A Synopsis of the Movie Twilight: New Moon

dusk New Moon *Mise*-en-scene Title Twilight New Moon Year 2009 Director Chris Weitz Writers Stephanie Meyer (novelist) and Melissa Rosenburg (screenplay) Actors/Actresses Robert Pattinson-Edward Cullen, Kristen Stewart-Bella Swan, Taylor Lautner-Jacob Black, Ashley Greene-Alice Cullen Synopsis This movie is the sequel to Twilight, which was a major(ip) hit in 2008. In the first movie Bella Swan falls in enjoy with a vampire. The vampire, Edward Cullen, is very valueive of Bella and tries to keep her safe.In New Moon Edward feels that the only way to protect Bella is to hightail it her heart so she wont follow him. However after Edward leaves Bella comes face to face with risk and the only protection she has is her long-time friend Jacob who she realizes is a werewolf. By the end of the movie Bella is torn between her love for the werewolf and the vampire. Analysis My focus is on scene nine where Bella is confronted by the Cullens vampire rival, LaRon. LaRons intent is to kill B ella now that Edward has left her defenseless.The scene is set in the meadow where Edward first appeared to Bella in his rightful(a) form. When the sunlight shined on Edward his skin glistened like diamonds. At that time the meadow was beautiful, the grass was green, the flowers were in vibrant full bloom, and the sunlight shined down so bright. Now that Edward has left the meadow is dead, the grass has glowering brown, all the flowers are gone, and the lighting is low and gloomy. I like to think of this as a simile to Bellas spirit how it was alive and vibrant with Edwards presence and is now dull and a tell of her has died.Also you see her in a dangerous position world face to face with LaRon without Edward being there to protect her like before. Then Jacob appears in the scene in his werewolf form to protect Bella. However at this act she does not realize it is Jacob. Here we are seeing Jacob in his true form appear to Bella just as Edward did for the first time and in the same location. It almost seems as though Jacob has taken on Edwards role in Bellas world. There is one throw where the rest of the wolf pack proceeds on to kill LaRon and Jacob stops and turns his focus to Bella for one moment and then moves on.At this moment Bella is mere feet away from this massive wolf but she stands there and looks keep going at the creature. The up-close piquancy of the wolfs eye as he is gazing at Bella shows her reflection and you rotter feel his harmless nature. This is where it all came together for me and I thought Bella had pieced together the clues but I wasnt until two scenes later that she realized it had been Jacob that rescued her. In one still frame the full shot conveyed danger, protection, love, and loss. This was a very well-organized scene and I think it worked well in the movie and added drama and quaver for the audience.
