In the hunger games there are many symbols and i am writing about a few of them
What am i learning? I am learning to identify and evaluate of the different symbols that were used through the movie.
How does this work show my learning. This
In the movie the Hunger Games, They do this thing called the 3 finger salute. You see it a few times like when Katniss and Peeta are up on the stage in district twelve after they had been picked (or volunteered in Katniss's case) to compete in the hunger games. And another scene is when they are in the hunger games and rue dies, Katniss does a 3 finger salute to the camera. This is used as a sign of respect and a friendly gesture.
One of the other scenes is with the Mocking jay pin. This pin was given to Katniss right before the game started as a sign of safety ( to keep her safe ) This pin is worn by Katniss in the games So she would hopefully be safe from everything. This pin was given to Katniss by Cinna and to me this shows a gesture of friendship, and just overall that Cinna doesn't want Katniss to get hurt.
Another scene in, Hunger Games, when they are showing all of the tributes from each of the districts, Katniss wears this flaming dress while riding on the carriage. This has an important part in the film because even though they might be from district twelve, they are confident and that they like to put on a show. She also shows off her flaming dress at the interview on the stage with Caesar. This once again shows that she is confident and when she did it everyone that was watching was astonished by what she just did.
