I have to write my film coursework soon. I'm analysing the scene from lost in translation where charlotte wanders about the temples and bob shaves his face and goes on the game show. I don't really want to analyse it because it is perfect and it might ruin it for me. if you realise that you are only being made to feel a certain way because of some sort of camera shot type or music, will you still feel that way? there's a niceness in not knowing, not picking it apart, and just enjoying things as they were meant to be.
I agree. There's a sort of magic in films and literature and by analysing it and pulling it to pieces, in a way it denies that by saying it's all intention and technique.
