The story i read was the Cask of Amontillado. it was about Edgar im guessing because it was in first person. it was about him trying to get revenge on Fortunato. he meet him to tell him about this wine he came across. it was called Amontillado and was supposedly the greatest wine ever. he was trying to trick him into coming to the wine celler to get the amontillado. he kept telling him that it was ok for him not to go because he was sick and that he would get luchesci to try it for him so like he planned. but he insisteaded on going himself. so they get there and their was nitreso he started coughing and was hard for him to breathe so he kept saying to go back and he kept saying no and continued. when they got to the end he locked him up and started to build him in with bricks trapping him for ever with the nitre killing him. " the thousand injuries of Fortunato i had borne as i best could, but when he ventured upon insult, i vowed revenge" pg 17. i choose thes cuz the whole story is about revenge.
Edgar i guess was the main character. because it was in first person it was hard to tell the way the book potrays him is very dark. he is also manipulative, tricky, smart, and evil. the other character was Fortunado. he was easily tricked, not very smart, persistant, and weak because he was sick. i think Edgar does what he does to get revenge. i think he took him to the catacombs so know on e would find him. i think the whole sitution was very easy for him because of the situation. Fortunado had a weak spot for wine so he insisted that he go nad see for himself. "i began vigerously to wall up the entrance of the niche". i think this shows that he was a dark and evil person and that he had a lot of rage to kell somone. he had to really hate that person for him not to even turn around when he was screaming for him. you can tell that he was very emotional and supressed if for him to do something so big, as to kill somone.
If i was incharge or creating a short story film i think that my sister Ariel would be fortunado. i wound be edgar. and my best friend nicole would be luchesi. i think Ariel should be fortunado because she is very easily manipulated and you could tell her anything and she would beleive you so the situation would remain easy to accomplish. i would be edgar because im always trying to trick her into doing stuff. not bad stuff but little things or try to get something she has by telling her mine is great and so much better so she will want to trade me. i dont think i would leave anything out because everything was somewhat important. i would add why he wanted revenge because thats a question they never answered and something im curious about. i tink i would emphasis the reverse physcchology that happened through out the stroy to show how stupid Fortunado was. but other than that i think that all. maybe moderize the language too
