One of the films we watched was Butterflies. This was a film about a boy who has literal butterflies inside his stomach which is a clever way to demonstrate something that every experiences throughout their life. He realises that he has these when he tries to speak during a show and tell because he feels upset that his pet isn't as exciting as the others pets. He is told he has to do things which will be scary for him, making him get over his fear and you see the literal butterflies fly away. I think that was an interesting story line as it shows a child's fear in an interesting way and the way that children and other people get over fears. Although there is not really a twist in this it is exciting as it is based on one child's fear.

HIGH MAINTENANCE

High maintenance is a short film winner of the Sundance film festival. It has a clever plot twist as it is unexpected and extremely clever. It is about robots and how in the world of the film you can simply trade people in and turn them on or off with a switch. I thought that it was extremely cleverly made and at the same time sophisticated with a variety of camera angles and sophisticated colours like warm colours.
A well presented post which offers the films that you viewed as well as a brief comment. In order to achieve a higher level, your analysis should go deeper, showing 'articulate reflection'. For example, draw explicit attention to the 'twist' where relevant, explain what enigma exists, how suspense is created.
