The Other Boleyn Girl

The film i choose was the other Boleyn girl, this film is about Anne Boleyn and King Henry the 8th.
The part of the film i choose was the part before Anne Boleyn is killed, I choose to analysis this part in this film because i find it effective and expresses the emotion of the characters. The film is set in tutor times we can tell this by the castle and clothes the men and women are wearing the long dresses show they are royality. The music playing is sad and gloomy this addes to the sad atmosphere in the background we can hear the crowd cheering. Also the glommy weather creates the atmosphere off sadnees and that something bad is about to happen, the clouds are dark and dull.
The camera shots a birds eye view at the beggining as if we are looking down at what is happening, we then get the impression we are a member of the public standing and watching over peoples shoulders. The lighting is low light, the only light we get is from the sky and the few candles behind Anne Boleyn. As Anne is making her speech the music goes quite then loud after the speech. The music and Anne crying is the only sound we hear before she dies this creates a effect on the audience and creates sadnees and tension. Anne knees down this is another way we can see she is royality.
The colours used are black, red and white the colour black could be used to symbolise death, white to symbolise pure and innocent as Anne is innocent for the crime she is meant to have done, red to symbolise love and blood love as she falls in love with Henry and blood as she is about to die.
