khaki scout yellow trunk





Boy Scouts, who occupy one part of the color spectrum, are called Khaki Scouts because of the color of their uniforms. The island squad is led by a somewhat goofy captain played by Edward Norton, and although the boys who make up the squad wear the same uniform, each one has a slightly different style and is full of individuality. The way they wear it and put it on and off is different, but the carved wooden clasp on the yellow scarf is interesting, and it looks like they made it themselves, such as an owl, a lobster, The Birds, or an axe. These little accessories and props make the boys' little army look delicate and cute. Even if Lucas Hedges, who is still very young, is riding around on a motorcycle.


Speaking of props, Susie's yellow trunk also left an impression. A vintage American Tourister (although considering the period of the story, it doesn't seem old). Actually, we have the same thing, so we have a lot of feelings about it. Susie takes this trunk full of books with her when she elopes with Sam, and even when it's empty, this trunk feels heavy to some extent, so if it's full of hardcover books, it must be quite heavy. Especially when Susie is walking through the forest carrying this along with a basket of kittens and a portable record player. It's a large piece of luggage that has no practicality in mind at all, but you can tell that it's all very important to her.
