Physco


The film Physco was directed by Alfred Hitchcock, starring Anthony Perkins, Janet leigh, vera Miles and John gavin.

The film physco starts off in black and white,
the picture is quite dark and old fashioned.
Spooky lighting has been created by the use of candles.
The setting of the film is realistic due to the fact that the
film is set within a house, the house looks dark and haunted.
The bad weather sets the mood for the film (pathetic fallacy.)
The pace of the film is slow.

Perfume.

 The film perfume starts off with the birth of a baby in a french fish market, the lighting is dim. The dim lighting and the location of the where the baby was born gives the film and eerie effect. 
The story is of a man who has an amazing sense of smell, he is the worlds finest perfume making, but his work takes a dark turn when he goes looking for the ultimate smell. As he harms young girls to try and get the perfect smell. Right through the film the lighting is dull and the colours of the costumes are bland and dull.
