Witness (1985) Analysis: In this analysis I looked at the lunch scene in the middle of raising the barn in Peter Weir’s “Witness” made in 1985. I mainly look at dialogue and mise-en-scene.

Approaching the film as a whole‚ it is clear that this scene depicting the death of Bruce Wayne’s parents – Thomas and Martha Wayne – is vital to the story. It was‚ after all‚ Bruce’s resolve that resulted in Batman existing (McKay‚ 2011). This is where Batman

Atonement- Analysis of Scenes The scene starts with a long shot of the three characters walking on a path in the reeds towards the camera. The reason a long shot is used is to establish the setting of the characters. It cuts in to a close up of Robbie to show his emotion as he realises they have made it to the sea.
