These are directors like Christopher Nolan, Wes Anderson, Spike Lee, David…

wonderful spectacle through the Ol’ Bailey, the historic London Courthouse. The film has a variety of genres including that of murder, romance, humour and suspense.

will be new for me considering the fact that I’ve never lived on my own before in a new place. If all goes well, I should have enough experience in this area in five years.

styles and screen play. Wilder uses high key lighting when character, Sugar; played by Marilyn Monroe is in the shot. By using choosing to use this glamourous white high key lighting grants the director the aesthetic of a Hollywood genre film.
