post-production editing. Many people sit and enjoy a movie without realizing the complexities and the amount of individuals involved in creating the film. These individuals create the landscapes and backboards for us‚ the ultimate image also known as the mise-en-scene. My favorite film of all time is Forrest Gump.

As far as film is concerned‚ I believe film maker Zhang Yimou has created a masterpiece with Hero.

Mise-en-scene in Taxi Driver Taxi Driver is about Travis Bickle‚ a "sick" taxi driver who is both a prophet and/or a mad man. We are never allowed to know what the movie itself thinks of him‚ we are never told to love him or hate him and the movie never states whether he is ethically right or wrong.
