Narration

The use of restricted and unrestricted narration help create a particular feeling throughout a film. The use of restricted narration only allows the audience to know what the characters want the audience to know, we learn this information through conversations and conflicts throughout the film, under the spell of restricted narration we feel for the character. We as the audience want to know more, and ultimately, we find ourselves emotionally attached to the characters. With the use of unrestricted narration, we the audience know more than the characters so we feel like we may have to yell at the screen as they make the wrong decision. Unrestricted narration is very widely used in horror films because it creates a feeling of suspense. The master of suspence Alfred Hitchcock felt that you must inform the audience whenever possible. By knowing more than the characters, you can't help but be on the edge of your seat.

Pesonally I feel that the movie A Civil Action was a rather intriguing and insperational film. I enjoyed the fact that Jan and his associates go insane over the case. I very much disliked the fact that Jan Schlictman loses the industry behind the tannery. Fatcher was a butthole! He was a degenerate immoral excuse for human life. Doing absolutely whatever it takes to win the case no matter how absent minded and senial he may be, he is a deceitful and manipulative person. But not a person more of a morlock or in other words a sewer-urchin. The absolute bottom, lower than a scerpents belly this man deserves no recognition or acknowledgement.
