Reaction to The Elevator
I. Summary
The short movie which I tried to summarize and react is "The Elevator." A certain man got on the elevator. Then people got on in every floors. Unfortunately, all the people were fat. The man of protagonist was crushed. He got off the elevator and got on other elevator. The elevator was not crowded and people is thin. But people of the elevator got off for a smell of his sweat.
II. Reaction
1. Characters
A man: He is thin.
People of the first elevator: They are fat.
People of the second elevator: They are thin.
2.Cinematography
All of this movie is an occasion in the elevator. When the elevator opens, it taken by the inside. We don't watch the inside of elevator and people that get on the elevator. By doing so it, we are bubbling. While I get on the elevator, we can watch the inside and thier expression.
3. Message
I think that a message of this movie is to mind the eyes of other people. First, people who got on the elevator didn't think about other people. But, last, a man didn't think about other people.
4. General opinion
I think this movie is concise and easy to understand the essence. I want to think about more other people by not only the elevator but also the trains, too.
