There's a couple of random contrasts I just thought of.
I think the priest's presence physically and outside of the house adds some things to the plot. It's a little ironic that even though Halie has a horrible, unholy secret to keep, she continues to "relate" to the priest. It's almost as if she's going out of her way to convince the priest she's an honest, good person.
Vince and Shelly also seem to start out drastically opposite of Dodge and Halie, both in age and personality. But, near the end, the four of them begin to show more similar characteristics. It's like their personalities are coming together; Halie and Dodge seem to calm, while Vince and Shelly begin to see madness.
Like we talked about in class, the color of their clothing contrast as well. Dodge, Tilden and Halie are all wearing dark, negative, forlorn colors. Then, enter Vince and Shelly wearing sunglasses and a purple t-shirt, respectively.
Anyone else disagree?
