Analysis Of The Tale-Tell-Hearts

I like the second video best, I think its because the music wasn't so loud throughout the whole video. I like that it didn't start out with music and slowly got into. The music in the first video was loud in the beginning and stayed that way throughout the whole video. I like the pictures in both videos they where both scientific and focused on earth. Since the video is honoring the Astronomer Care Sagan, I think that they were both appropriate. I learned that music makes a big difference and its important to coordinate it with the pictures and the speech, it needs to have the right tone.

While the other films involved in the lesson also seemed intriguing, this one really affected me. It practically made it obligatory for me to discuss it while also providing people with the opportunity to learn more concerning the event.

However, despite his constant justification of his judgment, on cannot help but question the narrator’s true sagacity.

My favorite line in the movie is, "before you die, you see the ring." This makes a direct correlation between the video and the video watcher's experiences. While watching Ringu, I found myself to be lost at times, wondering where exactly the movie was going, and what the images in the video even meant. Without the correlation between the video and the actors' lives, the movie is not tied together enough. Had I not seen The Ring before Ringu, I would not be able to say exactly what the movie was even about. Aside from tying the movie together, the videos themselves were very different in creativity and detail also. The images shown in the video of The Ring were frightening and horrific, like a horror movie should be. A viewer could tell what they were, and while they watched they could think to themselves, "Oh now here is where that fits in." In Ringu, nobody was clear what the image was or why it was there. The recurring hooded man bothered me the most. I could not decided whether I was seeing a member of the KKK or someone dressing up as a ghost a little early for Halloween this year. The images were not nearly as horrific as those in The Ring, and they were rather boring. This element also added to the confusion of the movie.

Salvador Dali once said “There is only one difference between a madman and me. The madman thinks he is sane. I know I am mad.” The personality of the main character in “The Tell-Tale Heart” is that of a madman even though he is in denial about it. The narrator tries to show this through examples.
