In support of the town’s inability to face the truth and the dangers in not doing so, Hitchcock uses several allusions to the idea of blindness in the film. For example, as Lydia Brenner discovers the farmer murdered in his home, she notices his eyes have been pecked out. Also, just before Cathy’s birthday party is broken up by a bird attack, the children are seen indulging in a game of blind man’s bluff. Finally, as the schoolchildren flee from a vicious attack by crows at the school playground, the crows knock down one of the children, breaking her glasses and leaving her virtually blind. Hitchcock uses these images to illustrate the danger of complacency and the blindness that can come with
The Joker looks on proudly, in his demented eyes he sees them falling dead with big smiles on their faces. However, Joker is upset that Batman doesn't shown up. Bruce is in the hospital with Lorna saying he won't leave her, but Alfred appears and informs him of the carnage ensuing, leaving him his batsuit. Later at a circus, Joker poses as an ordinary clown and causes a riot when he kills a man in front of his own daughter by spraying a strange green chemical in his face (having offered the little girl the choice of whether she wanted to be sprayed by the clown or whether it should be "Daddy"). When Joker sees a report on how Batman hasn't shown up, he becomes upset that he hasn't appeared, even when he rounded up other criminals so he'd have only him to contend with.

They do hear plenty of rumours though from characters in the novel, building an aura of mystery and fear around Boo. The themes that Arthur Radley brings out include fear, compassion & forgiveness and youth. It brings out the theme of fear because the citizens of Maycomb are all scared of Boo and gossip and tell rumors about him like “Radley pecans would kill you” (Lee 11), “A baseball hit into the Radley yard was a lost ball and no questions asked” (Lee 11), “People said he went out at night when the moon was down, and peeped into windows” (Lee 10), “When people’s azalea’s froze in a cold snap, it was because he had breathed on them” (Lee 10) and “Any stealthy small crimes in Maycomb were his work” (Lee 10). The portrayal of Arthur Radley reveals the theme of compassion & forgiveness because at the beginning Scout and Jem think Boo is a “malevolent phantom” (Lee 10) and later in the novel they begin to realize that Arthur is a really good person and he just wants to help out. Jem realizes this when he says, “…he ain’t ever harmed us, he ain’t ever hurt us, he coulda cut my throat from ear to ear that night but he tried to mend my pants instead” (Lee 96).

Scout is fooled by her brother to be the first to ride in it unaware that he was furious for her offensive comment on hot steams.
Our family is all dressed up, and I can smell the evening’s food rooms away and hear the ending sounds of the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day parade on the TV downstairs. We seem like a classic, cookie-cutter family. And then the holiday really begins. My grandma is usually the first to arrive, complete with her leopard-print duffle bag she carried everywhere with her. After her I hear the front door open again and know that, from this point on, the house won’t have another moment of silence.
