Celine Sciamma’s 2019 film Portrait of a lady on fire (france) and Greta Gerwig’s 2019 little women (US) are both period drama films that centre their focus around women. Both film have the characters being predominantly women and they have been chosen because they were made in different countries, with a different budget and with one being a hollywood film.

Portrait of a Lady on Fire shows a painter (Marriane) attempting to draw a portrait of a young woman (Heloise) for a suitor however Heloise refuses to be painted, therefore Marriane has to attempt to paint her in secret. At the end of the film the portrait has been finished and Heloise leaves to get married and it shows years have passed and Marriane sees Heloise from across the room at a concert.

Little Women is a coming of age period drama set in the 19th century where four sisters, growing up without a father, face the struggles of the patriarchal society that they live in.

How are women represented in Period Drama from different cultures?

new wave:

• discontinuity editing
• dialogue is absurd and appears unscripted
• no establishing shot
• crossing the line on purpose/ backs of heads are used as much as close ups
• extreme close ups are used for aesthetic purposes
• jumpcuts are left in
• hand held camera
• real locations
• long take
• breaks 4 wall

classic hollywood:

• continuity editing
• focus on plot
• dialogue advances the plot
• establishing shot
• close ups to tell the story
