I have chosen Kátia Lund and Fernando Meirelles 2002, Crime, drama City of God for my textual analysis. The film is set in Rio De Janeiro and features two boys going down different paths and where it leads them in the end. One getting into the business of Drug dealing and the other aspiring to become a photographer. I have chosen 1.50.12 – 1.53.16 of the film to analyse, this features the climax of the film where two gangs’ cross paths and begin to shoot at each other, this ends in the betrayal of one of Knockout Neds own member. To enable me to efficiently analyse this section I’ve chosen to analyse, Mise en Scene and Cinematography as my micro elements and representation and ideology as my macro elements. In terms of context, I will be focusing on historical and social aspects of the film.
