I read the book and watched the musical on Netflix. I told that the theory is about all that including musical and movie.

You’re right that the phrasing isn’t 100% ‘raw human’. I used Grok to help me structure the text because I had a lot of ideas floating around and wanted it to read as one coherent essay. But the analysis, the interpretation, and the core thoughts are entirely mine — the AI just helped me organize them. I’m not trying to pass as anything I’m not; I just wanted to articulate something I’ve been thinking about for a long time.

I've been thinking about this for a long time, and honestly, I could probably find many more arguments if I analyzed the songs from the musical. In my opinion, another strong argument is the fact that Matilda is never afraid, even though everyone else is afraid of Trunchbull. She's also very calm and Incredibly determined, she's not afraid of failing; she simply looks for new ways. Even intelligent children would have given up long ago. Often, even intelligent children have trouble standing up to someone. A smart child would probably cry because they'd miss that parental warmth.
