Some Windows Should Never Be Opened Quiz

Answer: false

Johnny Depp came up with his own look and wardrobe for the movie with the help of the costume designer, Odette Gadoury. Johnny picked clothes he felt most comfortable wearing. He was immediately drawn to the robe that he wore for almost the entire movie.

The rip in the right shoulder appeared in between the time when Mort bought the cabin (Amy was wearing it in a flash back and it looked new) and the time the movie took place, a period of about 6 months. The robe meant something to Mort and that's why he always wore it, and that's how it got so mangled and worn.

Answer: George

The scene where Mort is writing about a guy named George is the only scene where we see Mort actually writing. This is the only writing scene because the writer aspect isn't an appealing element, like watching football, which people get really excited about

This scene was important because it showed he couldn't write. His writing was going in reverse. He deleted the paragraph because it was bad writing. Mort not being able to write was caused by him being alone and that solitude makes it hard to realte to humans, which was what his story was about.
