trappings

The film builds to Jay, stripped of much of his artifice and trappings, finally receiving his award, which includes a tribute reel.

From the outside his life had all the trappings of luxury but the reality was much different.

The scenes include poignant moments as the animals face threats from snare trappings to brutal ambushes and violent territorial battles.

Just because something looks and feels like a highbrow, more considerate true crime offering doesn’t mean that it can’t be undone by the genre’s same trappings.

For a man who always liked the trappings of royalty, the pomp and the ceremony, the loss of his titles is deeply humiliating.
