One prodigious technique that I have established in this limited scene is Pathetic Fallacy, in another definition, a Weather Metaphor. A clear example of this technique shown was when Gus has quoted “Is there a storm coming?”, and Karen has replied “the weather said no.” This showed me that there is a few overcast color’s involved in this scene, such as Grays and Blacks. Gray is a cool, neutral color but is also a moody color associated with being dull, dingy and dirty. It’s also a time loss and practical color that is often associated with loss or depression. The dark skies, but also the sound of silence, the director has used is suggesting that it is the sign of the upcoming death of Bianca. This demonstrated …show more content…
In this scene, a heart wrenching example of this technique shown was when Lars has given Bianca that special touch of a delightful kiss before she died. The director is suggesting that we should deliberately focus on Lars and Bianca’s love life, when Lars leant in for the kiss, to show that he was in need for support and to also have that important communication with people to share his fears and feelings with. When he inclined himself closer to Bianca, to provide the kiss, it advises me that it was a souvenir of ever experiencing true love, he first had.

The director could be suggesting, using the long shot, that she has a long journey before entering the gates of Heaven. But also in the long shot view, it’s quite difficult to notice what Lars is doing to Bianca, so it shows that you have to look carefully at all these things, closely, that matter to you because when it’s out of your hands, and your life, you can never retrieve it back. Bianca was the important element that connected them both together and caused an engaging chemical reaction, but he’s lost her, in the cause of death. As he placed Bianca in the lake calmly we are feeling heartaches and misery in our bodies because we are watching a man recovering from his mental illness and Bianca is a catalyst for Lar’s transformation. Lars is a gentle, loving and caring person who gives a perfect example of masculinity and is now knowing what it means to become a
