Task 3- The man who fell to earth

Question 1- What do we learn about the character from the way he relates to his environment?

From this glimpse of the movie, it is obvious to see the main character had no understanding of what he was around and it all seemed a bit puzzling. The facial expressions give it off completely that he is feeling this sort of way. The clothing on him rubs off a scary impression on him but in more of a mysterious way. Whether this is associated with death we do not know but throughout the scene it is clear to see how repentant he is so death could be an answer to that. Also the near danger around him could represent karma or that something isn't going that right for him. The ending action shows the character begins to become comfortable with his new surroundings.

Question 2- What expectations do we have of the genre and narrative of the film?

The major expectation this glimpse gives off is that it is clearly a sci-fi film due to the rare chance of someone falling to earth. However the new surroundings means it is a whole new world for the character and to gain confidence he will need to have an understanding and this is where an adventurous side kicks in.

Extension Task-   1-

Get Rich or Die Tryin

From this glimpse of an image, the main props involved is a gun. Clearly we can see this is an action/crime film. The costume is a black jacket with a grey hoodie which suggest he is thick layered. This means he is expecting damage done to his body so he is prepared. The leather gloves means that something illegal is going on as he is not trying to get traced, especially with the fact there is one hand out and one hand pointing the gun. The facial expression is screwed with one eye brow up suggesting anger in his eyes and that he wants something done for him otherwise something bad will kick off. Judging by the background, this robbery could be somewhere quiet or illegal so it is unnoticed.
