To start of we started reading this story called the most dangerous game, after we finished the story we watched the film to go along with it. They had a lot of similarities and differences.

Two men, one goal, survival. Life and death situations. No one has ever thought that they would be put in this situation, but these two men were.

When you are reading a good book, most people enjoy a thrilling plot. In a thrilling plot, you may see a scenario where conflict is present. I found that reading a book or watching a movie that has some type of conflict between a good and evil character is very entertaining. “All conflict in literature is, in it’s simplest form, a struggle between good and evil”-Anonymous. What this is saying is all conflicts that occur in writing are between a good character, and an evil character. I would disagree with this statement because in the book Divergent, the main character, Beatrice, has conflicts with other people in the same faction as her. This does not necessarily make these characters evil. In “The Most Dangerous Game” and Divergent, the main characters both have conflict brought upon them, in which they need to fight to survive. These stories also share various literary elements.

It had been a week since Rainsford managed to kill the nefarious General Zaroff. The challenging part was almost over or so it seemed. There was not a clear way for Rainsford to escape. As days passed, Rainsford tried to escape. He tried making a boat from driftwood that he found, he tried swimming, he even tried sending a signal by using a flashlight. Rainsford had become so desperate that he even tried some ridiculous plans like trying to pole vault across the ocean. As a result, Rainsford ended up having huge gashes in his left leg ,which got infected, and he had to amputate it. As days turned into weeks, and weeks into months, Rainsford had lost hope and became bitter.

Resourcefulness is being able to overcome difficulties quickly and in a clever way. Resourcefulness can also be using one’s surroundings for his/her benefit with prior knowledge and experience. In Richard Connell’s short story “The Most Dangerous Game” the main character Rainsford shows these skills of resourcefulness as he tries to survive the hunt. Rainsford is an experienced big game hunter that is trapped on a tropical jungle covered island with another big game hunter, General Zaroff. Zaroff has gained so much experience in hunting, due to this he has lost interest in hunting animals and now enjoys the hunt of humans. Rainsford is put in the position to be torched or participate in a game of hunting. When Rainsford is challenged to this game of hunting he is forced to try and survive. Rainsford is able to survive the hunt because he uses his resources and prior knowledge to weaken Zaroff helping him win the hunt.

In Richard Connell’s, “The Most Dangerous Game,” Sanger Rainsford, a man who likes to hunt for sport, gets stranded on an island called, “Ship Trap Island,” after falling off his ship. Ships that go to this island never come back. Rainsford meets General Zaroff and his assistant Ivan, who is deaf and unintelligent. General Zaroff, who lives on the island with his own rules and thoughts of hunting, shares his ways of hunting the animal he finds the best to hunt. Rainsford has other thoughts and doesn’t concur with Zaroff’s ways. What the General hunts changes Rainsford’s opinion of him. A lesson the story proposes is to not trust everyone you meet.

I would agree with this statement because all stories need conflict and most have a “good” side and a “bad” side, or a person with better morals than the opposing character.
