In this post I will be analysis the movie Julie and Julia a 2009 Pg-13 drama/comedy drama which revolves around two real live womans stories.The movie starts off by introducing Julie who is one of the main characters in the movie. and by setting the setting. This is shown using props, sound, close ups, mid shots, a shallow depth of focus, wide shots dissolves. The is also done using the shooting location. The use of the shooting location and sound make the setting seem more realistic. The use of the shooting location made it seem as if the movie was filmed in Paris rather than in New York. This was done by showing shoots of places in New York that looked like what people expect Paris to look like. The use of sound helps to convince the audience that Julie is in Paris France by having the main character speak French during the opening scene. The use of mid shots and a shallow depth of focus helps to keep the focus on Julia and to characterize Julie as a happy, joyful and caring women. The use of mid shots helps to show Julia’s reaction to traveling and to hanging out with her husband and also helps to establish Julie as an important character. Throughout the first two minutes of Julie traveling and hangout with her husband she is always shown smiling and laughing. This helps to show that she is a loving, happy, joyful and caring women. This also helps to emphasize the importance of Julie as a main character since the beginning focuses on Julie and her reactions. The use of close ups on food helps to emphasize that the focus of the movie is on food. The use of close ups on Julia's hands on the other hand helps to emphasize that the movie is also about Julie’s love for food.
