The use of the Medium Close Up is an effective way to allow the audience to interpret the emotion depicted on the character in focus, whilst also managing to present a sufficient amount of environmental aesthetic. The use of the shot  captures the predicament of the antagonist, with the bars parallel to the frame of the character, therefore it is clear he is in captivity. The shot allows for the character’s hands to be visible clapping, with a nonchalant demeanor that contradicts his predicament, therefore the use of the shot is not only visually exemplifying of the character, it plays a vital role with the culmination of the scene in which he escapes his imprisonment.
