Third film
Narrative - how the story is told through the characters and music
Restrictive narrative
It tells the story through his journey
Influenced by "the hangover"
Narrative over cinematography

Genre: rom-com
Representation: friendship
Theme: party animal
Narrative: 
Style: seagull, through glasses, from his POV

Filmed through his perspective - exposure of the camera - could emphasise the hangover - white could represent dream state - emphasise another world or state (hyper reality) - lucid dreaming - broader palette of creativity - animalistic style 


First film
Style over substance - used every micro aspect to emphasise the visual style - focus on style and camera angle rather than the style - bright lighting (change exposure of the camera) 
Focuses on foreground - leaves, man is in the background - nature is more important than people 
Macro - narrative (used the characters as a device) Classic 

Hollywood narrative - there isn't just one narrative - exploring other types of narrative - all we know is mainstream
Style - no dialog (the way it is shot) - what does the leaf mean? - style over substance - films can be appreciate through aesthetics - relationship between the sound and the visual - all a low angle - they are both running - keeps on tracking (movement) film is called motion - THEME - how limiting is the classical Hollywood narrative to a film?
