I love that moment in the book when Katniss and Peeta see the Capitol for the first time from the train window.

- The train finally begins to slow and suddenly bright light floods the compartment. We can’t help it. Both Peeta and I run to the window to see what we’ve only seen on television, the Capitol, the ruling city of Panem. The cameras haven’t lied about its grandeur. If anything, they have not quite captured the magnificence of the glistening buildings in a rainbow of hues that tower into the air, the shiny cars that roll down the wide paved streets, the oddly dressed people with bizarre hair and painted faces who have never missed a meal. All the colors seem artificial, the pinks too deep, the greens too bright, the yellows painful to the eyes, like the flat round disks of hard candy we can never afford to buy at the tiny sweet shop in District 12.

They both know where and why the train is taking them, but for a moment they forget about everything when such a miracle appears. For them, it's truly a miracle - a fabulous, inaccessible city in which, it's hard to believe, but people live their lives without knowing any problems. But they're just two kids who could only dream of this place because it just can't be real in their world.

And here it is the Capitol, Gem of Panem, shining with all the colors of the rainbow.

- It’s as if in an instant, a painted window shatters, revealing the ugly world behind it. Laughter changes to screams, blood stains pastel stones, real smoke darkens the special effect stuff made for television.

But this is for later, and now there's only the first bright impression, with sincere childish delight. And it's so beautiful.

sorry, but here is my controversial opinion:

I don't get it why most people don't understand the problem of such parallels between Lucy Gray and Katniss. Snow hated Katniss because she reminded him... that erases the whole point of Katniss NOT being the chosen one from her first appearance. No, she's not standing here because Lucy Gray once stood here (especially if someone wants to see Baird as an ancestor). It's not a story of tragic revenge towards Snow. Why does everyone support these ideas, as if the ballad was written before the trilogy and has SUCH meaning.

All these parallels are made for the sake of our nostalgia, good, but not to the detriment of the message of the plot.
