For this activity my friend and I chose to discussed two of the themes in the movie, we recorded it in this blog post.
Neglect
Coralines parents neglect her and don't pay attention to her often leaving her alone for their own lives and work. As an only child Coraline didn't have any siblings to keep her company, so she annoys her parents most of the time, when they have important things to do like work. They often see Coraline as a roadblock as she often gets in their way. Growing up Coraline would have had to try to entertain herself, this shows in her love of exploring.
Versions of Reality
The differences between the other world and reality look very alike but different in some ways. For example, reality is boring and without much light. But the other world is bright and exiting. This show Coraline's perspective of the respective worlds, reality is dull because Coraline finds it dull, and the other world is bright and colourful because it's new and exiting. But by the end reality is brighter and cleaner because it is less boring, and the other world looks creeper as the truth is revealed.
