'The Hunger Games' offers everything from action-packed moments to heartwarming ones. Here are 10 of the best scenes.
Katniss and 12-year-old Rue grow close after Rue helps her with the tracker jackers, and the two form an alliance, but then Rue gets stuck in a net and is killed by the tribute named Marvel. As she lies dying, Rue makes Katniss promise to triumph in the Games, and Katniss manages to sing her a lullaby. After Rue dies, Katniss covers her body with flowers as a gesture of defiance to the Capitol, showing that Rue was a person and not just a pawn in the Games.
