Phil 14:17 May 10, 2014
In spite of his big teeth, the main character is he only one who deserves the post he is going through the selection for; he is a very learned man, has got sense of humour, he is extremely intelligent without being tedious. They try to fail him in any possible way only because he wouldn't look too good on the screen, but nobody can actually tell him straight away; he is not even aware of the problem, which he considers insignificant. By winning the selection (devised in such a way that only a few people in Europe would have been able to pass it), he demonstrates that intelligence and determination are more important than appearence. Big Teeth is perfect, because he enphasizes the stupidity of the other candidates(who don't know any other way to insult him) and doesn't confine him to a cartoon character, instead it makes him very "simpatico". Sorry for the lenghty explanation, but the movie is very dear to me and I think colourful nicknames are not appropriate here. |
