Class Sixteen


FARGO

Literary Dimension:

Theatrical Dimension: There are elements to this movie that we need to understand.

In movies, as is the case in plays, we find sets -- the locations where events happen, lighting -- the ways in which the actors are lit --, and blocking. The movements of the actors are choreographed long before the movie begins to be recorded. I would like you to pick one scene in the movie and write one double-spaced page on how the director has used the set, lighting, and blocking to create and sustain a particular MOOD.


What are some Cultural References in these scene?


Homework:

Finish watching the movie
