One Man Band

Based on the film, The One Man Band, the theme is clearly about competition in life. This is portrayed by the competiveness of two talented musicians. With all their might, they played different genres of music to defeat each other. Both of them played their instruments boastfully to see who was better and who would get the penny from a little girl. A very tight competition was shown in this story. Besides that, revenge is also portrayed as a theme in this story. It was shown by the little girl who was scared by two talented musicians. Both of them caused the poor girl's coin to fell into the drain. She was very unhappy and she sought for revenge. Those two musicians gave her a violin and she started playing it. When she played it well, an anonymous passer-by left a bag of coins for her. When both men ask for coins, the little girl teased them by offering a few coins but eventually threw those coins into a fountain and never gave them any. This show the little girl had her revenge.
