1. What does Alan’s lecture about velociraptors in the beginning of the film teach the audience? How does it set up our expectations of what’s to come?



2. Provide two examples of costume design in the film. Explain how it helps characterize the characters or send a certain message to the audience?


3. What clues does the beginning of the film gives us that foreshadows that the Park is failing/not stable. (Provide two and explain what it means)



4. What is the film saying will happen if man tries to control nature? Give an example that reinforces this message.


5. When directors mimic a shot from earlier in the film, he does it on purpose in order to highlight the external/internal changes a character has gone through. Compare the two images below. How does the picture on the left reflect Dr. Hammonds feelings for the park in the beginning of the film versus his facial expression in the picture on the right at the end of the film? What has his experience taught him? Does he still feel the same way he did in the beginning of the film as he does in the end?
