	Look What I Found In My Brain!: Movie Review: The Company of Wolves
		The Company of Wolves is one of only two Angela Carter stories to make it to the big screen so far (which is a shame, since so much of her work is wonderful and eminently filmable).
		The frame of the movie is an adolescent girl's dream; in it, her annoying sister is first eaten by wolves, and then the girl herself becomes a heroine in a fairy tale populated by flesh-and-blood incarnations of the toys and figurines scattered throughout her bedroom.
		"Wolves are more decent than you," she tells them all, and in the reflection of a cracked mirror she watches them all change into wolves and flee into the dark woods.

	The company of wolves - 06 February 1999 - New Scientist
		Wolves have been living in the north of Spain and Portugal and in parts of Italy for some time, and they have been steadily moving out from their over-populated strongholds in Eastern Europe and Russia since the lifting of the Iron Curtain.
		Before the 16th century, wolves survived on wild populations of alpine ibex and deer, says Jean-Marc Landry of KORA, a wildlife think-tank in Berne that is advising the Swiss government.
		Because wild ungulates are relatively numerous in the Alps, wildlife experts expect the wolves to turn to wild prey as soon as the sheep are protected.

		The wolves are all male, and the males are almost all wolves.
		Granny warns her young granddaughter to beware of men whose eyebrows meet, for in the full of the moon their hidden natures are likely to emerge, and they will have fangs, and sharp claws, and eyes that glow in the dark.
		She dreams many variations on the same theme: That men may turn out to be wolves, and that little girls should never, ever, stray from the path through the woods.

	The Company of Wolves (1984) (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Granny tells Rosaleen of how wolves can turn into human beings and trick young girls like herself to fall in love with them and breed new generations of wolf-men, who can go from being wolves to being human and not be recognized and end up being killed by the townspeople.
		In the dream that Rosaleen had it become evident that she herself was, or became, a wolf and the final sequence has her and a pack of wolves storm out of the woods and out of her dream as her unconscious fantasy becomes a shocking and awakened reality at the conclusion of the movie.
		"Company of Wolves" has all the fears and horrors, many that have been proved over the years to be totally unfounded, that man has associated with those wild and mysterious animals in it that lead to the extinction of the wolf in most of the places where man and wolf lived together for centuries.

	Analysis Company of Wolves
		To reinforce this contrast, we find the mirror one last time in the hands of sleeping Rosaleen the moment before the wolves crash into her room in the final scene.
		It's possible that either Rosaleen had sex with the boy off screen (unlikely) or that Rosaleen was molested/seduced by an unseen wolf (man of course as wolves inherently represent men) in the forest and the symbolism in the broken egg is that Rosaleen had lost her virginity and is now possibly pregnant.
		The movie is mostly based on Angela Carter's "The Company of Wolves" and "Wolf-Alice." Both stories come from her book "The Bloody Chamber," included in the compilation "Burning Your Boats." She is a literary genius and her stories are all symbolic, enlightening, sensual, and full of meaning.

		The beast in women that Rosaleen’s mother assures her daughter of (after assuring her that Rosaleen’s father does not hurt her when they’re together) is a feminist rebuke of the young woman as hapless victim — as sexual prey for a predatory male.

	The Company of Wolves
		The Company of Wolves is basically a combination of three factors: werewolves, Little Red Riding Hood, and Sigmund Freud.
		It is extremely stylish, if somewhat pretentious, and is almost unique in that it is explicitly a dream from the very beginning-- one of the first things that we see is a close-up of a girl asleep in her bed, and the camera often returns to her between scenes.
		Both wolves flee into the forest under a hail of arquebus fire, and run (with a whole pack mysteriously in tow) clear through the woods and into the bedroom of the dreaming girl.

		The movie creates its dream world on British sound stages, which have been used to make a gloomy, fantastical universe filled with gnarled trees, wicked thorn bushes, clammy mists, torturous paths, and birds' nests filled with mirrors and lipsticks, and eggs that don't have chicks inside of them.
		Wolves are men, and men are wolves, and the message that repeats itself over and over in "The Company of Wolves" is that the bridegroom may be loving and handsome on his wedding night, but should he step into the light of the moon, he may turn into a hairy demon with glowing eyes.
		The movie is based on a novel and a screenplay by Angela Carter, who has taken Red Riding Hood as a starting-place for the stories, which are secretly about the fearsomeness of sexuality.

		WELL, here it is, the first full mainstage production of Scotland's new National Theatre, and if one of the company's missions is to build the audience of the future, then this brisk, vivid and effective 75-minute "musical pandemonium" for children over the age of six seems to hit the nail squarely on the head.
		This is an unsettling story, in other words, full of echoes of dark 1990s themes of occupation, flight and exile, and the sudden powerlessness of parents in a cruel world.
		But if the production fails to achieve the world-beating levels of beauty, clarity and technical excellence to which it might have aspired, it's still a bright, strong, clever and interesting big-scale children's show built around a family story that attracted delighted roars and chuckles of recognition from the kids in the audience.
