Just some notes taken in class, when we were discussing several British gangster thrillers and how they are linked to conventional thiller.
Conventional
Lighting shows battle of morality in the contrast of light and dark
Mis-En-Scene shows a theme of bleakness and darkness
Gothic, angular, sharp settings, churches and statue of cupid shows moral ambiguity
Unconventional
Large, light space, focuses more on the characters being insignificant than relying on the theme of intrapment and isolation shown in films like 'The Third Man'
Burger King references to modern culture, doesn't create its own world like many films in 'Film Noir' to display morality, good and evil.
