So i thought this could be fun and interesting.
A fairly straightforward game. The objective is simply to add what you consider the theme of the movie in the post above.
The theme is basically the underling basis of the story, the general foundation from what the story springs.
Themes can be subjective, of course. The game is just fun to try to figure out the theme, which isn't always obvious.
It's interesting to see how we interpret each the movie and what themes we come up with that others may miss or see differently.

I'll start.
Movie: The Truman Show
Theme: Raging Against Society/Civilization
In the movie Truman is living the life he is supposed to live. He is married to the woman he's supposed to be married to, works where he is supposed to work, and lives where he is supposed to live.
He begins to realise he is trapped and that society is deciding his life for him.
After great struggle he breaks away and embraces a life unfettered by the restrictions forced upon him.

Next poster should try to theorise the theme of the following movie and then set the following movie to be theme'd by the following poster.
Next Movie: Planet of The Apes (original)
