Director: Kris Swanberg Stars: Cobie Smulders, Anders Holm, Gail Bean, Elizabeth McGovern Watch Trailer The Buzz: I've been wondering if this festival hit will be anywhere near as good as Obvious Child, which was truly groundbreaking. Gyllenhaal and McAdams deserve all the attention they're receiving because they elevate the material, and Tony winner Oona Laurence is excellent on film as the couple's traumatized daughter
Jul 20, 2011 01:14PM Jul 22, 2011 Arlene rated it 5 of 5 stars Shelves: dystopic, read-2010, favorites, ya-dystopic, young-adult There is so much I love and despise about this book and my brain is still in a mindfog trying to sort out some of the catastrofuck that just occurred. Maybe he had this twisted plan -- They're all so loyal to katniss that they'll kill themselves for her cause -- that would cause katniss an impossible amount of pain
Home - Suzanne Collins
Collins is absolutely ruthless in her depictions of war in all its cruelty, violence, and loss, leaving readers, in turn, repulsed, shocked, grieving and, finally, hopeful for the characters they've grown to empathize with and love. EVER." "A Recent Book That Rocked My Dystopian World"--Jon Scieszka, Newsweek Selected Works Picture Book YEAR OF THE JUNGLE "Important and necessary." --Kirkus Reviews, STARRED REVIEW WHEN CHARLIE MCBUTTON LOST POWER "A clever, humorous story in rhyme." --School Library Journal Sci-Fi MOCKINGJAY "...every bit as original and thought provoking, as The Hunger Games
You could practically see her brain scanning the room, sifting through the data, and then spitting out something dryly observed, perfectly timed, or oddly profound. Lawrence, who is wearing a blush-colored sleeveless top (purchased an hour ago at Topshop), slouchy black pants, and a pair of slip-on mules, immediately notices that I have a cast on my foot and a cocktail in front of me
The Hunger Games (Hunger Games Trilogy, Book 1) Reprint, Suzanne Collins - Amazon.com
New York Times bestselling author Suzanne Collins delivers equal parts suspense and philosophy, adventure and romance, in this searing novel set in a future with unsettling parallels to our present. She has worked on the staffs of several Nickelodeon shows, including the Emmy-nominated hit Clarissa Explains It All and The Mystery Files of Shelby Woo
Katniss Everdeen - The Hunger Games Wiki
It is then on the beach when she realizes how deeply she actually cares about him and kisses him naturally, not for the cameras, but out of her affection for Peeta. She makes her way to Haymitch, where he already tells her Peeta has come to visit him, and told him that Peeta wants to go back into the arena to protect Katniss
To punish citizens for an early rebellion, the rulers require each district to provide one girl and one boy, 24 in all, to fight like gladiators in a futuristic arena. With clear inspiration from Shirley Jackson's "The Lottery" and the Greek tale of Theseus, Collins has created a brilliantly imagined dystopia, where the Capitol is rich and the rest of the country is kept in abject poverty, where the poor battle to the death for the amusement of the rich
Under the leadership of President Coin and the advice of her trusted friends, Katniss spreads her wings as she fights to save Peeta and a nation moved by her courage. In The Hunger Games, we follow two contestants and the rest are nameless, and with the exception of one young black girl, their deaths are meaningless (and mostly off-screen)
The 'tributes' are chosen during the annual Reaping and are forced to fight to the death, leaving only one survivor to claim victory.When 16-year-old Katniss's young sister, Prim, is selected as District 12's female representative, Katniss volunteers to take her place. I doubt anyone who has read all three books would want to be in Katniss's shoes."Not that it really matters, but I wonder if that reviewer's opinion would have changed had he read the entire trilogy
