Men in Cages: Alienation and Liberation in Collateral (2004) and Phone Booth (2002) The thriller and neo-noir genres have always been preoccupied with lost men in dark cities – the presence of the towering modern cityscape in urban thrillers is often used as a metaphor to demonstrate mankind’s alienation in a sprawling, dehumanizing, technology-obsessed city. “What makes the portrayal of the city [in film] as a wild, savage place plausible to us is at least in part our cultural memory that the city can legitimately be described as a jungle” (Light 155). The urban thriller often depicts city life as a depressing, shallow ...

In the opening lines of Tennessee Williams’ play The Glass Menagerie, the narrator Tom Wingfield addresses the audience and says, “The play is memory. Being a memory play, it is dimly lighted, it is sentimental, it is not realistic” (Williams 1.1.12-13). When he makes that statement, he establishes that he is not a reliable narrator; he is not omniscient. From the audience’s perspective, this statement means that they can regard both what he says directly to them as narrator and the statements he and other characters make to each other as not necessarily accurate. The play consists of his memories ...

Because most modern plays do not have narrators, when the character Tom Wingfield is speaking as the narrator of The Glass Menagerie, the audience will pay more attention to his words. In part this is because he directly addresses the audience, and in part because of his comments about the other characters and himself. In some ways, the occasional use of a narrator makes the play seem slightly more modern in style, at least to audiences familiar with the television narrative device of “breaking the fourth wall,” in which a character on a television show speaks directly to the television audience instead ...
