There will be a moment in Our Faulty Stars where you connect with the characters in the film. You see all the terrible things happening to them and you can't help but feel fear and pity. What if it was me? What if I had cancer? There are questions that come to mind when people try to understand what is going on. “Tragedy manipulates the emotions of fear and pity; Revelation, mainly fear and resentment. (Collins) Questions begin to manipulate what we think. During Fault in Our Stars, there's a moment where you realize someone is going to die. Throughout the film you have the idea that someone is going to die, but you still feel extremely scared and sad about what will happen to the couple. It has to be someone we can connect with. “Since the first is for someone whose misfortune is underserved and the second is for someone like us.” When it comes to people, we need to be able to relate to the person, while also being able to separate ourselves from each other. In The Fault in Our Stars, there are two people you consider strong, and in your heart you know it could be you, but you also feel like it couldn't be you. However, where you get the real catharsis is when you look at them and see yourself. “A person or group of people can suffer real harm, real distortion, if the people or society around them reflect a restrictive, humiliating or contemptible image of themselves. » (Markell) You have to be able to relate to the person in order to truly feel fear for people and pity. We know cancer can happen, so we tend to have feelings towards both characters and hope it doesn't happen.
