Based on what you know about the story the title is alluding to, what do you think will happen in the movie? • 3. What fairytales are being alluded to? • 4. What nursery rhymes are being alluded to? • 5. What famous Alfred Hitchcock film is being alluded to? Why would they choose this movie? • 6. What famous chef is being alluded to? Why? • 7.
