Title Research: Fried Green Potatoes

The titles that are being played the opening sequence is the production companies, the kind of production it is, and the actors of the movies. They have the title of the movie (Fried Green Potatoes) , the special appearance, and the person who did the casting. We can’t forget the producers, the editors, and who’s the music by. They also include the costume designer, production designer, and who directed photography.  They also put what it was based on, who’s the screenplay by, and the official director. The images that are in the opening sequence is a lake, a car, and a neighborhood. There are 2 houses, a man in a telephone booth, and a small café. You can see their menu, a lady in a car, and a deer. The lake and car means that someone crashed their car into the lake in some neighborhood. The lady in the car is waiting for the man in the telephone booth so they made a stop because they got lost. The deer represents the part of the world they’re in, and it’s the deep South. This film establishes a feeling of Drama because lighting is natural, which makes it realistic. You can also see the plot forming when the woman and man is talking. You can tell they often get in conflict with each other. They make the man a little mean, and the lady really nice, so it kind of appeals to feminists. Technology really has been used effectively because they use a closeup on the car. Then after the close up, they zoom out slowly so you can see the whole car and where it’s at. They do a very long take on the car before they use dissolve to go to the next scene. They use a wide shot so you can see where the man and woman is at, then they automatically cut to the man. After you see the man, they cut to the woman sitting in the car. They use eyeline match so you can see what she’s staring at, and it’s the menu. I got this film from artofthetitle.com
