observation 10

1) I think the film tries to argue that everyone has something to offer the world and that anything is possible. It argues this by taking an orphan who becomes a slave and then because of his talent begins to work for one of the most well known perfume makers in Paris.
2) The movie uses visual appeals to present all the different smells in the movie. For example when the boy smells the rat the camera zooms inside the rat so the audience can see that it is filled with maggots, which is a sort of logos appeal because it is logical for the audience to think that smell would be terrible.
3) When the boy is unhappy and in slavery everything is dark and the people and environment seem dirty, which represents how the main character is feeling. When the main character is feeling positive and smelling good things, the lighting gets brighter and the people’s costumes are brighter colors.
4) I don’t really like this movie, I find it morbid and I don’t like all the sharp inhales and nose close ups.
