Summary:
After sharing the Shout scene from wedding crashers, I
believe its clear to see that the clip explains the theme of the movie:
Adventure. I feel as if the theme of
this movie is active. The scene shows
all of the different weddings the main characters crash and what they do for
fun. Also, showing all of the weddings
in one montage foreshadows that something will happen to twist the movie in an
upcoming wedding.
The scene I chose from Wedding Crashers expresses the theme
of adventure by utilizing the aspects of movement and rhythm. In the scene, they show all the weddings the
main characters crash during “wedding season”.
Not only are they playing what seems to be movie’s theme song, but they
are also jumping all together to create a rhythm to the song. This portrays that the film will be action
packed and there is a twist expected later on in the movie. Rhythm is the most easily recognized out of
the scene. All the people jumping all
together every time the song screams, “SHOUT!”.
This, to me, foreshadows the upcoming twist because clearly they have
already been to so many weddings that something significant must happen at an
upcoming event. Not only is rhythm used,
the rhythm as well as the movement is expressed with affinity in the
aspects. The affinity within the two
attributes makes the scene flow very well and sets a base theme for the
audience. While the audience is so
interested and excited about what is going on in the scene, there is irony that
is expressed sub textually. The audience
is enjoying the clip as if they were there, but they aren’t noticing the irony
that the characters have no affiliation with the families that getting
married. This clip from wedding crashers
portrays a theme of adventure by using rhythm and movement to help the audience
understand the basis line of the film, while foreshadowing upcoming twists.
