QUESTIONS
1. Discuss Julieta (Pedro Almodovar, 2016) as an example of the aesthetics of film melodrama. Referring to the textbooks section on melodrama (pages 351-354), identify some melodramatic conventions evident in Julieta. Is Julieta best seen as a family melodrama, a physical melodrama, or a social melodrama? Pick two scenes (or moments from scenes) from Julieta that exemplify the Almodovars use of melodramatic conventions, identifying how Almodovars techniques of cinematography, editing, mise-en-scne and/or sound support the films impact as a melodrama.
2.Discuss Do the Right Thing (Spike Lee, 1989) as a film that exemplifies conventional filmic storytelling in some respects but challenges it in others. Explain how Do the Right Thing differs from an ordinary narrative film by commenting on both the films narrative (how its story is structured) and its style, its use of film technique to depict story events. Pick a scene or two that exemplifies Spike Lees approach to telling the story. In describing the scene(s), explain how Lees use of mise-en-scne, cinematography, editing, and/or sound add to the scenes impact. (Besides the week 8 lecture video, see the analysis of mise-en-scne in Do the Right Thing in the textbook on pages 100-101.)
