Comet of Doom | |
| Wild Life (Une vie sauvage) / int_46e7492b | comment |
Comet of Doom: Played with. The intertitles talk about comets and about how they were once regarded as Comets of Doom in superstition. But the symbolism is obvious in that the young man has come swooping in like a comet to a place where he doesn't really belong. And just as a comet melts when it comes too close to the sun, the young man is destroyed. There's a Comet of Doom in the sky as the man walks out to his death in the snow—Halley's Comet in fact, which did zoom by the Earth in 1910. | |

Break the Cutie | |
| Wild Life (Une vie sauvage) / int_4b316d47 | comment |
Break the Cutie: The main character is presented as a well mannered but rather lazy young man whose upbringing and education have in no way prepared him for life on the harsh Alberta prairie. He starts breaking down from the isolation and homesickness and because he doesn’t properly plan for winter, he freezes to death. | |

Canadian Western | |
| Wild Life (Une vie sauvage) / int_98be75ca | comment |
Canadian Western: Much talk about the "Wild West" of the Canadian prairie; the young man even uses the phrase in a letter home. Subverted in that it isn't very wild; the man just kind of sits around for a while in the lonely flatlands until he kills himself. | |
