Movie: Where the Wild Things Are

Interpretation:
The movie kind of changed it but the original book was an allegory about the American invasion of the Phillipines. Max represented America. He was acting naughty at home so he put on his wolf costume (military) and sailed off to a wild island (phillipines). When he got there he stared into their yellow eyes (referencing how america viewed them as yellow eyed savages) and imposed order on them(like how america threatened with military force and set up a government). But after a while he leaves and leaves them in disarray (america left and the phillipines were in a state of political disarray).
