Hunger Games - Discussion Question #4




Describe Cinna and his role in Katniss’s life. Do you know of someone who is similar to Cinna? In what ways?

  1. Cinna is Katniss' stylist. He is much more quiet and reserved than many of the other people who live in the Capitol. His physical appearance is described as normal except for his gold eyeliner. Cinna is kind and understanding of Katniss, and he thinks out of the box compared to the rest of the Capitol's inhabitants. Someone similar to Cinna for me would be my Uncle Dave. He tends to have a different way of thinking than many other people, and is like a mentor to me how Cinna is to Katniss. He also wears gold eyeliner like Cinna does. Nahh just kidding (;

  2. Cinna is Katniss' stylist for the Hunger Games. He's unlike the others from the Capitol in that he seems rather normal in his demeanor, compared to a typical Capitol citizen. He is very creative and strategic when it comes to what he does. It's his first time styling for the Hunger Games and makes a very good first impression with District 12. I agree with Cody, Cinna is like a mentor for Katniss and helps her with things she would have never thought of on her own, to use toward her advantage in the games. Someone who is similar to Cinna in my life would be my sister. She's very creative and is always a few steps ahead of the game. Plus, she's really fashion forward, so you can say she's like my stylist too.

  3. Cinna is Katniss’ stylist. He is not anyone that Katniss expected him to be as her stylist. She expected him to be flamboyant, and desperately trying to look younger than he actually is. But he's not. He, in fact, is a remarkable human being who gives great advice. He's well reserved and sophisticated compared to the other stylists in the Hunger Games. Someone similar to Cinna in my life would be my Auntie Bonnie. She too, is well reserved and sophisticated and special in so many ways. She is my mentor, and she helps me with everything.

  4. Cinna is like frosting... And Katniss is the cake. He's there to compliment her taste and make her look better. At the same time he is also mentor, like how Gandalf the grey is to Frodo, and Obi-wan is to Luke. Same smell. The archetypes are just fitted but with more... well I think Cinna is gay? So yeah... Cinna is a GAY Gandolf the Grey... xD

  6. Cinna is Katniss stylist in Hunger Games. He seems like a normal person compared to the others in the past chapters. Cinna is very organized and very good at what hes doing. When he dresses its better than the other stylist in Katniss opinion. He is a very creative person and he knows what he is doing. I agree on the comments above that he is more like a mentor to Katniss. He always watches out for her. And he has her back. Someone who is similar to Cinna in my life is my cousin Dara. She is very stylish and a very creative person. She tells me whats good to wear and not good to. You can say shes my mentor and also a great teacher

  7. Cinna, I would say, is a man that follows and is always confident in what he believes. He is there to always help Katniss and guide her when she is in need. His simple outer appearance, compared to the other gaudy and flashy outfits of the people of the capitol, shows that he is a very humble person. He is a great example of substance over beauty and really knows how to leave a good impression on someone.
    Someone similar to Cinna in my life would be my sister Chelsea. She knows her way around fashion and is always true to herself. Her confident personality always helps in making decisions and has helped her ascend in what she loves, learning.

  9. Cinna is Katniss's stylist for the hunger games. He looks pretty normal compared to the other people on the Capitol. He was very creative when he dressed Katniss and Peeta. He is also a good mentor and friend for Katniss. A person that is Cinna for me would be my brother. He always tells me if what im wearing matches me or not.

  10. Cinna, like everyone says, is Katniss' stylist in the hunger games. He seems normal to Katniss rather than the others in Capitol. He is a friend to Katniss, showing her the right way. He fixed up Katniss to match with Peeta. Someone similar to Cinna would be my oldest sister. She pushes me to do my best and sets me in the right direction. She tells me if I'm doing the right thing or not. So basically, she is doing her job at being an oldest sibling.

  11. Cinna is Katniss' stylist. He's new and all, but he gives a good first impression. He's quite normal. He's like the older brother you could think of, leading you in the right direction and helping you along the way. Someone similar to Cinna for me would be my mom. <3 She's always been there for me. Throughout my life, she's helped me with so many things. She leads me in the right direction, even though it's like she's speaking a different language. (:

  12. Cinna is Katniss' stylist. To her he was way more normal than she expected him to be, compared to the others in the capitol. He pretty much plays a big role for her in the games. Do I know of someone similar to cinna? hmm, im not too sure but I do have support like how Cinna supports Katniss. But not a clothing stylist. I dress myself everyday ;) haha

  13. Well my answer is gonna be pretty much as everyone else. Cinna is Katniss' stylist. He is also her mentor. He helps Katniss with her appearance and overall with the hunger games itself. I thought it was kinda weird and funny that he wears gold eyeliner but hell that the way people want to look. I guess I have two people who are like Cinna, my family. They're all mentors to me. They all give me advice and help me with things in my life.

  14. Like everyone else mentioned above, Cinna is Katniss's stylist. He differs from the rest of the citizens of the Capitol, though. He comes off to me as genuine. He also views the competition in a whole different perspective. My Cinna would probably be my mom . . or my girlfriend. Growing up, my mom would always guide me on what to wear, what to say, how to behave. Now, that title is slowly passing on to my girlfriend.

  15. Cinna is Katniss stylist in the games. He was different from the other stylist, normal I would say. Cinna is very creative with his costume design, something that would be memorable to the people. To describe him, he would be a very kind and understandable guy. Do I have someone similar to him? It would be my parents. They are always there for me and always will be there, no matter what. And they would do anything for me to live a good and happy life.

  16. Cinna is Katniss stylist .He doesn't look like the other people from the Capitol. He's very creative and kind.My parents are similar to cinna. They always look out for me and give me good advice.

  17. Cinna is Katniss' stylist for the Hunger Games. The 74th Hunger Games is Cinna's first time being a stylist for the games. Most Capitol citizens look so odd and 'altered', but Cinna does not; except for his tattooed gold eyeliner. Aside from looks, his behavior is different too. He seems much more 'human' compared to most Capitol people. He's kind and his designs are always very creative and imaginative. I think that my parents are my Cinnas. Obviously, they take good care of me and guide me through life. They know what's best for me. They used to be my stylists when i was a kid, but they weren't nearly as creative as Cinna. /:

  18. The role Cinna plays in Katniss's is her stylist. He is a very creative and very unique person. He seems like the type to think out of the box. You would think he would be like the rest of the stylists but he's not. The only thing weird about him would be his gold eye liner which to me is very different. while the others wear odd clothing and such. I also agree with anjella and gerald that my parents are my cinna.

  19. Cinna is the person who makes Katniss more pretty and beautiful than before (a.k.a., her stylist). He's more than just her stylist though. He's her first friend (if that's what you can call him) from the Capitol, and one of the few people that she ended up able to trust. She has known Haymitch longer than Cinna, so that only enforces the fact that she likes Cinna more (not in a romantical sense, of course). Do I know anyone like Cinna? I don't think I do. When I was five, I've had someone drop me in the water at the beach because they thought that's the fastest way to teach me how to swim, but make me wear robes made of fire? Now THAT'S too crazy. ^_^''

  26. Cinna is Katniss's stylist. He also encourages her to do her very best. He makes her into a magnificent person so that everyone can love her for her to have as much sponsors as possible. He gives her great advice and also teachers her more than just her appearance. Another person who i think plays a similar role in her life is her greatest friend, Gale. Gale takes care of her, he little sister, and mother. He is providing as much comfort and food for her family while she is out there fighting for her own life.
