SIMILAR CHARACTERS

Cady Heron from Mean Girls My Character

SIMILARITIES

My main character represents Cady from Mean girls because they have a lot of similarities. Both the characters get bullied at school and struggle to make any friends. They often are alone when at school and try to do what they think is right. They both then join a different type of social group and start to experience new things that they aren't comfortable with, but do these things in order to fit in with the group.

At the beginning of the film they both want to escape from their life and go to a different surrounding so that they can be happy and do things the way they want to.

Both the characters then go back to their original self at the end of the film so that they can lead a better life, as the one they thought would benefit them more, turned out terribly.

COSTUME, HAIR AND MAKEUP

Both of the characters don’t conform to the stereotypical girly image at the beginning of the movie. Instead they choose to wear jeans and checked shirts of dull colours.

My character wears makeup and has wavy hair with a fringe. This character looks stereotypically more depressed because of the way she styles her hair and makeup.

Cady Heron however at first doesn’t wear any makeup and wears her hair in a simple pony tail. This is unlike most of the girls in her school who decide to wear makeup and style their hair in various different ways.

DIFFERENCES

My character leaves her school and her home so that she can find a new surrounding that she will hopefully be happy in. Whereas Cady stays at her current location and makes friends that she can have fun with and be comfortable around.

My character doesn’t have any true friends that she can turn to. Cady has friends in the middle of the film that she can still talk to.
