HANNIBAL

HANNIBAL (RIDLEY SCOTT) 2001 

The misen-scene at the begingin is of this big mansion we could tell this from the big establishing shot were we could also see three characters in the shot of this large room. In the next shot there a 3 people converting, the first person to start to talk was a black gentlemen on the left sitting on a sofa  who was talking to a man a in wheel chair, we could only see the distinctive features of the man in the wheel chair but not any detail on his face. In the next shot this person start to talk then very suddenly we see a close up which shows his whole head which appears to be very disfigured, how this happened is not mentioned and reasons as how and when it happened is still unclear. the effect of this could have been to shock the audience and make them feel sick. These men a sitting quite far apart from each other, so some shots were wide shots to show the 2 men conversing but also there were close up shots when there was dialogue.
Afterwards in the next shot we see the gentlemen on the left shows mask to the guy who is very disfigured. There is emphasis made on the mask the there was an almost extreme close up which might have been done to stress the importance of this mask.
