Kill Bill Vol 2

The opening shot of the scene shows a bride in the centre of the frame, its a mid shot and is used to show the brides dress and also to allow us to see that its a church she is in, this tells us where the scene is set. The woman slowly walks forwards while the camera tracks backwards following her movement. This allows us to see her face and how she reacts to hearing diegetic sounds. It then cuts to a point of view of the bride looking outside. It shows the door frame in the centre which suggests the sound is coming from outside.


When he bride has exited the door it cuts to a close up of a man playing a flute. It shows a view close up to the mans back showing he is looking towards her whereas the woman is at the back of the scene on the left of the shot, this could show tension between the man and the woman as she doesn't feel comfortable being with him. The bride then turns around and is shows with a close up reaction shot when she looks at his face. It also shows this with an high angle shot making the woman look more powerful compared to the man, this may be a reason why there is tension between them.


It then cuts to a medium long shot of the bride stood outside the church. She is still on the left side of the church like earlier which could mean that they have 2 different sides. The background of the shot is a long distance shot of a town, the way it is shown far away could suggest that they go way back and have a long past with each other. The way the woman is now shown on the right suggests they are losing the tension between them as they now don't both have their own side.


It then cuts to a tracking shot close up on the woman's feet as she walks towards him. It then does the exact same thing for the man, it repeats this until both of their feet are next to each other signalling that they are standing next to each other now and have closed that distance between them and that they are getting more comfortable. The next shot shows them in a close up rather than a mid shot which could show that they have gone from being far apart having their own sides to now being able to talk with each other close up. The last shot is a shot of the mans face over the woman's shoulder which confirms that they have lost their tension and are back to how they used to be with their past.
