The Woman in Black
I am going to be looking at the opening scene for 'The Woman in Black' and analysing the different conventions of genre.
- Setting - in a room of a house, looks old fashioned.
- Three girls (protagonists) playing with dolls having a tea party - they all look very happy.
- Contrapuntal music - creepy and sinister.
- All turn their heads as if someone has walked into the room
- They stand up in sync and start walking on and breaking the dolls and tea cups.
- In sync the walk up to the three windows, open them and jump out.
- Sounds of screaming coming from a women.
- Mise-en-scene - their costumes indicate the era and show that they are young.
