Exploring Bullying and Fear in Film

This chapter examines the psychological dynamics of bullying and the power of mantras for self-empowerment, particularly through a character's struggle with a stutter. It also explores themes of friendship, adolescence, and the complexities of young love, while addressing societal issues such as racism and body image. The discussion further delves into adaptations of Stephen King's narratives, analyzing the character of Pennywise and the broader implications of fear and storytelling in film.
