Masked Identity Introduction

Masked Identity Introduction: 

   By putting on a mask the wearer is transformed, representing the character behind the mask they are wearing. They become one with the mask. Throughout the film V for Vendetta masks are used, whether it is V’s Guy Fawkes mask or Evey’s subtle mask. These masks become the characters and unite the characters with one another. The mask not only serves the purpose of hiding the identity of the person wearing it, but it also singles him out and make him appear different than anyone else. Masks have always been used to transform the identity of people, in V for Vendetta this act of having a masked identity becomes more than an act, it becomes a lifestyle.
