City Streets
7 February 2019
I thought the movie City Street was a very well put together film, especially considering the time period it was made in. I would consider this film to be romance movie, while having action and crime as well, appealing to a wide variety of audiences. The use of sound stood out to me throughout the movie, and I found certain times more notable. One example would be the dramatic volume level of footsteps through out the movie. Another would be the pitch and sound of louder everyday things, such as the telephone, bells, alarms and sirens. The camera angles also changed frequently, such as close ups or larger range shots, and the lighting changes as well. My favorite scene was when the camera started as a close up on her face, then slowly the camera backed up and you could see more of her in the shot, and you see that one of her eyes is squeezed shut, then you see her whole face, and she has on a very serious straight face. Next you here a gun shot and the camera view is no longer on her and you see the targets she was shooting at.
