Reading perspective and architecture through the film IN THE MOOD FOR LOVE
The undertaking of this essay aims to demonstrate how the use of architecture is relevant to the storytelling in a film, particularly one that relies very much on the local architecture of a specific time period and the landmarks that become significant through repetitive use throughout the story. The spaces used in the film In the Mood for Love can be easily related to those used in everyday life in an oriental city from the 1960s. Because of the importance of perspective seen between existing and obtrusive structures, classical sources are used for comparison in how the film adopts certain principles in aesthetics in order to convey a visually dramatic clarity in the composition or framing of scenes.
