consider the film directors choice to begin the movie with nick speaking to a psychiatrist. what effect does this have on the story?

can you provide the statments and i will answer!

normally working animals are domesticated and ruled by a master, a domesticator (tamer), to perform basic and important functions on a farm, for example. the value used in this context is animal labor in exchange for food. it is not so much a contrast to the story told by napoleon and the pigs, since the animals of that particular farm also performed functions on the farm through domestication. the only thing is that in this case, who rules them is a pig, also an animal, but very respected, to whom the other animals lent him submission. that's about a strong relationship of dependency between animal and owner.

ugly things like bugs or something?

can you share the passage so i can answer the question : )
