A Quiet Place SequelIs Being Developed

A Quiet PlaceA Quiet Place, which cost around $17 million to make before marketing costs, has earned more than $213 million worldwide so far at the box office.Studio chairman Jim Gianopulos to announce that sequel on the way ,which they are currently working on.However, people are left unsure whether director/writer/star John Krasinski will return for the sequel as there are no details about the setting for this follow-up story.
I think this is a bad idea, i feel a sequel is unnecessary as there is no unanswered questions at the end. additionally , considering the main protagonist is no longer in the story line i think it would be an unusual shift in the film and it would not make sense as i feel the action unfolded from his perspective and nearly everything in the film was done around him. I also think they are taking advantage of the fact it had a very good it made a lot of money, therefore they are making a sequel just to make more money ,not to make a good film just like the first one, this may be why the director and writer John Krasinski is doubted about his return.Although , i think it will be interesting to see how the portray the mother in the next film ,due to before the power was in the father(protagonist) hands,it will be interesting to see if she replaces this figure.

The film is based on the novel of the same name by Irvine Welsh; the film was released in the United Kingdom on 23 February 1996. In the opening scene of trainspotting we see Renton and spud running down the road, the camera movement and music merge together to match the action on screen.

Furthermore when we see the car hit Renton is could be double meaning as throughout the narrative he talks about having a career, so, the car could signify the barrier of drug addiction that stops him having all the stuff mentioned. the positioning of the two characters could suggest that Renton is alwa...

pans labyrinth and film form- summer work

Pan's labyrinth uses film form to portray messages to the audience in many ways, it also adds effect to the most simplest devices used in film. In the opening scene of Pan's labyrinth the sound of the breathing is non-diegetic this is done to emphasise the significance of the event which has occured.

Buster Keaton: One Week, The Scarecrow, The High Sign, Cops Buster Keaton tends to use long shots to encourage the audience to look around the frame to see the joke, they allow an appreciation of the gag. Close ups usually follow up from this to show the characters reaction. He also tends to shoot face on so he is centre of attention. Keaton does this to highlight the idea that he is the joke and considered a clown; this tends to follow through on most films. In Cops there is a scene where Keaton is depicted in the foreground trying to take nap, a deep focus is used to show us that the city is unfurling in the background. Yet again Keaton is placed in the middle of the frame, this allows the audience to see how interacts with the chaotic and mechanical world. This is a very iconic use of cinematography for Keaton, as he tends to prefer to get everything in one frame, this is because editing in the 20s was considered as deceiving the audience. The sets used in Buster Keaton...
