2/10/23 Moonlight First Response

scoring: 8/10

In my opinion, the scene starting at 28:57 was the most memorable scene as it is completely silent, yet so much is said. It starts with a medium long shot depicting Little, then cuts to another one of Littles mother. This then cuts to Little once again, however in a medium shot, cutting back to his mother. His mother screams ‘Don’t look at me!’ but we do not hear this.

This stands out as this is the only non-audible scene in the movie, but there is also a repeated sequence of shot distances shown. This directs our focus on two different subjects/characters, which correlate to each other as they exchange communication. Pink light is also representative of his mothers hatred and danger towards Little. Overall i find these points make this scene deep and emotional.
