Virgin Media Short Films - 2:20

2:20 a film about fate and when its time to go its your time. I believe this film is about a man who makes a bad choice in ignoring "Amy" Who could be many different things to the man in the video and because of this he comes to his end? This could be a logical way of looking at the film also notice when he looks at his phone, the time 2:20. This could be that at this time he ignored Amy and moments later he was what appeared to be dead.

The glasses were in someone else's possession at the time of 2:20 and went from one person to another in a space of minutes. Had he not have been given the glasses he could still be alive and sitting there on the seat or even without the glasses would he have been dead. He would most likely be dead even so as the moral of the story is the time and date that you are going to die. Hence the date and time about the people's head when he puts the glasses on.

The woman in the short film could have been the Angel of death as some people say. she could have been the whole reason for his existence and the whole reason in which he died.

The film was very good and very eye catching with a very good and strogn story. i like this film as it is clear wjhat is going on but also it is realistic and represents peopls views and faiths in fate and when its your time to die, it is time you cannot change that.

I also like the setting of the film in the high street as the colours are good against his back and also when the woman walks along the sidewalk with her trolley it is very dark again relating back to the angel of death.

The camera shots used in the film were very good and set the seen as well. The way it shown the woman's feet and the wheels of the trolley creates a tense and dramatic opening to the film. The shot from over the woman's shoulder looking at the man and vise versa shows that these are the main two people in the film also that these are gonna be involved with each other in the film.

The main feature i liked in the film was the story line and the use of glasses in the film as these are the main focus. If he was not given the glasses would he still be alive? Why did he die? What was the reason? Some questions are sparked straight away and creates the amazing but simple story of the film making it brilliant. 5 out of 5 from me.
