In the Eyes of Someone else
Today in class we had a short discussion about a popular story and how different it would be if it was told in the eyes of a different character. Our example that we used in class was the childhood story about the three little pigs and the big bad wolf and this time the story was told in the eyes of the wolf. I started to think about popular stories or movies that could have the possibility to be completly different then the original if it were told in a different character's eyes. I chose Ghostworld as a movie that might be different if it was told differently. I was thinking about how different it would be if the whole movie was told through the eyes of Seymour. I was curious to see what he was thinking when he got stood up on his fake date, or when Enid started to become obsessive over him. I think that the flow of the movie would be entirely different through the eyes of Seymour. What do you guys think?

I agree, many stories and movies would be different. We might think differently of events or characters. I also wonder what Seymour would think if he knew Enid was the girl who set him up on the fake date.
