MOVIES WITH FANTASY/MAGICAL THEME

My sister asked me to do the assignment of my nephew about movies with fantasy/magical theme. I just want to share it.

Movies with fantasy/magical theme:

1. Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe (2005)



The Lion (Aslan) > represents God
The Witch (Snow Queen) > represents evil
Wardrobe > represents a magical world where the characters not only find adventures but also find themselves and their purpose.

2. Pan's Labyrinth (2006)



Labyrinth/maze > reflects an irony of a  dangerous world when the lead character tries to escape the horror of World War II.

3. Chocolat (2000)



Chocolate in Chocolat reflects an unspeakable passion/desire.

4. Lord of the Rings series



Ring reflects materialism or loving the world

5. Joe's Apartment



In the film Joe's Apartment, cockroaches are depicted in a different way. For me, cockroaches are disgusting scavenger creatures but in the movie it's depicted as a friendly creatures.
