Movie choices

Here is the list of movies you have to choose from over the break. Your blog post about this movie is due on Sunday, November 25. Write about the visual elements, including how the movie's tone and mood are established using color, lighting, or sound.  You might also consider exploring how the first ten minutes of the movie sets up the conclusion. Almost all of these films should be available on Netlix or Amazon. If you can't find one that you want, choose a different one.

1. Amelie

2.  Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

3. Life of Pi

4. Moonlight

5. American Beauty

6. Slumdog Millionaire

7. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon

8. The Grand Budapest Hotel

9. Fargo (the movie, not the TV series)

10. Ida


Here are some snippets from the lists and other films:
