Report
The world of The Road is visually evocative, as McCarthy takes great care to describe in vivid detail the landscape that the characters travel through. So you can start the book with a better picture in your head, watch the following clip from the beginning of the 2009 film adaptation. Then, respond to the questions that follow. The Road - Film Clip 1. What features dominate the landscape? How would you describe it? Desolate wasteland, trees with no leaves or branches 2. What time of year do you think it is? How so? Winter, its cold 3. How are the characters dressed? What do they look like? Dressed warm, and nomadic. They look very bundled up 4. How does this post-apocalyptic world differ from others you have read about or watched? Slightly more realistic 5. Based on the landscape, the weather, the appearance of the characters, what is the predominant mood that the story creates? Desolation, hopelessness, sadness 6. Toward the end of the clip, the man and the boy make camp--what do the two do together before they sleep? How are we meant to feel about this scene? How does it sharply contrast with the overall mood of the rest of the story? They read a book, and its supposed to make the reader feel optimistic about the characters, through their bond.
