How does this sound for a thesis?
The characters of Pan’s Labyrinth can have very different archetypes depending on how you choose to view their roles in the story.
Our assignment was to watch Pan''s Labyrinth and write a paper about the Jungian archetypes of three of the characters.
I''ve chosen Ofelia - Hero, Captain Vidal - the Fool, the faun - Wise Old Man.
I''m giving a brief plot summary which will center around events to support my choice of archetypes and then will transition into my view of the theme of the movie (ambiguity) and how these characters add to it.
Ofelia could be the antihero. Captain Vidal could be the Hero. The Faun could be the Devil.
