My clip From the start of the scene, the mise-en-scène establishes a clear sense of conflict and disruption. Such as the corner shop combined with props such as guns and food seen around the shop, which immediately connotes criminality and danger in a casual setting . This environment reflects a familiar everyday life landscape, allowing the audience to quickly recognise the stakes of the situation. According to  Lévi-Strauss’s theory of binary oppositions , narratives are structured around opposing forces . In this scene, a clear binary is created between law and crime , order and chaos , and authority and threat . Mike and Marcus visually and narratively represent order, while the robbers embody disorder. This opposition simplifies the moral framework of the scene and ensures that the audience ’s sympathies are aligned with the protagonists . Additionally, The costume and body language further reinforce this opposition. Mike’s composed posture and controlled movements c...

1-  My clip In the opening sequence of Clueless , the film establishes both setting and character through a carefully considered use of camera techniques and framing. The sequence begins with a high angle shot above the car , capturing all the main characters together as they navigate the streets of Hollywood. This choice of angle conveys the iconic, glamorous setting of Los Angeles, situating the narrative within a world of wealth and teenage privilege.The focus then shifts to a medium shot of Cher , which introduces her as the protagonist. The medium shot frames her in a way that balances her individuality with her environment, highlighting her fashion and body language key aspects of her identity. This is paired with a close up , which allows the audience to engage with her thoughts and emotions more intimately. A low angle shot of Cher and her friends follows, portraying her school life. The sequence further incorporates long shots and extreme close ups of Cher’s bed...
