I'm so upset, because I wrote so much and then the STUPID computer removed all of it without saving automatically as it usually does!!!!! ARGHHHH!
The film Rubber, produced in 2010, is an alternative story that follows the adventures and journey of a car tyre. The scene is introduced in the first act to different angle shots of chairs, and the film heavily used the rule of thirds. This is a very artistic way of filming. The car tyre is then introduced, and we see it 'learning to walk' so to speak. With it's wobbly and awkward rolling, we imagine it to be like a baby foal or deer, seeking to use its new legs and walk. This tyre finally learns how to roll by itself, and we sort of gain a small attachment to the object. That is until it tests its skills, and just by concentrating, can blow the heads off other objects, animals and humans. Using screenplay structure (Subtext: The Meaning Behind The Words 2011), the storyline adds to the scene before and after it, and progresses in a chronologically pleasing way, so that we follow the storyline better. The film is almost in real time, in that each scene is a long drawn-out one.
As the tyre doesn't speak throughout the film, the subtext (Sharda 2003) is determined by the music that was used to gain support and sympathy from the viewers.
