Movievocative

Each of us have different relationships with different experiences or situations or phenomenon. And these sometimes change or shift over life. One such shift i have been having for the last few years has to do with #movies or #films or #motionpictures. I shall expand on these over time

THE FIRST FIRSTS

The first scene or the first few lines or sentences or dialogues or the first background score…basically the first experience with the opening scene of the movie have cornered my attention. I have really liked the ways some craftsmen (writer/director/cameramen'/lightsmen/other craftsmen) have thought of putting the opening scene together. Following are some of the lines that could find place in some upcoming movies

1. What is a good way to start a conversation? The beaten path or the out of the box. But how do we know that the other is going to resonate with which one of these? So, you start with a “hello”. And use hello as a placeholder and use its tone and length and pitch to communicate your opening state for the conversation. And then you wait for the other person to say hello, and scope their pitch-tone-state.

2. If someone told you that a sigh sparked off a riot involving hundreds of thousands of people, you too might have one, a deep sigh. 

3. As humans, we seldom like to be checked. Well, not about the time when we enter into a clinic for a health check. And even then, sometimes reluctance engulfs our drag. 

4. Sometimes when we know someone is looking at us, we want to to pretend very hard as if we don’t know that they are looking at us. It’s a great paradox. We want to be noticed, but not to be found. Found weak or vulnerable or the real plural selves we are.

5. Reality is a brutal audience. Sometimes we want to say somethings and we rehearse it just one more time after the hammer of collapse has sentenced us to a frenzy for the hundredth time.
