The Final Scene

further pronounce the limitations on the life Gaston would have with Mme. Colet if he were to stay with her, foreshadowing Gaston’s final decision to run away with Lily rather than stay with Mme. Colet and her money. The underlying care for reality in romantic scenes is also emphasized by Lubitsch’s…

The Cask of Amontillado, a Story of Revenge “The Cask of Amontillado” by Edgar Allan Poe is a tragic tale of vengeance between two friends. The story uses the first person perspective where Montresor, narrates the story on how he bears a grudge against his friend Fortunato for insulting him. Poe does not disclose the insults but highlights the narrator’s obsession for revenge. However, in the narrative, Fortunato is depicted as kind, friendly and innocent while Montresor is evil. As a resulted,…

but have different ways of achieving it. Terence Fletcher doesn’t hesitate to use his own technique of racial, religious, and gay slurs, throwing chairs, and playing degrading psychological game to “motivate” his students and Andrew Neyman doesn’t hesitate to back down and use it to push himself beyond physical and psychological limits. In the last scene of the movie where Andrew is playing the song Whiplash and plays it in…

persona of a killer. This scene demonstrates the impact of warfare on the youth and “how men like The Commandant can bask in the adoration of immature or gullible followers and become despots within the dictatorships they serve”. Because Agu is a young child, that lost his life’s most significant guiding component; his family, and since had none to impress, it much easier for him to become motivated to go against his morals, and let the killing to become a part of his character and his…

may seem as simple as holding a camera, a skilled cinematographer, with insight as to how a scene should be filmed, can make or break a movie. Varied filming techniques throughout a movie are important so as not to lose interest, but certain themes work well among genres. It’s also important to avoid trying to use every known filming technique in a single movie as it can create a sense of overwhelming confusion. A skilled cinematographer is one who brings these ideas together…

set up your characters and location from the first few scenes. However, I have a couple of concerns with the writing (repetition, grammar, readability), format (scene breakdown style), structure (montage, scene selection, conflict), and scenes (repetition, formatting). There is a suitable structure and the narrative flows in appropriate sequential order. The tone of your film upon initial read is engaging. Appropriate filmic drive but the writing brought down the readability. It felt rushed and…

to take one of the most important jobs for granted: the cinematographer. Although it may seem as simple as holding a camera, artfully combining clips, angles, and points of view to give a scene an identity is far from easy. Varied filming techniques throughout a movie are important so as not to generate feelings of boredom and simplicity (unless this is the goal). In addition, attempting to use a huge amount of vastly different methods can crowd a movie and give a sense of overwhelming…

and this scene sets the tone for the rest of the film. The scene begins right after Shultz rescues Django and they arrive in Daughterly, Texas. Shultz kills the sheriff of the county in the street. Afterwards, the marshal and the militia of the town come to the bar in order to arrest and/or kill Shultz and Django if they resist. Instead, Shultz proves that he is beyond the law and instead of arresting Shultz for murder, Shultz informs the marshal that he now owes him money for his service.…

apparent continuity of the film. It was already mentioned how in Walker each scene seems to be a continuation of the previous one. After all, we indirectly perceive how day becomes into night, late night and morning again. We are not sure if this is so, but this is how we are trained to think because of the movement-image. Tsai Ming-Liang does not do anything that makes us think otherwise, the cuts between scenes are rational. Nevertheless, it is important to think about this carefully, because…

The final scene is interesting to the audience as it creates suspense and conveys to the audience many themes, such as sacrifice, destiny, and love. The use of cross-cutting from Jamal’s point of view to Salim’s and even Latika’s creates anticipation for the audience as to what is going to happen. Boyle is purposefully showing the shots of Latika running towards the phone and Salim layering money in the bath tub to create suspense for the audience as the figure out what will happen, and how each…
