#Effie trinket movie#

It’s easy to see her affection in the movies because we always get to see her cheering and supporting them. She has a kind personality, clueless sometimes and oblivious to the situations around her, but we love her. She’s described by Katniss as, “ The maniacally upbeat woman who arrives once a year to read out the names at the reaping.”īut Effie grows to love Katniss and Peeta. When she meets them for the first time, she’s impressed because, in her mind, they have manners, unlike any of the tributes she’s met before. She tries to get the tributes to feel the same way, but as a Capitol citizen, she doesn’t understand why Katniss and Peeta don’t share her sentiment. However, we do know that she becomes a big part of Katniss and Peeta’s lives.Īs we get to know her, we realize that Effie is always upbeat and happy. She meets Katniss and Peeta at the 74th reaping.Īpart from that, we don’t know anything about her family or background, or even what other things she does when she’s not at the reaping ceremony.

She is always worried about manners, teaching the tributes to behave appropriately before arriving at the Capital. And after the tributes have been selected she escorts them to the Capitol. Part of her job, that we know of, includes drawing the Hunger Games tributes’ names every year at reapings. How can we forget the first time we met Effie Trinket at the reaping ceremony in her pink hair and spring green outfit? At first glance, she’s only an escort for the District 12 tributes.
