I really love the look of this scene because I think that the lighting in it looks really great. I like how the spotlight is on Fleck even though he is still behind the curtain in Murray’s studio before the interview. Furthermore, I love the look of the colourful curtains against how shadowed Fleck is and how it shines into backstage.

I like this reveal of Fleck’s new hair, makeup and clothes. I think that it is really fitting to do this in a dingy lift with the light flickering and a sad look on his face, which could hint to the deteriorating state of Fleck’s mental health after he killed someone he knew. Additionally, he was planning on taking his life on Murray’s show, where he was heading.

The set design in this scene reflects the disorder that is going on outside the building; the neat, high society looking building contrasts the riots happening in the city. This is really important to show the class divide in the film because people are killing each other and rioting violently outside the building, while these rich people are watching films, something not accessible for a lot of civilians, and not caring about their struggles. Moreover, I think that it is shot in a way that demonstrates this because Fleck is right in the centre of a completely symmetrical shot, which contrasts the discourse and violence happening outside.

I like the way Fleck feels really out of place in this scene because of his costume. I think that this works really well against the luxurious marble walls and brightly coloured flowers in the background, as well as how it contrasts Thomas Wayne’s suit. Similar to the set design showing the class divide in the city, I think this also does a good job at showing the class divide but a bit more personally.

This scene is filmed with a wide aspect ratio to show a lot of the mental hospital in the shot. This gives the viewer a deeper look into the world, and I think it contributes to the worldbuilding of Gotham City as you are able to see a wide view of the hospital as well as a bit of the cityscape.

I like the composition of this shot, as I think it looks really good with Fleck looking through the mirror at the words written with makeup off to the right side of the shot.

I like the over the shoulder shot here as it clearly shows Fleck’s expression, while covering the space of the rest of the shot. It also shows that he is having a conversation with someone, but not doing regular shots in front of his face.
