Final Review of Contraction by Chris Hewitt & James Cambourne

Film Link: http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/filmnetwork/A55119864

This is the final film that I will review. The film itself is again very short. It shows a man laying down on the ground dead, and then a woman coming and doing a mouth to mouth, the woman then tries the resussitation method, as she is doing this, the ground is cracking underneath them. At the end of the film the man wakes up and the woman asks him "Where did you go". The man looks very confused. The main idea of the film is about rebirth. It was made to put questions into peoples heads about what might have happened before. Personally, I think that the man had fallen from the building becuase they film from the top of what looks like the top of a building. The backing sounds behind are very echoey. This makes it feel as if the man and the woman are both alone and no one else is around to help them. The man looking confused at the end could mean that he is reborn with a babies mind, and is completely new to the world again. I think this film is very thought provoking and effective.
