Based on the short movie One Man Band produced by PIXAR, the main characters in this short movie is a girl with a purple hood, and two musicians. This short movie is set in a plaza, where a wishing well is located. The themes I studied in this story is competition and revenge.
The first theme is competition. In this story, a musician played his musical instruments alone at the plaza, until a girl came in to throw a coin into the wishing well. When he saw the girl, he started to play the musics more interestingly as he wanted the coin the girl was holding. The girl started to walk towards him and when she was about to insert her penny into the can, there was another sound of music heard from the opposite side of the plaza. She turned around and walked away to watch another musician who attracted her attention to get the coin. This made the music fight begin. Both musicians competed each other in order to win the coin from the small girl. They tried their best to play the best music and tried everything they had as an effort to get the girl's attraction.
The second one is revenge. When both musicians fought, the girl got confused to whom she should give the coin. Eventually, the coin fell down into the drain making her to have a grudge against both musician. She was supposed to make a wish but because of the musicians, she lost her coin. After that, she reclaimed back her coin from the musician but sadly both of them didn't even have one. However, she wanted the violin owned by the second musician as a compensation. She did not satisfied as her coin fell down into the drain for nothing, and because of that she was seeking revenge.
