The Plan
- This film follows a man who makes the decision to leave his girlfriend, his home and his life to go to Las Vegas to put all of his money on a roulette machine. Although I didn't particularly enjoy the film, i thought there was a few aspects of it that i could comment on.
- I noticed how the whole film is in black and white, this adds to the dark mood of the character and his very bleek situation. Just the fact that it is set in Las Vegas, which is seen as just a place all about chance adds to the tone of the film. However I think this setting would have worked well with a colour film.
- The soundtrack is a very soulful, thought-provoking piece of music which complements the deep emotions the character is feeling throughout.
- The use of close ups helps us empathise with the character and feel his tension as he puts his life to chance. The close up of the roulette table as he places his bet puts you almost in his eyes, feeling the tension he feels.
