Danielle Grava 7/14

"Dolarhyde came into the picture from the left with the stylized movements of a Balinese dancer. Blood smeared and naked except for his glasses and gloves, he mugged and capered among the dead."

This is a very pinnacle point in the novel. The reader finally finds out who killed the Leedses and the other family. Dolarhyde is viewing the film he took while murdering the family and he is critiquing himself and is admitting to believing he is the red dragon. I chose an image with Two Face - This entire scene is so creepy. He is masturbating to his murders. Clearly this man is sick in the head and I feel this photo captures his personality. He is living two lives. One as the red dragon and the other as a socially accepted citizen.
