refimprove date February 2010 In fiction , a false protagonist is a literary technique , often used to make the plot more jarring or more memorable by fooling the audience s preconceptions, that constructs a character who the audience assumes is the protagonist but is later revealed not to be. A false protagonist is presented at the start of the fictional work as the main character, but then is eradicated, often by killing them usually for shock value or as a plot twist or changed in terms of their role in the story i.e. making them a lesser character, a character who leaves the story, or revealing them to actually be the antagonist . A false protagonist is a red herring in the form of a character. Especially in film and literature, the false protagonist may begin as a narrator . In video games, a false protagonist may initially be a playable character, only to be killed or revealed to be the antagonist. Due to the episodic nature of television, it is possible to accidentally create a false protagonist, when an actor leaves a series prematurely or becomes busy with other projects. Example Alfred Hitchcock s film Psycho 1960 film Psycho is probably the first film to feature a false protagonist. It opens with actress Janet Leigh as the main character however, she is killed partway through the film, making the murder far more unexpected and shocking. The death of the character assumed to be the protagonist takes the audience completely by surprise and builds the villain Bates up to be far more fearsome and frightening. Hitchcock felt that the opening scenes with Leigh as the false ... a reliable source saying the character is a false protagonist will be deleted.

A false economy is an action that saves money at the beginning but which, over a longer period of time, results in more money being wasted than being saved. For example, if a city government decided to purchase the least expensive automobiles for use by city workers, it might be termed a false economy, as cheap automobiles have a record of needing more frequent repairs in the long term and the repair costs will eradicate any initial savings. Motivating factors on the part of the party engaging in false economies may be linked to the long term involvement of this party. For example, a real estate developer who builds a condominium may turn the finished structure over to the ensuing condominium corporation which is run by its members once the last unit is sold and the building has passed a final inspection. Longevity of the components of the structure beyond the final turnover of the facility may not be a major motivating factor for the developer, meaning that the result of the application of false economies may be more detrimental to the end user, as opposed to the developer. Individuals may also practise false economy in their personal lives. A notable practitioner of false economy was King Frederick William I of Prussia , who was said by Thomas Macaulay to have saved five or six rixdollar s a year feeding his family unwholesome cabbages even though the poor diet sickened his children and the resulting medical care cost him many times what he saved. ref MacAulay, Thomas Babington.
