☆GET TO KNOW ME♡: [7/?] Favorite Shows

Star Trek: The Original Series (1966-1969)

You wouldn't understand that, would you, Spock? You see, I feel sorrier for you than I do for him because you'll never know the things that love can drive a man to. The ecstasies, the miseries, the broken rules, the desperate chances, the glorious failures, the glorious victories. All of these things you'll never know simply because the word love isn't written into your book.

Lord of the Rings - Fellowship of the Ring (2001)

Something that caught my eye while watching The ballad of songbirds and snakes is the use of the low-angle shot in Coriolanus' scenes. This kind of shot can be used to convey power and strength. I think it's an interesting way to portray how Snow feels superior to everyone else.

But there are also some scenes where the opposite happens, using a high-angle shot. For example, during Lucy Gray's reaping, and when he's watching the games at the studio.

I think this contrast represents both his need and desire for control, and the realization that before the Capitol (in the form of Gaul, the games and the government) he is pretty much powerless.

It's in the last scenes of the woods where we have the most extreme low-angle shots. And I think it's funny that, as much as he puts himself above everyone and everything (on top you could say), the birds he so much despises will always be above him.

A thing I LOVE about Knives Out it's its clever foreshadowing and little references that the viewer will see again later but with a different meaning.

My favorite example would be the mug (the one that says "my house, my rules" or something like that). The first shot we see in the movie is the mug up close and later, when Marta is staring down from the balcony to the family, she's holding the mug and "coincidentally" her hands are covering some words, except for the "my house".

Call me biased. But for me, that is the pinnacle of cinema.

Context: People were saying stuff like "Who cares about echo Daredevil is all we need" and people who puts most of the limelight to daredevil who only showed up for less than a second in the trailer (via @mattmurdockisntdaredevil 's post)

What do you mean it's been over a year since my last meme about Michael Mann and the undying love I have towards his filmography?
