Questions from thriller script analysis

1. Is it the same as the script?
No. the script has an extra part of a scene added before the bar scene. This section of a scene takes place in a hotel lobby and in a hotel room. It helps to establish the name of the a main character.

2. Any changes?
Yes the part of the scene mentioned in question 1’s answer has been removed, perhaps to be completely omitted or moved.

3. Does the script portray what you expect to see in the film?
The Script portrays some characters and their personality traits. Also as I would expect it reveals just enough of the plot to interest you but not to much to ruin it.



Second set of answers:


1. What is their name?
The film slowly and subtly reveals the scenes mains characters names. Although the at this point in the film antagonists and protagonists are not clearly defined the scenes would be protagonist is Named Jerry. The more antagonistic two men are called Carl (the more talkative slick man) and Grimsrud (the quieter Eastern European man)

2. What type of words describes this person?

Jerry:
· Weak
· Apologetic
· Desperate
· Lacks self confidence
· Vocal tic

Carl:
Strong willed
Quick witted
Straight to the point
Slick
Tidy looking

Grimsrud:
Quiet
Scruffy



3. Can you tell from this sequence the role of this character? i.e are they a protagonist/Antagonist?
*(answer 1 links with this)
As previously mentioned the film has not defined characters clearly enough to label characters properly however considering the attitudes, dialogue and what the characters look like (i.e. clothing) I can make the judgement that Jerry is the films protagonist and Carl and Grimsrud are antagonistic.


4. How do you know this?
*(answered in question 4)

Good Leon, I like your Fargo answers very detailed. You need to add your own character profile then meet with your group to discuss the Thriller and work on your own individual script. Chris

Hello Leon, you still need to add you character profile.Then use the "Your own script Task" information to assist you in creating a script you need to post it for Dan's lesson this week. Don't worry if all of the text alignment is not right on your post, either speak to Nina in lesson or I can help you next Tuesday. Once the script is up you need to focus on the "pitch" task already posted on the main site. Chris
