  1. How I might plan an essayforThe Constant Gardener

  2. 3 questions

  3. ‘To what extent do you agree that the production features of a particular scene contribute to a film’s central idea(s)?’ • Key things • Production features – how it is made... Film techniques (cinematography, editing etc..) • Scene – need a good one • Central ideas – themes of the film

  4. The scene • The funeral – from beginning of Pellegrin’s speech to cut back to Justin at Lake Turkana • The resolution to the political thriller part of the film. Justin and Tessa get ‘justice’. • Many film techniques • montage • Aural bridge/voice-over • Contrast light/colour • Costume • Cross cutting/flash forwards and back • brings together ideas of the film powerfully.

  5. My thesis statement – main argument • That a single, well crafted scene can express many important ideas, particularly if it connects and resolves so many other parts of the film – and this scene is particularly powerful at expressing Meirelle’s message.
