them from behind. The character of Lemony Snicket shows the mystery of the film, because his face is blacked out, not revealing his identity.
