Theme Guide Booklet - Coraline

 Looks can be deceiving

‘Looks can be deceiving’ is shown perfectly by the main character, the other mother.  She starts off sweet and kind, basically giving a warm and welcoming feel.  But throughout the movie the other mother starts acting a bit weird and always asks for buttons.  It starts to change her looks which then finishes off with her looking like a demonic and unhuman like figure with needles for hands.


Be grateful for what you have

The best person to describe this theme is Coraline. She starts off by complaining about the house and always talking about how boring and annoying it is.  So one night when she found the mysterious tunnel she was welcomed to the other mother.  She loved her and what she did for Coraline,  which led her to forget about her biological mother.  This made her ungrateful about her real mother.


The power of choice

The power of choice is superbly shown by Coraline again.  The simple/easy choices she made kept on leading up to such huge consequences.

  1. I like your choices of themes, they are all very different and show you have thought about the messages of the movie. Next time, try to use more specific examples to really illustrate your point. Well done!
