I analyze the first three minutes of Steven Spielberg's "Raiders of the Lost Ark," starring Harrison Ford. This analysis is from a film critic perspective. I talk about how the shots and editing influence movie viewers. We will look at how the shots create the character of Indiana Jones, how they make meaning, and why they matter.
This video is for an introduction to film class, for aspiring film critics, and for movie viewers who want to know more about movies.
