Director's Commentary

Watched director's commentary for Edward Scissorhands to see whether there would be anything to add to my notes on my 3 distinctive elements - Music, Lighting or Costume and Make Up.

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory

Watched about half of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory during a movie night with my friends and realised that I could possibly study this film for Task 2 and write from a sociological point of view about Charlie's lower class living and how that affects his actions in Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory. But I will need to finish watching it to find out more. Also since the dvd is a friend's I won't have to rent it out.

Task 2...

I have now decided on my Task 1 Films: Edward Scissorhands and Batman Returns.
Now I need to decide on my Task 2 Film which is writing about two different readings. For this task I am going to decide from Sleepy Hollow, Big Fish or Sweeney Todd: Demon Barber of Fleet Street.
Watched Sleepy Hollow for the first time after renting it out twice already!
Mr Ussher thinks I should study Big Fish because of the pschological reading.
