Characteristics and features of the villian in 'the Gamble'

Characteristics and features of the villain in ‘The Gamble’

• He will look dark and mysterious, which will add to his character’s personality.

• He will dress in black with a white mask, similar to the one of ‘the phantom of the opera’, which makes the audience immediately know that he is a villain and make them think that half of his face might be disfigured.

• He will speak calmly and occasionally get aggressive over something unusual, which is similar to the stereotypes of many psychopaths in thrillers, who seem calm in the most intense and horrific situations.


• He will move around franticly and always fidgety, to show how restless he is and how his body is unconscious of controlling itself from commuting evil deeds and showing no remorse.

• He will smile constantly and stare at people with his eyes wide open, which will also make him seem sadistic and crazy.

• His hands will move quick, similar to magicians, which relates to his character, as he enjoys magic and shuffles cards in a frantic manner, whilst wearing white gloves.
