Bunny
Bunny was a strange little clip. There was no dialogue, but
after seeing how it played out, I realized that it wasn’t necessary. The woman
was clearly upset about the fact that her husband was no longer alive. The
moths were her guides or angels. At first she found them to be very annoying,
but as the clip went on, she decided to follow them, and they ended up leading
her peacefully into her death and there she was reunited with her husband.
Mostly, I was just trying to figure out who would come up with something like
this?
Paris, Texas
The main things that stuck out to me in the clips from
Paris, Texas were techniques used when the man and woman were talking through
the telephone and glass. It was great how they used the shadow type effect
through the glass so you could tell who could see who and what was going on.
Other strange things happened in this film, like the father and son eating in
the back of the truck. Why did the creator decide to park it on the side of the
road under the overpasses? In the beginning clips though, the guy seems crazy.
He’s running around out in the desert and no one can get him to stop. The more
he walks though, the more you can see that he’s getting closer to civilization.
Northfork
In Northfork, the church was being moved so one of the walls
was missing. Looking at the congregation, it just seemed like a regular church
building, but when you looked up at the Preacher, all you saw was him standing
there with a completely open background. The mountains in the background seemed
to represent the transcendent beyond. Later we see a father and son going to
check out a house. The house was split in half, where one side was living and
one side was dead. We see it’s snowing in the middle of the two parts. The
father jumps to the other side, gets knocked out, and sees angels.
Harold and Maude
This woman kept trying to set up her son with different
girls. Every time he would do something really strange to scared them away. The
mom and one of the girls were sitting in the house and the girl looks outside
and sees Harold and he appears to have lit himself on fire. The girl starts
freaking out and screaming and runs out. Harold then comes back into the house
acting like nothing happened. You see
him smirk and seem very proud of what he has done. It was cool how the film
creators were able to make the illusion that Harold had set himself on fire
when he really didn’t.
Cabeza de Vaca
The one guy gets shot with a bunch of arrows and he’s
holding a cross in front of him. He walks towards the light, as if it is
heaven. A tribal guy does a ritual to keep the prisoner there so he basically
runs in a circle and ends up right back where he started. He feels like he’s
stuck in an evil place with demons. Eventually he is reborn and gets along with
the people who had originally kept him captive. They realize he has a special
healing power so they set him free.
The Wall
I honestly had no idea what this clip was about. Maybe
because it was animated and was all over the place, but I just could not follow
it.
