Mise-En-Scene And Metaphors In Visual Literature Movie Review

Mise-En-Scene And Metaphors In Visual Literature - Movie reexamine ExampleAnother use of metaphor can be found in the scope where Belfort describes the ingress of sexual activity in his office. The description of the first day at office shows a homosexual enjoying sexual favor from a colleague in the elevator while Belfort and his associates are standing on the ground floor. The gradual upward movement of the elevator and the characters activity inside it indicates Belforts rise and what it consisted of. That the rough-cut man will always remain gullible and hungry for money is suggested by the last scene of the movie which is preceded by the goover asking wouldnt you like to learn how to make money and we are led to the voice introducing Jordan Belfort to a room full of people interested to listen to his sales training. From long apoplexy to mid-long shot to medium shot the camera brings us closer to the young group of people who are overeager to make quick money. The pedest al movement of the camera shows the curious faces of many such young faces who regard to become a Jordan Belfort one day. A movie, therefore, is not a monolithic narrative but a visual literature created by directors, cinematographers, editors and screen players. From lighting to camera angle, to costume and movement of characters in a movie does have a meaning associated with it. The understanding of the mise-en-scene, therefore, provides an insight into the mind of the director. Both Gravity and The wildcat of Wall street are meshed with metaphors guiding the judgments of the viewers.
