We Need to Talk About Kevin Sequel, Scene Idea.

We Need to Talk About Kevin Sequel Idea,
Jail Corridor Scene


- Kevin's in jail walking down corridor with a female guard
- Acts seemingly friendly to the female guard, laughing/joking with her
- Trips up the guard so that she falls onto her face
- Kevin smiles while the woman cannot see showing that tripping her up was his true intention
- Women stands up with nose bleed and Kevin acts sympathetic, showing that he is a liar and acts to deceive those around him
- When they reach Kevins cell he is locked in, the guard says bye and rushes off to clean up her nose
- Kevin smiles to himself and laughs when she is out of earshot, he is obviously gleeful with what he accomplished


- This scene shows that the character of Kevin has not changed since going into jail after committing the murders
- Kevin is again shown as demonised as he was in the original film, tying in with my study of the representation of youth
- Shows that some characters will never change, wherever they are placed and whatever happens to them
- Shows the true cruelty of Kevin as a character has not changed since the original, shows he has no cause or reason for his evil actions as he carries them out on a guard who is trying to be nice to him and be his friend in prison


- Only character in the scene that was present in the original film that carries over to this scene in the sequel is Kevin himself
- Only set 1 year on from original film
- Kevin's face has predominant bruising and scarring, viewer will work out it was caused by beatings administered by other inmates


- Set in a prison corridor
- Jail Cell
- Grey walls all indoors
- Nothing in corridor other than lights on ceiling
- Cold lifeless feel
- Harsh overly bright lighting, creates tense atmosphere
