The main character in this film has mainly bruises, scars, messy hair, and a tired personality throughout the story. However, the scenes that compare her before her death are quite different as they show her in a happier mood and with a full face of makeup while not being covered the bruises and scars she usually has throughout the majority of the film. Her costume consists of two outfits, her red homecoming outfit where her murder occurs and her other outfit where it contrasts her old life to know which is pink and "preppy" looking for a suburban high school. Her props mainly consist of her lipstick and that is honestly it, she doesn't really hold anything else because se is a ghost and the only scenes we really see her holding something of significance is her lipstick in the bathroom scene as she is showing something that she cannot do now that she is in the afterlife, having and holding a lipstick and enjoying time with with her friends. Her homecoming dress creates symbolism, that she cannot escape one of the worse nights of her life, and her other outfit with the comparison scenes are basically just giving context to the audience that there is struggle to get the feeling of the other outfit back, her moral life. The before death outfit clues the audience she was once popular, she is in pink. Her red outfit foreshadows danger during prom, since during that dance is where she gets killed.
Irene was once full of spirit and personality girl, she was popular who was well known and had many friends in the school. Although after her death she had lost anything that she once had in her, and thats her overall spirit. She is still there as she hasn't actually lost anything besides her living soul, but she is now depressed and confused about her life leading her to not even care about her personality. Overall, she doesn't talk unless it is a scene showing her when she was alive, other than that she is silent. The audience can also read her eyes and how tired they are from her having to be on Earth with no interaction with human life at all. Her mental state is BAD like she is going through a lot as she misses what she used to have but since she can't move on physically it's even worse. Her motivation is to leave the moral world and just figure out who has killed her. Her psychological health is deteriorating as time goes by, but since we only see a bit of her life (one day) we just know it's currently terrible.
