        abstract = {Movie as a part of literary works is worth to be analyzed. For the reason,
movie has audio-visual element that make it is more complex, complete, and
dramatic than other literary work. Rise of the Guardians movie is chosen as the
object of this study. This movie shows the struggle of Jack Frost as the main
character in determining his way of life. This is religious movie that describes his
journey in obeying God?s command life phase to be a new guardian for children.
This study uses objective approach by applying Soren Kierkegard?s existentialism
theory and it is supported by film theory. The writer focuses on Soren?s stage of
life existentialism concept to help in analyzing the stage of life that is determined
by Jack. After analyzing the data that have been found, the writer concludes that
Jack passes three stages of life of Soren?s existentialism. They are aesthetic stage,
ethical stage, and religious stage. To make a decision in passing the each stage, a
dread or anxiety is needed for making a ?leap of faith?. Jack passes all of those
stages, but his aesthetic stage is different a bit because sometimes he can be a
good mannered person and can be an ill mannered person. It is also because every
human passes that stages in different way one another. He also passes the ethical
stage which is a bit different because he follows his ego to find his memory box
without permission from Tooth Fairy. Thus, it depends on their choice because
they have their self-center to determine their lives.}
