Task 2.1Misery analysis

Misery Film analysis:
At the start of the film we see on that the first thing up is the title text introducing everything for the film and we see that it says “in association with NELSON ENTERTAINMENT Presents” by this we see that the director is the first individual to be mentioned after Nelson Entertainment in the credit’s showing that this film is being sold more on his name rather than the actors who are in this film.
After the director’s name disappears what we can next here next is non-diagetic sound of a type write, before the scene is in view this could be ironic to later on in film.
Next after that we see on a close up on a rolled up cigarette and a match this could symbolise danger in his life to come we know this because on how when lit a cigarette can turn dangerous same with the match.
Also next we see on that a wine glass close up however in this one even though the background is blurred out we see someone in the background using a typewriter which we assume is the owner however when we see a wine glass we normally associate with it with a female however in this case scenario it is a male which is strange to see.
Next we see an extreme close up on the champagne in ice they have done this as an extreme close-up maybe representing on that it is the end to something good because champagne is used as a celebratory drink.
We then have a extreme close up on what the man is typing on the typewriter which then ends and then it zoom’s out to a medium shot showing us on what the character is which we then know it is a man and also we know on that he is checking his work by when we see his facial expressions.

We then have a close up of him pouring the champagne into the wine glass and also him smoking his cigarette by this we know that he is celebrating his finished work on his own which gives us the idea on that he is passionate about what he does and it till’s us more about the character also possibly meaning because he isn’t drinking with anyone that he is a lonely middle aged man.
