Use of Visual Storytelling in Cinematography to Subvert Narrative Analysis

Use of Visual Storytelling in Cinematography to Subvert Narrative Analysis

How does the film make use of visual storytelling through mise en scene and cinematography to reinforce or subvert the narrative? What message or theme do you take away from the film due to this? I am more concerned with your overall argument and the analysis that you use to support it than structural elements (grammar and organization do still count though). Write for an audience who has seen the film. There is no need for summary. Cite examples including specific shots and visuals as well as direct quotes of dialogue to highlight what you find interesting about the film. Look over the textbook or the slideshows to get an idea for some of the terms you can use to describe the things you are seeing. Feel free to use comparisons to other films and incorporate external information, sources such as filmmaker interviews or critical analysis, but be sure to cite them in text if you do.
