TRAINSPOTTING: ANALYSIS OF NARRATIVE RESOLUTION

l ondon montage is a display of renton’s character and how it bleeds through his narration: he’s not a reliable narrator and the frenzy and fast-paced nature of the london montage depicts how he views london stark contrast to prior scenes is this positive vibrant look on life  we see into his new life and job, and the speed matches the way we see london (proof of narration embodying his view on life  we see that even his honest to god real job is still ‘cheating’ as we see him hiding the complete truth and lying to consumers (which is part of the job but) perhaps this is parts of the job he likes and/or familiar with and that’s why he enjoys it  regardless, he is finally finding happiness in what he’s doing which was the choice to move away from his friends ‘there’s no such thing as society.. ‘ still acknowledges that he is alienated from the rest of world which is. contradictory to what he shows: he’s seen around so many people so perhaps this is his own minor insecuriti...

Buster Keaton 'One week' and 'The scarecrow' analysis

One week meaning is created in the frame itself, rather than through editing or cuts editing is extremely minimal, as invisible as possible, only present when completely necessary editing used is all for functional purposes rather than to create meaning; for example the opening shot cuts briefly to a close up of a new character before cutting to another long take of them getting in the car. so used to advance the plot rather than have an effect on how the audience view the events. the framing fits the size of the joke, mostly wide shots to show all the action happening, closest shot is the medium shot towards the end majority of, if not all Keaton's emotions and expressions are expressed through exaggerated body language and movement  size contrast is as a comedic effect - Keatons small stature is used to an advantage vs tall fatty man Keaton uses several silent comedy conventions - stuns, falls, special effects, chase sequences, set design, using mis en scene for jokes breaks 4th...

CASABLANCA: Intro to rick's bar scene analysis

At the beginning of the scene, we are shown the entrance to rick's cafe which is more lively and lit up which shows the contrast between day and night. There is a spotlight over the doors to the cafe which suggests to the audience that it is where the main action takes place and that it is allude to the potential of clandestine activity. We are then introduced to the rest of the cafe as the doors open and there's a tracking shot, cutting to different guests to convey its busyness.  The jazzy love song coupled with the nonchalant appearance of those who are dining lulls the audience into a false sense of security. Two characters are in the forefront of the shot, in a a more low-key area, suggesting that they are engaging in surreptitious undertakings. The well-lit room and the glee of the jazz band do much to set in place the at ease ambience of the room and its hedonistic tone. The focus is on the jazz band which pulls us through the room, drawing attention to the singer, seate...
