I don't think there is a movie about it, if there was though that would be scary! I've read the book.

Anyway, at the end it creates suspense and surprise at the end with the banging and opening of the front door because the mother just wished her son was alive, and since the monkey's paw turns every wish you make horribly wrong you would expect the son to come back as a zombie or something, at least not the son she remembered!

In monkey paw how does the author use foreshadowing to prepare the reader for the events to come? Give Teo examples and explain

Answer:

" The first man had his three wishes. Yes," was the reply. "I don't know what the first two were, but the third was for his death. That's how I got the paw."

A fine crash from the piano greeted his words, broken by a frightened cry from the old man.

See the explanation below to understand the examples of foreshadowing above.

Explanation:

W. W. Jacobs was an English author of short stories born in 1863. In the suspenseful "The Monkey's Paw," he uses elements of horror and fantasy. In the story, a mummified paw brought from India has the power to grant three wishes to three different people. However, the paw's purpose is to show people cannot rule their own lives.

J<u>acobs uses foreshadowing at several moments in the story. </u>Foreshadowing is a technique in which information is revealed that predicts or indicates what will happen later on in the story. The two examples given above foreshadow that using the paw brings nothing good.<u> The first example is a line spoken by the Sergeant who brought the paw with him. When he says the first man to use the paw used his third wish to die, he is giving us information that helps us predict the bad things to come.</u>

<u>The second example happens when Mr. White, who is now in possession of the paw, makes his first wish. The piano that is being played by his son emits a loud noise, a crash, once he makes his wish. As a matter of fact, this reveals his son will die for his wish to come true.</u>

Read this excerpt from "Goodbye to All That" by Joan Didion. In fact, it was difficult in the extreme for me to understand those

The answer is the option where it says: 
<span>it helps convey how jarring it was for Didion to realize that life in New York City, which she had long imagined as a romantic and exotic place, could be rather ordinary and mundane.</span>
