Observation 10

1.) The film argues that everyone is unique in his or her own way, but some of the uniqueness is not constructive as is the cast in Perfume. Although Jean-Baptiste has an incredible sense of smell, he uses his talent in a unique and terrifying way.
2.) The film uses different lighting and sounds to portray the essence of a particular part or object in the film. For example, when Jean-Baptiste found the apple on the ground the smelled delicious, the dirt around it was dark as well as his hand, but the apple itself almost illuminated.
3.) The use of all of these helps to support the argument by emphasizing the various aspects of the movie that the directors wanted to bring forward to be recognized by the audience. The use of colors and shadows were the main supporters for the argument throughout the movie to depict certain scenes to mean certain things.
4.) The movie was creepy, but the plot made it worthwhile. Also, the emphasis on Jean-Baptiste nose throughout the movie showed how dependent he was on smelling everything in sight.
