Small breakdown of scene design
晓雪 2022-01-18 08:01:22
Very beautiful romance films, although the plot is old-fashioned, the scene design gives people a very particular beauty. For example, in abandoned huts and Ron friends' houses, large areas of transparent glass often appear in the scenes-making the space very open. In the parties Cary and Cary attended, the mirror-reflecting indoor space was more common. The contrast between the two also reflects the attitudes of people of different classes. The former: transparent, clear, friendly, and sincere among people. The latter: take care of yourself. Such seemingly invisible&unnoticeable scene design has actually made the audience deep into the plot and class contradictions.

Dr. Hennessy: Forget for a moment that I'm your doctor and let me give you some advice as a friend. Marry him.
Cary Scott: Well, there's no point in discussing that. It's all over.
Dr. Hennessy: Apparently it isn't. You still have the headaches.
