A new set of eyes

To begin with, I'm not a very avid film or TV watcher. I'd much rather get lost in the pages of a book then find the time to sit down and watch a movie.  However, I found it to be incredibly intriguing to watch clips from films on Thursday with a new set of eyes.  Of course when you watch a movie, you know that every little thing is done for a reason, but you usually just ignore it and subconsciously process it.  It was interesting to really pick apart, and take a couple of minutes to think about why the directors made the decisions that they made.  To really dissect why a specific take was shot at the angle that it was, why certain sounds are more heightened than others.  It left me wondering about movies that I consider to be long time favorites, and if they are favorites due to certain things like that. I plan on beginning to re-watch them and see what I can pick up on now.

    That's a good observation Nicole. Looking at the angle of the take and wondering why in some way, some how will connect with my first entry. I'd like to think that the little things matter most despite the fact that such things are overlooked the most versus phenomenon
