- Frederick & Shoshanna
- Costume, music, effects
-There is also guitar music before the girl gets shot - this getgs louder when she gets shot. The slow motion effect emphasises the scene and adds a romance to it - for example she shoots him and then looks at him on the film and feels bad, so she checks him - and she gets killed by him. The slow motion also emphasises how she was a main character all from the start. HOWEVER, you would think that she'd survive to SEE her revenge but she doesn't. Her death seems less brutal and more peaceful as she looks at him - suggest a romantic element to the couple?
-The romance music in the death scene is an example of contrapuntal music as the means are against the point.
-Costume (designed by Hugo Boss) in the scene is a typical red dress for the girl dieing. This connotes bad, romance, death, blood, danger and sex. Frederick is in white uniform which juxtaposes the idea of angelic, OR it may suggest that Frederick was 'in between'. White connotes pure, inocent, hope and good.
Frederick Zoller
- Powerful man, and he uses it to get the girl to like him.
- A nice man
- Up himself
- A bit of a lothario
- Nazi (by association/angry/temper) - therefore I wasn't shocked when he got mad at the girl.
- Has to compose himself a lot - during the killing and after
- Unassuming - schizophrenic
- Sociopath - just out for yourself (no empathy for other people)
-when smoke on cinema screen
- Wizard of Oz reference?
- Wicked witch in the smoke?
- Brad Pitt still looks emaculate - white jacket, hair isn't out of place, moustache is still perfect - hyper real ( not reality )
- Ending fits with personality of the character.
