Public Enemies Analysis Without Sound



In the very beginning of the trailer we see men in raincoats holding guns, waiting for an airplane to land, the lighting is also very dark with just the light from a few cars which are parked near the runway; straight away we know it’s a thriller, by the guns and dark lighting. We then see a man in hand cuffs with seven other men with guns walking around him walk out of the plane through an aerial shot, to show the dark and tense atmosphere of the whole scenery. After that there a mid shot of the man who was in hand cuffs, standing by a mug shot with lots of people around him, and by the way his body language is we see he is leaning a police officers shoulder while being interviewed by pres. From this shot the audience again can see it’s a crime comedy thriller, by the criminal man leaning on the police officer and knowing is a crime thriller too because he is surrounded by police officers with guns and is behind bars. We then see the editing speed up as the trailer goes on, the audience sees that he escapes from the prison and there is a lot of shooting and running, with quick camera shots of the man and other characters in the film. We see with the camera shots that he is always holding a gun, showing that he is dangerous, and from the scenery we see that he is always on the move by snow and then sun, this is done by the mise en scene. The audience then sees that the man and another group of people start robbing different banks again showing that it’s a crime thriller. The audience then sees the man kissing a woman, sowing that not only is it a crime comedy thriller to, but there is also romance involved. So throughout the whole trailer the audience gets to pick up a lot of fast paced editing and mise en scene showing that it’s a thriller, and we see this even if we watch it without any sound.
