Screen shot 3 - Extreme Long shot

This is an interesting shot from King Kong (2005). I would say this film is a horror/sci-fi genre. This shot is amazing because of everything going on inside it. The sky takes up half of it, and usually it reflects emotions. I think the clouds represent confusion, and the darkness is negative and worrying. However under the clouds is a beautiful sunset with warm colours thatare there for the love between Kong and the woman. It looks very odd to see a giant gorilla holding a woman with love in his eyes, in an urban city location. Some may argue that this is a mid-shot seeing that half of kongs body is showing, but i think that the woman in the main one in that shot - she is in the middle of the image. We look hard to see her expression and body language, it's weirdly comfortable.
