Key points to notice.

A task in today's lesson was to watch scenes from three different films. These were Jurassic Park, Good Will Hunting and Goodfellas. However while watching we had to notice these key points; protagonist, antagonist, pivotal character, dialogue, intentions & subtext. These were the following conclusions:

Jurassic Park - Lunch debate scene
Protagonist - Dr Hammond

Pivotal Character - Everyone else
Dialogue - Speech, hitting the table
Intentions - Didn't want the park open
Subtext - Two completely different species, many years apart.

Good Will Hunting - Bar scene
Protagonist - Will Hunting
Antagonist - Clark
Pivotal Character - Not clear from the clip
Dialogue - Speech
Intentions - Tired to embarrass the guy to get the girl
Subtext - Arguing to prove Clark was really a jerk

Goodfellas - Restaurant scene
Protagonist - Henry
Antagonist - Tommy
Pivotal Character - Everyone else
Dialogue - Speech
Intentions - Tommy is the joker and then tries to embarrass Henry to make the others laugh
Subtext - Begins putting Henry in his place by keep asking what he means when he says "How am I funny" but then it turns out to be a joke.

A husband of 20 years is a serial killer.

Dialogue Only

Rose

Why do you have to ruin it for us, we move to a nice town with nice people and when we finally settle in you go and ruin it, every time! 

Jack

I'm sorry

Rose

Is that all you can say "you're sorry" because it isn't good enough you've killed three people now and you make me put up with it, well I don't think I can anymore!

Jack

Don't leave me, I don't know what I'll do... You know what I'm capable of and being alone will make everything worse.

Rose

Well you told me you'd leave it, how can I even trust what you say anymore. We're constantly worried and running away from the trouble you've caused for us. 

Jack

Look at me, nobody will find out I promise, it'll just be another missing persons report nobody will link him to us... I promise. 

Rose

You can't make promises like that. There could be a fibre of anything on his body they are professionals!

Jack

Well they didn't find out about the other two so what's to say they'll find out about the third.

Rose

You talk about it as if you're proud of what you've done... I am disgusted in you! When we first started dating 4 years ago I was 15 and I never thought you'd be a cold hearted murderer!

Jack

Don't call me that, that is not who I am! You didn't have to talk to him, if you would of just stayed away from him this never would of happened. 

Rose

You always do this, you can't blame your cold hearted murders on me... I can't talk to guys but you can talk to girls, it works different for you!

Jack

I am not cold hearted or a murderer!

Rose

You've killed three people Jack! When are you going to get that in to your stupid head.

Rose

How can I love a murderer.

Jack

Rose

Jack

Scene Review

Pretty Woman - Second Shopping Scene

Director - Gary Marshall
Length - 3:06
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jT5rMvo3Clc

My chosen scene shows the mains actors, Richard Gere and Julia Roberts walking down the street to the shop. While walking down the street she shows some worry about going to the shop as they wasn't welcoming towards her however Richard tells her they're nice to credit cards to attempt to reassure. 25 seconds in they arrive at the shop where Edward (played by Richard) introduces Julia to the store manager and they then begin helping her shop and advise her what to buy. There are then various shots of her trying on different outfits. The shopping scene then ends with he leaving store having spent a lot of money. Julia then walks back down the street to the shop she went to the day before and got rejected because of the way she was dressed and rubbed it in their face that they missed out on the commission from the amount of money she spend.

I like this scene, as the dialogue within it is entertaining. At the beginning of the scene Richard says to Julia "Stop fidgeting and get rid of your gum" she then spits her gum out in the street and someone flinches away from her and Edward says, "I don't believe you did that." This piece of dialogue gives the audience humour, as it's not something you would happily do. When they then enter the shop Edward speaks to the store manager about what he would like which then of course the manager is more than happy to help. Although this scene is only regarding clothes shopping it’s entertaining for the viewer as the conversation between Edward and the store manager make you realize the manager is just trying to impress him for the money and Edward isn’t concerned about the cost.
