North by North-West

Crop duster scene:

Hitchcock said that thrillers allow the audience, "to put their toe in the cold water of fear to see what it is like.

Sound: to begin with there is no noise it is silent, this is due to the fact that nothing important is happening, rarely cars will drive past Cary Grant and you can hear the crop duster in the distance, these sounds are parralel as they match what is happening on screen.
However this all starts to change as the crop duster begins to chase Cary Grant the noise of the plane gets louder and there are a few gunshots. It is when the plane crashes into the tank that the Non Diagetic music begins, the music that is not in the world of the movie the music is parralel as it portrays the danger and mystery of the situation.

Mise-en-Scene: the scene takes plae on a desert road in the middle of nowhere with Cary Grant standing alone, this is used to show that he is vunerable and has no one to help him if trouble arrises

Trailer:

I think the trailer appeals to the audience as it highlits a few key plot points and shows action, romance and suspense which will all entice the audience.

Archetypal Thriller: North by North-West is an archetypal thriller as it has the senses of mystery and suspense plus the major plot points such as a villian driven plot and red herrings.



North by North-West is a very good example of a Villain driven plot, Roger Thornhill only does things according to how the villain wants him to for example when he thinks he is meeting up with the person he is accused of being he is set up and almost murdered by a crop duster.
