Raw Deal: Film Techniques
.... on her facial expressions and sense her fear. The direction of the light also plays a key role in creating a successful visual image. An example of this is the use of front-lighting and back-lighting in the scene on the boat where Joe is talking to Pat about their new married life. The camera focuses on a side view of Pat’s face. There is a light shining from the window behind her, directly pointing at the clock hanging on the wall to her left. There is also a light shining directly in her face and the rest of her surroundings are dark. The use of these lights creates horizontal lines, which go from the bottom of the clock .....

King Lear: A Story Of Blindness
.... sees Edmund’s reaction to his father’s description, and he definitely does not look happy. Even though Gloucester knows his two sons, he believes the worst of Edgar, and what Edmund says, all too easily. I would think that Gloucester would have had some previous experience with the ways of his sons, and not believe everything that Edmund says about Edgar, without talking to Edgar first. Perhaps, after seeing Regan and Goneril lie to the King, Cordelia’s disinheritance and the banishment of Kent for his “honesty,” Gloucester is primed for manipulation by Edmund. In Act I, Scene 2, he laments the many problems of the world, and .....

He has said earlier that he is what he appears to be, and there is no reason to doubt it. In the next act, however, Hamletis status and intentions s .....

.... frequently to visit his old friend. The interest that had been sparked some years earlier was refined and shaped and Monet was in no doubt as to the extent to which his outlook on life had been altered:
My eyes were finally opened and I understood nature; I learned at the same time to love it.
Boudin may have opened Monet's eyes, he may have even convinced the young painter to break with tradition and finish his paintings outdoors, but the young protogé had yet to truly experience the country's capital. Before long, the limitations of L e Havre on a burgeoning young artist became all to apparent and, in 1859, Monet left f .....
