Pirates of the Caribbe… 5
We will be watching the 2003 film “Pirates of the
Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl” in class
over the next few days. As we watch, I want you to
pay close attention to TWO different characters (the
choices are yours to make) and take notes on their
characterization (see below for what I mean by that).
After the film, you will write a two-page, double-
spaced, analysis of the characters (1 page per
character). In your analysis, discuss: 1. The actor’s
ability to “stay in character”; for example, do you
ever feel that the character Will Turner is everjust
Orlando Bloom in a pirate’s costume? Discuss what
the actor did well to stay in character, or how the
actor fell short. 2. The actor’s “physicality,” or his/her
movements, gestures, etc., and how they ADDED To
or TOOK AWAY FROM the character they
portrayed. 3. The “spontaneity” of the character;
discuss whether the actor was able to perform the
character’s lines, facial expressions, movements, etc.
in a natural and spontaneous way or whether they
felt scripted and planned.
