Favorite Movie in the Last Month
My favorite movie that I've seen in the last month is A Clockwork Orange. The lighting was more of the darker tones, using not that many bright lights. When the scene was mischievous, the lighting was dark using shadows and grey tones. When a scene livened up, the lighting was extremely bright and kind of creepy looking. It compares to German Expressionism in a way that they both use lighting that goes with the mood of the scene. The only difference is that German Expressionism uses colors that go with the scene. For instance, if the mood was angry the color used in the scene would be red. They use chiaroscuro to show the protagonists state of mind. The sets were simple and not always on location. On some scenes, it was filmed outside and some were filmed in sets that looked like rooms. I thought the acting was great. All actors played the parts very well and made it look very realistic.
