V for Vendetta (2005)
The creators of The Matrix, the Wachowski brothers and their team have again produced another ingenious movie, V for Vendetta, an action-thriller movie starring Natalie Portman and Hugo Weaving. Behind the Guy Faux mask was originally James Purefoy. He was replaced by Hugo Weaving after filming for 6 weeks due to problems and difficulties with the mask. This movie was based from the graphic novel of Alan Moore, but it is said that Moore did not credit the movie due to inaccuracy of detail. Certain themes and motifs are followed throughout the film, both in subtle and noticeable ways, such as the letter V and the number 5. An example of which is Portman’s character Evey – E is the fifth letter in the alphabet, and vey, standing in for the letter V. Also, during V’s introduction, the scene had a total of 55 V’s in the dialogue, plus the V he marked on the wall.
