Film Analysis of the interim scenes...

These parts do not correspond to our key scenes, but may be worth mentioning anyway...


Doesn’t apply to any set scene but is relevant for the character of LM

47:40 – LM leads police press conference.
52:40 LM sings ‘Oh Lord won’t you buy me a Mercedes Benz’. Shows how materialistic she is.
53:00 – 1:04:00 – Macbeth gradually becomes more power hungry and starts showing signs of going a bit mad. He also confesses to taking drugs and tells ‘Banquo’ ‘I’m just a bit wired’ when he begins to act strange.
1:08:44 – M goes crazy at the feast. He says to LM ‘Why won’t you look at me? You look at yourself in the mirror, but you won’t look at me.’ ‘Am I worse than you?’
It also becomes obvious that LM has been coaching him what to say.
1:09:00 – LM remains calm as M has a breakdown
1:10:20 – LM partly blames M for the breakdown of the relationship ‘ We were together once but then you stopped talking to me.’ Implies that the murder hasn’t bothered her, but the fact that he is shutting her out is.
1:10:45 – LM is watched by M in the shower. He sees her covered in blood. Image of blame from director.
1:12:00 -  LM starts to look bothered/out of control when the customers leave the restaurant. Ie, when the restaurant gets out of control.
