This film opens up blank screen and a voice saying "you gotta open up", the girl replying sounded nervous. there is another women baking a cake with a little girl. she goes to open the door when her boyfriend confesses that he cheated on her.  



from the first two minutes of this film the house can be seen it looks really old, a teenage girl is sharing a room with another teenage girl, this suggests they may not be financially stable. she seems to have moved houses alot and not stuck around long enough anywhere. the scenery is really dull, the charcters look quite unhappy which shows that they may not have had a happy past. she is wearing a red dress the color red suggests love passion romance, and as she looks in the mirror she seems as though after so long she seems to be smiling but then when the argument occurs it seems almost natural to the main character as though she is used to it. although this film is titled 'the perfect man' i think it is more family based and trying to live a life without a guy. It seems as though their mother has been let down by many people which has had a huge impact on the childrens lives.


the film opens up with a R&B track playing in the backround, and a women dressed in smartwear all pink with sunglasses appears on the screen.
From these two minutes the audience can immediately tell that the character is someone famous and is a very spoilt brat and gets her own way. The use of pink suggests that the character is very girly. the weather is sunny, there is bright colours such as pink and orange used. a low angle shot is taken to show buildings the view shows an american scenery. the character is all dolled up with make up and heels which shows she takes great pride and care or her appearance










A CINDERELLA STORY
This film opens up with the camera racing through mountains and a castle appears, just as the castle appears the title of the films comes on the screen, straight away the genre of the film can be seen, the audience know that it's going to be a happy romantic film. There is a voice over where a female character starts of by saying 'once upon a time' it now becomes more clearer to the audience that this going to a fairytale story where something is going to go wrong but in the end the character gets their happily ever after. there is an establishing shot which shows san fransisco and the sun is shining.  There is happy music playing in the background, the character is full of smiles and the atmosphere just seems to perfect too last. The two minutes of this films ends where someone says "make a wish princess " and she closes her eyes, the audience can automatically assume that the second she opens her eyes its all about to change. this film  is very typical and predictable the way everything happens.
