Preliminary Mise-En-Analysis


Movie: The Break Up 
Stars: Jennifer Aniston, Vince vaughn







A romantic comedy about a couple who are in a race to keep their luxurious  belongings from their each other, as their break-up continues to get uglier and nastier by the moment. The picture above shows a freeze scene of the couple sitting in a living room, both characters are dressed casually, they are dressed up and have make up on ready for a party or some sort of event. There are many props in the room they are seated in, a painting on a stand is in the background which may suggest that one of them is artistic, another interesting prop is the duvet in the background which can mean that one of them has been sleeping on the sofa. There is  They use low key lighting to help create a specific atmosphere, the couple don't look too happy instead upset, as they sitting far away from each other with there arms folded. There is no eye contact and they both have straight faces, with the addiction of the low key lighting this helps the audience understand whats happening in this scene.
