For The Birds
"For The Birds" has no narrator, the story tells itself. Instead the way the film plays out narrates the story because as the film goes on one sees and understands whats is going on, with out having a narrator tell the story.
The spectators supply the meaning of what is being presented in this film, because the spectators know that the blue bird is being look down on by the little small birds at the start of the film.
Information that we provide to understand the film is, we know the whats going on in the film even though theres no narrator to guide us through . Other information that we provide is our understanding of the situation that is at hand .
The story is realist because everything happens in a chronological order during the same time period. The story is not arranged in any particular way, it is very "straight forward".
This short film with out a doubt is a comedy. Because just the thought of the film being a animation gives it a comical appearance. The plot supports the comical genre of this film because it is amusing to see the situation the small birds are put in. Also the irony involved with this film makes it even more amusing to watch.
In this film the small birds represent a ungenerous human trait because when the birds saw the big blue bird he was being outcasted from the rest of the group. The big blue bird represents a curious human trait because even though the blue bird did not physically fit in with the small little birds he was curious to go see what the small birds were doing.
