Bart Layton built this doc not from one perspective, but from a collection of them. Some stories, like “The Imposter” need a panoptic approach to connect the audience to the film.

Long shot of Billy making him look much smaller on the screen is used to foreshadow the harm and prejudices Billy might get from the society as he pursues his dancing career. The swinging door at the gym symbolises a barrier as well as an opportunity of his dream. Panning of the camera,close up and the low angle shots passing ballerinas feet before focusing on Billy’s reinforces that he is different as well as emphasising his preparedness to take risks for him to be able to pursue his dream. Shifts on the expressions of Billy and Jackie while they were arguing about ballet as well as the close up shot of Jackie grabbing Billy and holds him against the door highlighted Jackie as both physical and psychological obstacle of Billy’s

The director mainly used eye level shots, to leave it up to the audience to judge the two main characters of the movie, although certain power struggles in the film are shown from high angles to illustrate someone dominating a conversation or argument. Figgis also uses some point of view shots to show the imbalance during Ben’s drunken periods where the camera is placed at an oblique angle to show tension and approaching movements. The images in the film are in high contrast with streaks of blackness and harsh shafts of light to underline the dramatic events that occur.

At the very beginning the film starts in black and white and changed to color as the story progressed. The filmmaker uses a lot of Long Takes, each shot of Dorothy meeting someone new is pretty lengthy.

Alan Berliner’s Intimate Stranger is an unconventional documentary in several respects. Most fundamentally, the subject of the film is Joe Cassuto, the filmmaker’s grandfather. Over the course of the film, many of Berliner’s relatives are interviewed, all with a different perspective on why Joe Cassuto would not be an interesting subject for a documentary. The idea of the “anti-protagonist” runs through the entire film, and this directorial challenge is only exacerbated by the small amount of archival footage of Cassuto. Given these conditions, the film has the potential to lack the context and information necessary to immerse the audience in the film. However, the film creates an engaging narrative through continuity of style and sound.

Naomi Greene once said that, “Pier Paolo Pasolini was the more protean figure than anyone else in the world of film.” This means that Pasolini was a versatile film director because he simplified cinema into the simplest way possible, while still visually embodying an important message to his cinematic viewers. Because of his encounter with Italy’s social changes, it influenced the writing and films he chose to write. His aspirations regarding his written work “Cinema of Poetry” explains how a writer usage of words and a filmmaker’s choice of images are linked to how cinema can be a poetry of language. He characterizes cinema as irrational and his approach on free indirect point of view is used to achieve a particular effect in his body of work. His claims made in the Cinema of Poetry illustrate why he stylized his films in the manner he did, such as Mamma Roma through the images he portrayed on screen. By examining Pasolini’s approach to poetic communication in the Cinema of Poetry, we can see that these cinematic attributes about reality and authenticity depicted in Mamma Roma are utilized to question cinematic viewer’s effortless identification of cinema with life. This is important to illustrate because Pasolini wants to motivate viewers to have an interpretative rather than a passionate relationship with the screen.

The film, the Untouchables, was directed by Brian De Palma. It was set in the prohibition era, which was right at the start of the 1920’s. Prohibition can be described as a law that made selling and manufacturing alcohol illegal. By putting this law into effect, it actually increased the amount of crime and violence throughout cities in the US. This was ultimately due to the rise in organized crime, also known as gangs. In the movie specifically, it was centered around the rise of the Mafia in Chicago. By looking at the production of the movie, we can see how during prohibition, the Mafia controls everything and the violence ultimately it leads to.
