Mia Thermopolis.
2. Who is the main character
Mia, a socially awkward American girl, becomes princess of Genovia when her long-absent father, the Crown Prince, dies. She’s taught how to behave perfectly. However, things get out of hand when the media gets hold of the story, putting Mia in the spotlight. On top of this, she must make a choice between continuing the normal life of a San Francisco teen and stepping up to the throne.
About the main character
The movie explores the theme of responsibility in an intelligent and humorous way. The most memorable scene is towards the end of the movie when, during Mia’s darkest moment of self-doubt, she is touched by a letter her father left her. “Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgement that something else is more important than fear.” It’s one of the most unforgettable lines from the movie.
