Favorite Famous Shots

-


One of my favorite film shots is from Tangled (2010) which is directed by Nathan Greno and Byron Howard. My favorite shot is when Flynn Rider is healed and brought back to life. When Flynn dies, the scene has a lot of shadows and gray tones. The colors appear very muted and quiet, instrumental music is playing in the background to create a sorrowful feeling. However, when Flynn is healed, the screen is immediately saturated with bright colors and the room is filled with sunlight. I believe that if I were to film this shot, I wouldn't change much about it because I think it connects with the audience and conveys the appropriate emotion well.

     Overall, I really enjoyed watching Marie Antoinette.  I thought it was interesting how Coppola blended comedy into a rather historic film.

This really captured Marie's pain and sorrow and conveyed those emo...

Overall, I really enjoyed watching Rear Window. I really liked the plot turns and action scenes that were in this film. One character that I really liked was Lisa Fremont. To contrary belief, Lisa seemed to be a feminist in my perspective. For example, she is independent, fearless, and successful on her own. Many would argue that she was, like many other women the film portrays, attention-seeking and rather clingy towards Jefferies. However, I would disagree. I believe that Lisa was in fact not attention-seeking nor clingy. I believe that she was just a woman who was in love with her significant other. When we are in love, we desire to show affection and care to them, and to spend as much time with that person as possible. We are also willing to make sacrifices and take risks. For example, when Lisa willingly broke into Lars apartment in order to discover more evidence and help Jefferies, she showed how fearless she was and how willing she was to change her lifestyle if it meant she ge...
