      @Carly8Corday 5 років тому +4

      WHO missed the whole point? I've read the story. This short flick does it astoundingly fine justice. Oh, you must mean the editor of the ghost story collection somehow "missed the whole point," though how is that possible? Best if you read the story, didn't just see it in a list of ghost stories and check out the editor's notes to see which ones you want to read. OR! Just be cleaner on what you mean by your comment. Because actually, choosing what stories to read by reading editor's spiels on each story in a collections IS a good way to do it.

He did such great acting in Mr. Nuttle in his mannerisms, tone of voice, and expressions.

    @ohma2538 3 роки тому +5

    Give me answers
    2. How does Vera’s narration in paragraph 14 help build suspense?
    It creates suspense by portraying the three men as wandering spirits who continue to haunt the countryside.
    It creates suspense by hinting at the possibility of someone or something entering through the window later in the story.
    It creates suspense by coming to an abrupt end before Vera is able to explain what supposedly happened to the three men out on the moor.
    It creates suspense by exhibiting minor inconsistencies, which suggest that Vera, for some unknown reason, is lying to Mr. Nuttel.
    3. What does the term “romance” most likely mean in paragraph 29?
    A tendency to daydream
    An exciting story or exaggeration
    A tale about the experience of love
    A mysterious or charming quality
    4. Reread paragraphs 18-27 and then compare the perspectives of Mrs. Sappleton and Mr. Nuttel. How do the differences between their points of view create humor?
    5. In the context of this story, what can we learn from comedy?
    6. What do you think the author is trying to express about society during his time period through this story?
    7. Cite evidence from the text, your own experiences, and other literature, art, or history in your answer.
    8. In “The Open Window,” Vera tells a frightening story to unsettle the family’s vulnerable guest. Why does she do this?
    9. Do you think it was wrong of her to deceive Mr. Nuttle?
    10. Why or why not?
    11. Cite evidence from this text, your own experience, and other literature, art, or history in your answer.

Did you wake up there ever, at all? WAIT: English might be your second language, I just realized.

    Hi, is the image quality supposed to be bad or not? I need to know for a school work. I love the film, it is so good and true to the story. Thanks for hopefully answering my question. Love Chloé
