WHAT I ENDED UP APPLYING:
- The voice-overs, however I also showed the characters both while they were on and off-screen while the sound was playing
POSSIBLE POINTS OF INFLUENCES
- The voice-over is again another convention I have seen especially in rom-coms and teen films
Love Actually
Richard Curtis, 2003
BBFC 15 rating, MPAA R rating
Length: 2'49/7'00
LEAD ACTORS: Ensemble cast
(but arguably Hugh Grant has the biggest star power here)
GENRE: Romantic comedy
(adult, Christmas-themed)
PRODUCTION COMPANIES: Working Title
DISTRIBUTOR: Universal Pictures
BUDGET: $40m
BOX OFFICE: $62.7m (UK), $59.7m (US)
$247m (worldwide)
(The Grant Rule, despite this being a big hit, doesn't apply
here, this is quite a gem for British cinema, and maybe a touch too alien with its Britishness, and taking the mickey out of the USA)
TRAILER:
NARRATIVE, EXPOSITION:
We get the love is all around, we are at a high, we are at Todorov's equilibrium of love being all around, the love will be challenged throughout the film and the characters we follow will find it again. At the end every character has a new equilibrium.
We are at the same location the film will end on, so that is also further symbolising the equilibrium.
GENRE:
Unconventional not to have the main characters who are in love, but it fits due to the ensemble cast, we are not following one couple or love triangle.
SOUNDTRACK:
Voice-over narration. His status as Prime Minister in the film is signified, as well
Non-diegetic incidental music is also added.
REPRESENTATION:
Are people living in poverty going to be in that airport, the victims of war as in the bad state Hugh Grant's prime minister describes.
