Mise+en+Scene


 * Costume || Christof: Black beret, black turtleneck, round glasses. || He’s dressed in dark clothing, artist, creator like appearance. ||
 * Dialogue || “Good afternoon, good evening and goodnight.” || Old fashioned, happy catchphrase. 1950’s perfect. Makes him seem happy and kind. ||
 * Costume || Truman. Brown jacket, cream pants, brown covered shoes. 50’s hair cut. || We know he his clean cut, well presented. He looks quite geeky. We know he seems to be polite, nice, a naïve nature. ||
 * Body Language || Tense, fake grin/laugh, backed up against car, defensive arm stance. || Can tell he’s scared of the dog, which could indicate another way Christof could trap Truman with his fears. ||
 * Dialogue || “Just promise me one thing. If I die before I reach the summit you’ll eat me as a alternative source of food… ew gross.” || Talking to himself in the mirror pretending as if he’s climbing a mountain. Shows his longing for adventure, also his immature side, like he is a little kid almost in his humour. ||
