What is the theme of this movie? How do you know? Write a declarative statement about the theme (what do we learn about the theme - don’t just write the theme; tell what we learn about it)
The theme of the movie is lies are power full and can lead to people’s demise. This is show not by one single act but by the whole story. By looking at the story as a whole you can see that lies can change the way people act. Hugo’s lies get O to kill D and himself. This shows that lies are powerful and can lead to demise, just not always your own demise.
What is/are the main conflict(s) in the movie?
The main conflict is that O lashing out at people around him. O is feed lie after lie after lie by Hugo; because of this O does things that don’t make any sense such as starting fights, lashing out at Desdemona, killing Desdemona and killing himself. Other than actions taken by O that have been listed nothing else really happens in the story. There for the main conflict of the movie is O lashing out at the people around him
What is the climax of the movie? Why do you believe this to be the climax?
The climax of the movie was near the end as he O killed D and himself. This is true because the rest of the movie was just set up and leading to this one point. Before this point there was a few small actions how ever they we all just lead up/setting up O taking his and Ds life. After this point nothing really happen, this one act touched almost every one in the movie at the same time. Also PEOPLE DIED at no other point did people died which is a pretty good point for it being a main conflict. In summation the climax of the movie is when O kills D then him self.

Hugo’s motives are to try to take power and try to become the star player and gain his father's love, he manipulate others players to get them to do as he will and get rid of O. Hugo believes that if O is gone then his father will love him
Why might Odin be vulnerable to Hugo's actions?
