TYSON: THE MOVIE
Tyson: The movie is a biographical documentary film based on the life and career of boxer Mike Tyson,
The film opens with bright opening titles that fade in and out and are each a different colour this could be used to suggest the different personalities of Mike Tyson as in his career we saw lots of sides to him. this is also unconventional as usually documentaries try and only have one colour all the way through, and again this shows the unconventional life of Mike Tyson.
When the film starts the director doesn't show Mike Tyson in his present form but shows him in his prime when he was younger and he does this by using archive footage of a fight that he was in when he first won the world title.
and also uses multiple split screens which show different pieces of the fight which changes the juxjaposition of the frame and also freeze frames are used inside the split screens. this is done in a fragmented way which also goes with Tyson's now fragmented mind as he can't really remember much anymore.
you can also hear the crowd noise which is amplified over the sound of the comentetors of the match, and you can also hear the impact of the punches which are landing very heavilly on Tyson's opponent , the director would've had to edit this in as tha original wouldn't have had it.
and also when using the archive footage we get close ups of both fighter before the fight which again would've been edited in because it wouldn't have been in the original, but it also shows the tension before the fight.
the split sreens then fade as a ring bell is sounded and the title of the film fades in and is a harsh font and is firery which illudes to Tyson's firery temper, which is dangerous and out of control.
it then cuts into more archive footage of him as an amature and also has pictures of him when he went to the 1980 omlympics with team USA. then cuts in and out of footage of a younger Tyson to him now in his house, the director also uses Tyson's voice as a voice over at times during the first five minutes.
JOHNNY CASH MUSIC VIDEO : HURT.
this video is about death and wanting to hurt in order to feel something and wanting to start over again but not bin able to.
the video starts with an medium long shot of him sitting down and singing and then it goes into a close up of him singing
then it shows the American flag, this shows that he was an American icon, that he was living the American dream.
then it shows a building which is no longer open to the public but was once open all the time, it was a museum for johnny cash that his fans could go to, this symbolises the end of his career as a singer.
he was also always known as the man in black so in the music video he is again wearing all back with sequins on them.
it then cuts to inside the house and it shows that it is cluttered which shows that he has gotten old,
it then cuts to archive footage of him as a young man (footage on the steam train) and also uses home video footage of him with his son which again shows him as a young man.
in the line ' everyone i know goes away' a picture of his mom comes up this suggests that he misses her and that he feel like he may have disappointed her at one point in his life and that he is sorry.
there is also a shot of hm at the dinner table alone with lots of food an wine and he then starts to pure the wine onto the table this could tie in with religious ideology as this could have been his last supper or his last hurrah as a performer aswell
it then shows him getting emtional at the table which shows that at some points it has been too much for him.
his wife also apears in the video near the end on his right hand side as if she was an angel watching over him and it also shows that behind every great man there is a great woman.
then as the video ends a montage of johnny cash starts and it also ties in clips of jesus christ in it aswell to show that both have sacrificed alot for the people they love but also that they both carried a burden on their shoulders for a very long time.
then the video closes with two different shots:
a picture of his first ever performance and a shot of him closing the piano and stroking it here we see simultainiouly the beginning and the end of his singing career.
