Presentation transcript:

Learning Objectives: - Develop understanding of key scenes later in the film - Develop an opinion about the concept of the story as a re-telling of Greek Mythology - Consider the main characters in the story

Movement from subjective to objective spectator position 5/9 (14mins) 6/9 (5mins 50secs) 7/9 (5mins) From inside to outside Scottie’s mind.

Dream Sequence What does it suggest about Scottie’s state of mind? Unstable – flashing colours (editing effects), shrieking, high pitched, almost manic music Fear – sweating, head in the dream, he is falling as Madeline (guilt – blaming himself?), Surreal, ghost-like mood/atmosphere… Tunnel (idea of being trapped?), spiralling out of control, confusion, bewilderment Symbolism of flashing red? Danger? Piece together fragments of the past (roses, Carlotta, Gavin Elster, necklace) We are encouraged to go into Scottie’s mind and think about what he is feeling.

Scene in Ransohoff’s Store (and afterwards) OBJECTIVE 7/9 (13mins 10secs) What is Scottie trying to do to Judy? He is trying to transform her into Madeline – he is attempting to bring Madeline back to life from the dead He is controlling, aggressive, determined, mad, unsure of his own his own feelings (is he as happy as he says?) Judy doesn’t feel as if she is being loved for herself but she loves Scottie so much she accepts this imperfect love

Judy: “If I let you change me, will that do it? If I do what you tell me, will you love me?” Scottie: “Yes-yes” Judy: “Alright then, I’ll do it. I don’t care anymore about me” Scene in Ransohoff’s Store (and afterwards)

The final scene

Scottie: “He made you over just like I made you over – only better. Not only the clothes and the hair, but the looks and the manners and the words….And then what did he do? Did he train you? Did he rehearse you? Did he tell you exactly what to do and what to say?” The final scene

Orpheus and Eurydice The musician Orpheus loses his wife, Eurydice, to death and ventures into the underworld to rescue her, only to lose her again. Her death is the fault of Orpheus – he fails to follow the instruction not to look back at his beloved as he leads her out of Hades.
