Pick one of the movies that uses the main character or protagonist’s name as the title. Then, using the RACE method of writing, respond to the following prompt: Explain why the main character’s name (or protagonist’s name) is used as the title. Your paragraph should be at least four to five sentences.
You want to be sure to include evidence (this can be your citing evidence—normally you would include evidence from a text and an MLA citation) from the movie to explain why you believe your character is important enough for his or her name to be used as the title of the movie. Think about his or her importance to the overall story.

Oedipus kills him after leaving home, upset at hearing the prophecy in which he was told he would kill his father. He runs away from home because he doesn't want to kill the man he thinks is his father (Polybus). So he comes upon a chariot that knocks him off the road, and he gets so mad, he kills all of the people in it, including Laios.
The exact line from the book ( Dudley Fitts and Robert Fitzgerald translation) is :
"He was paid back, and more! Swinging my club in this right hand I knocked him out of his car, and he rolled on the ground. I killed him."
What isn't clear is whether he killed him by knocking him over the head, which caused him to become unconcious and die, or whether he fell out of the car and then Oedipus killed him.
But that is in a nutshell, how Laios died.
Hope that helped!
