What Happened - Peeta + Katniss are having a Conversation about how the games might affect to them.

In The scene ' They Don't own Me ', Dialague is used to create a foreboading atmosphere. Katniss and Peeta are having a conversation about how the Upcoming games might affects them. This demonstrated  by the Quotes " I don't want them to change me," and " If I'm gonna die, I still wanna be me " spoken by peeta. These show that peeta has a sense that he is going to have to do things that he doesn't  want to have to do Like kill others.

This Makes the Audience feel sorry for Peeta because  he is likely going to die, or to kill others to stay alive. The Director Did This to make us believe Peeta will die Early and that being a Tribute isn't something to Celebrate but a loss of personal autonomy.

This work well with the dark Colours of Blacks and Grey which add to the foreboding atmosphere.This Aspect can be constrasted to when Peeta joins the Career Pack once in the Games Because they are cold hearted Killers Which is what Peeta didn't want to be.

For example, the Tempo is Slow and The Dynamic are Quiet and The Key is Minor to Reflect the emotional rollarcoaster  Katniss is Feeling like the Music, Katniss mores Slowly and Methodically to Cover Rue's Body  in white Flowers. As she finishes, the music builds in Volume, showing the increasing intensity of her anger and grief towards the Capitol.

Starfish Poem

Once upon a time there was a wise man 
who used to go to the ocean 
to do his writing. 
He had a habit of walking 
on the beach 
before he began his work. 
One day he was walking along 
the shore. 
As he looked down the beach, 
he saw a human 
figure moving like a dancer. 
He smiled to himself to think 
of someone who would 
dance to the day. 
So he began to walk faster 
to catch up. 
As he got closer, he saw 
that it was a young man 
and the young man wasn't dancing, 
but instead he was reaching 
down to the shore, 
picking up something 
and very gently throwing it 
into the ocean. 
As he got closer he called out, 
"Good morning! What are you doing?" 
The young man paused, 
looked up and replied, 
"Throwing starfish in the ocean." 
"I guess I should have asked, 
why are you throwing starfish in the ocean?" 
"The sun is up and the tide is going out. 
And if I don't throw them in they'll die." 
"But, young man, don't you realize that 
there are miles and miles of beach 
and starfish all along it. 
You can't possibly make a difference!" 
The young man listened politely. 
Then bent down, picked up another starfish 
and threw it into the sea, 
past the breaking waves and said- 
"It made a difference for that one."

Message: Your Input does matter - even if its so small, Insignificant in the World and One Person can Change everything in One single good Thing and It Influence People to do the Good thing.
