Evaluation Activity 2

Bellow is a picture of Jack Windsor, the actor that played the role of the pig. The pig was an extremly important character in our thriller because he represents the crazy and wreck-less member that every famous gang posses.
Below are a few examples of wreck less and crazy gang members that inspired the pig.

Above is Joe Pesci who plays Tommy DeVito in the film "Goodfellas". Tommy is crazy and spontaneous which is what we wanted the pig to be like. Tommy is more of a mad dog rather than an intelligent member of the gang. The uncertainty of what Tommy will do next contributes greatly to the impact that the film has on the audience.


Above is James Remar who played Ajax in the film "The Warriors". Ajax is more of a rogue member of the gang and can even be seen as more of a hated icon rather than admired. An example of a moment where Ajax could be seen in bad light is when the gang are running to catch a train and Ajax stops because he sees a women that he plans to rape. Obviously this shows him as a bad man but also shows how he is in his own world and doesn't really care about anyone else including his fellow gang members. This idea of anarchy within the gang is exactly what we wanted to incorporate into our own thriller with the pig.
