In this scene we see Stephen pointing a gun at one of the
bikers who are trying to take over the mall.
The focus of the camera is on Stephen’s face, and his gun is blurred out
so we can see the lack of emotion he’s showing even though he’s about to murder
a person, this show’s the audience how the character has changed since the
beginning of the film. Stephen is very
possessive which links into the idea of consumerism, we see this when he says
‘It’s ours… We took it.’ Stephen
believes that he is entitled to this mall and that no one else is allowed to
trespass. This is not a trait you would
expect to see in one of the main protagonists, whilst Stephen is downstairs
facing the bikers, Peter is upstairs hiding.
This shows how he is willing to let go of his possessions and challenges
the issue of consumerism.
