TA- Bonnie and Clyde introduction
I have chosen Arthur Penn’s 1967 crime drama Bonnie and Clyde for my textual analysis. Set in America during the Great Depression the film follows the relationship of a dissatisfied waitress Bonnie Parker who falls in love with ex-con, Clyde Barrow, leading them to embark on a violent crime spree through the country, stealing cars and robbing banks. I have chosen the final scene of the film, 1:45:00 – 1:50:00, where Bonnie and Clyde are ambushed and violently killed in the final shootout whilst returning from town. To analyse this section I will be focusing on the directors use of editing, mise-en-scene, filmmakers’ influences, intentions, and vision, along with the impact of historical and institutional contexts.

TA- A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night First Response
| A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night (2014, Ana Lily Amirpour) | CRITICAL SCORE: 5.5/10 | MEMORABLE SCENE: When the girl invites Arash back to her house and The girl killing the dad, Hossein (cuts between the death and black screen) |

| Bonnie and Clyde (1967, Arthur Penn) | CRITICAL SCORE: 8/10 | MEMORABLE SCENE: Final death scene and Opening scene of Bonnie in her room and walking with Clyde |
TA- Children Of Men First Response
| Children Of Men (Alfonso Cuarón, 2006) | CRITICAL SCORE: 7.5/10 | MEMORABLE SCENE: Theo and Kee leaving the destroyed building amidst the fighting, and all the soldiers/fighting pauses (juxtaposition and change in sound/music). See their POV as they walk through the soldiers. |
