The double- a suspense film

This week I go to Broadway to watch 'The double', it is directed by Richard Ayoade,it tells a story about Simon is a timid man, scratching out an isolated existence in an indifferent world. He is overlooked at work, scorned by his mother, and ignored by the woman of his dreams. He feels powerless to change any of these things. The arrival of a new co-worker, James, serves to upset the balance. James is both Simons exact physical double and his opposite - confident, charismatic and good with women. To Simons horror, James slowly starts taking over his life.

I find it is interesting because it includes body language and suspense. For body language, I remember there is a scene in a bar, Simon and James are talking and their face are different. Simon and James is the same person with same face but different character, Simon shows his powerless by his emotions, but for James his emotion is very confident.

Here are the comparison between Simon and James' emotions. The first is Simon, his finger is moving to show his powerless, and his face is nervous.

The second is James, there is a little contempt on his face, and his tone is strong to show his confident.

For suspense, this film use fast rhythm violin to show the film rhythm, I think it is useful and powerful to show suspense. Also, use two character in one scene is an effective way.

To conclude, it is a useful film for my project with body language, and the use of music to enhance suspense.
