The Sixth Sense Analysis
The sixth sense

The film I am writing about is the sixth sense. It is on the opening scene. The film is directed with experience by M night shyalaman. In the first scene he uses a broad and clever range of techniques to cause suspense and shock. The first scene hosts an important bundle of events. Malcolm and Anna Crowe come home from an awards ceremony, at which Malcolm has received an award for his perseverance and effort in child psychology. They arrive at the house in high spirits and maybe a couple of glasses of wine inside them. They enjoy a short conversation and a glass or two of fine wine in their lounge, before entering their bedroom only to be confronted by one of Malcolm's ex-patients Vincent Gray. He argues with Malcolm and brings up the topic of their old meetings and Vincent demands Malcolm had wrongly diagnosed him. In this review I am going to go into detail the dialogue, acting, soundtrack, camera shots and the sets. Because I believe these are the things that cause most emotion.

The first scene involves Anna entering the basement and taking a bottle of wine down in the basement there is an eerie felling given out by good directing, personally I believe this scene . The lounge scene adds the effect of shock after later scenes reveal a turn around. The acting is good in this scene it shows that the couple are happy and enjoying an evening together. The third scene is that of the bedroom scene with Vincent Gray .In this scene the two talk of the days when Malcolm helped Vincent with his parents break-up and Vincent tells Malcolm that the false diagnosis of himself was what had driven him insane, Vincent insisted that there was more wrong with Vincent than Malcolm made out to

    The soundtrack was impressive and gave suspense and drama as where needed. The special FX was up to date and gave a realistic feel to the movie. The cinematography is what brought this film's ratings up in my opinion. I really like the irony in the lightning, Especially Pegg's use of zoom-ins and quick cuts… hilarious. Also, the camera angles of when Ed drives himself and Shaun to his parent's house dodging zombies left and right was also very entertaining. I believe I almost jumped out of my seat in fright when Ed hit the lurking zombie speeding down the…

    The first scene that will be analyzed is that of opening credits and just how exactly this begins to set the stage for the main theme. In the very first frame, which also becomes the establishing shot, we come to a high angle shot that is zoomed in close on the words "Sunset Blvd" painted on a street curb as the image is also flooded with dramatic nondiegetic music. This becomes very important because the curb is also the gutter. Here, not even ten seconds into the movie, do we get our first glimpse of what the film is about; the mise-en-scene here involving a symbolic visual correlation to the central theme an this gutter frame is depicted through this entire establishing shot. Along with this we get more connection through the voice over actually describing, in an almost a sarcastic manner which should not be the case at all, about a murder on this high class, high status block. It's almost as if this is a clear depiction of the true chaos tied in with how this Hollywood life can and will be to…

    First off I would like to say that I really liked this movie. It was very informative and was well put together. I didn’t know what to expect coming to watch it, but now I understand why this movie was chosen and explains a lot about how families with deaf parents go about their daily lives and all the circumstances they go through. I would recommend this movie to everyone because I think it would make everyone understand a lot more about the Deaf Culture and it was an awesome film.…

    The main differences between these two works come in the motives of the supernatural beings. As demons in the novel The Demonologist are looking for chaos and destruction by possessing people that would be in contact with David Ullman, or these demons are trying to convince David the existence of them and the action of ghosts in the film The Sixth Sense are looking for help or resolution by showing to Cole Sear different times with no reasons to hurt him. These differences can be shown through the analysis of Dr. Marco Ianno changes, the journey of David Ullman and the relationship between Malcolm Crowe and Cole Sear.…

    I have always wanted to see this movie, but never had the time to get around to it. There was so much hype going around about it. When I first heard about the movie coming to theaters, it did not sound like a movie I would like. However, when the word got around to me, I knew I just had to check it out. I must say that I am glad I sat down and watched it in its entirety. My first opinion was totally wrong.…
