Introverts in Film

FILMS NANCY'S READERS RECOMMEND
AND THEIR COMMENTS


10.01.2004 High Heels by Pedro Almodovar, character played by actress named Abril (lead role)


9.20.2004 Harriet the Spy

9.20.2004 Ethan Hawke play one of my favorite characters in Dead Poet's Society with Robin Williams.  Ethan Hawke was the shy kid, but in the end the hero.  This story shows the best in infp's.


12.5.2004 David DeVaughn (infj Counselor type) The Searchers, Caddy Shack, Shawshank Redemption, Jeremiah Johnson, Butch Cassidy & The Sundance Kid, The Natural, We Were Soldiers, Lethal Weapon, The God Father

9.19.2004 Drop Dead Fred Asia (Asia is an intp introvert,"the architect") I don't know if this is for a real or a joke, Nancy

9.19.1004 (The Dead Poets Society)-The hero was the shy guy. I don't remember his name off hand.  But he was a perfect INFP character and was the real hero of the story.  I love this film.  It shows the strengths of INFP's. -- Cindy

7.26.1004 (Waking Life)-Brilliant movie about dreams and existence after death. Very dreamlike quality, one of those movies that makes you think about life, love 'em. Most of the characters you meet in this movie seem somewhat introverted, spare a few. The main character portrays stirrings of an introverted nature (forgot his name!), the journey he takes is very dream-like and imaginary, much my life. -- Braven [Braven is an infp introvert]

6.24.2004 The Remains of the Day and Winged Migration

6.2.2004 HELLBOY

  1. Dr. Bruttenholm(very much an introvert)

  2. John Mayers (the FBI agent -- he projects introversion)

  3. Hellbiy himself (with and apart from :))

  4. If you notice, with the exception of Manningg, all the people who work at the Bureau are very clearly intorverts.

  5. The scene in Rasputins mausoleum (the one with the MASSIVE travelling pendulum bob-- ... when that young FBI agent is literally 'blown apart' due to the very extroverted Manning arguing with 'Big Red')

  6. Whilst in the cemetery, Manning making pronouncements while the rest of our introverts yield to Hellboy
    and willingly follow his lead.


    These are just a few that I can remember:))

6.2.2004 American Beauty - Jane Burnham and Ricky Fitts

These two epitomize the feeling introverts have of being "different" and "separate" from the rest of society

6.2.2004 The new 'Harry Potter' film is VERY STRONGLY introvert:)) -- James
