Heros!

Q: How do different media sources express interior monologues?
In novels, you get free indirect discourse. Movies, however, give you voice-overs, and the viewers physically see the images.
HEROS, however, are completely different. We don't get an interior monologue with them...

"Who can tell the dancer from the dance?"- W.B. Yeats

Do novels loan themselves to being transcribed into media? They are completely different, and they can do different things.

The finale in the book is somewhat controversial for many people. This brings about the heroic sacrifice. Does Victor see his sacrifice? I feel like he is a selfish man. He demands for Walton to continue hunting for the monster. He won't go home to be with his families. These men don't want to be brave, though. And Victor, I don't think is being a hero. He's being too passive, really.

Is there a different form of heroism when looking through the female eyes? I personally do not believe this to be true. Women value different qualities, perchance, but in the end, I don't think that women see heroism different.

Overall the theme in Frankenstein is that Victor is escaping intimacy of any kind with anyone. Personally, I don't think Victor is heroic at all, by this. In fact, I think he is a coward. The bravery in him would be revealed if he cared about someone other than himself.
