Research & Planning: Over (2015)

Over (2015) https://www.shortoftheweek.com/2016/04/16/over/ What I liked/disliked... I really enjoyed this film. It is in the style I would really want films of my own to be made. The complete absence of dialogue added a brilliant dash of mystery to it. The occasional cuts to the victim's items built the tension really well. Most importantly and unavoidably the coolest part was the backwards storytelling; whilst not the first of its kind, this film adopts it in a way that makes it so much more interesting (whilst the true story in itself is interesting, if all the shots were placed chronologically the film would be beyond boring).  I can't determine anything I specifically dislike about the film. Aspects of Narrative  This film is the definition of 'subverting narrative style' and that's probably its main aspect. There is still a complication, in that we understand there has been a death, and are expect at the end to understand what happened. There...

Research & Planning: Operator (2015)

Perhaps the person on the line could've been a child? There is a number of real life touching and tragic phone calls between operators and children that can be found on youtube. Aspects of Narrative This film ideally follows the pattern found in storyte...

My Media

Where do I watch films? I usually stick to watching films at home, or at friends' houses. I go to the cinema about once a month, but am trying to go more. What devices do you use to watch films? How does this change the viewing experience? Mainly my laptop and SkyTV at home.  This maximises comfort and means I can resume or pause whenever I need to. It also gives me a lot of choice.  Are there certain films you prefer to see at the cinema? If so which? Action, fantasy and sci-fi is best to watch at the cinema. Anything that comes under 'epic', that significantly strays from reality is best in the cinema, as it allows you to fully immerse yourself in a relatively unfamiliar setting, and get the most out of the film. With whom do you watch films? Friends - but I try to only keep to those who have a critical outlook and are genuinely interested in film. Otherwise I find myself having to re-watch certain movies, because I was too distracted by my ...
