    audacity‚ for it is not often that‚ in a film billed as a mass audience comedy‚ all the main characters pass on to their heavenly reward at one point or another – but‚ then again‚ how many comedies span a two hundred year time period? `Bicentennial Man’ obviously has more on its mind than mere fish-out-of-water buffoonery‚ as it becomes an often-elegiac reflection on the transience of life‚ the meaning of being human and the search for societal acceptance.

She conveys this attitude specifically when she uses quotations and explanations of his family members. Goodman’s constant repetition of the phrase‚ “He worked himself to death‚ finally and precisely at 3am Sunday morning‚” implies her sarcastic attitude which is apparent throughout the piece. What she is trying to say is

    Cinematography In the film The Third Man cinematography works to create an opinion about the mise-en-scene through different camera levels‚ lighting and distance. The first way I will analyze this is through camera levels or angles the film was shot from. The film is shot through many different angles. It is taken from high angles‚ which brings the viewer a view as if they were looking down on the person. In one of the very first scenes of the film this high angle shot is used when the butler
