Task 2

Understanding Character
Wicker Park is a film about multiple perspectives, therefore you will get the chance to be each of the three main characters.  Using the blog that you have opened up you will write a journal entry as a particular character that is to be assigned.  Click here to examine more stills to gain better insight to the characters.  So let's continue to Part I.
Part I: Matthew
The first part of Wicker Park is solely from Matthew's perspective.  Write a 100-150 journal entry as Matthew.  Consider several points when you are writing the journal entry:

1. How has Matthew's life changed in the past two years?
2. How does Matthew feel about Lisa?
3. What does he think happened to Lisa?
4. What would he change about his life right now?

Part 3: Alex
Wicker Park changes when the audience gains greater perspective with the point of view from Alex.  Write a 100-150 word jounral entry as Alex.  She is arguably the most complex character in the film so you may want to think about the following questions:

1. Why does Alex love Matthew?
2. How does Alex view her relationship with Lisa?
3. What is the purpose of dating Luke?
4. Does she have real feelings for Luke?
5. How would Alex define love?
