Notes- exam clip

Use mentor partners to help revise as both have information and can help each other revise.

Stereotypes-

Gendered as camp and butch - wasn't butch so is challenging
Victim/sympathetic
Threat- abnormal
Sexualised - promiscuous - challenging the stereotype

Close ups in breasts - male gaze
Close ups also show the emotion of the characters

Pace- slower transition between cuts

Dark lighting- idea of the privacy

Sex scene- set in bed

Sympathy for the characters who cannot express how they feel as lesbians where frowned upon

Man- straight - straight is seen as threatening in the scene as it is a lesbian scene and she does not want anyone to know she is a lesbian.

White apron- virginify/purity
Red- danger

Slow motion- very important to write about

Composition-
