I chose to analyze Rumble fish, and I've found very interesting things, especially about the sound and the camera angles. The sound design of the film is very well integrated with all the other elements, and in some moments it gets a very important narrative purpose. Besides that, I also noticed the use of camera angles helping with the narrative, to reinforce pre-established concepts and sometimes to show the characters feelings and emotions. To exemplify aspects of the sound design, we can look at the scene where Rusty James is lying is his bed after been hurt in the fight he had, and his brother is next to him reading a book, and he founds a picture of both of them as children, then he smiles and looks to Rusty; In this scene we can hear children playing and shouting, with a lot of ambience and reverb, so it reinforces the idea that Rusty's brother is remembering their childhood. It's also used in the scene where Rusty, his brother and Steve were walking in the street and Steve asks the motorcycle boy if he is colorblind indeed, and if he is deaf too, and all the background sound is this scene have much reverb and the dialog is lower than the usual, as if we were hearing through the motorcycle boy's perspective. We can also notice in the bar scene, where there are people playing snooker and Rusty is very drunk, that when he sees the trumpet player, we hear a motorcycle sound, that function as a representation of Rusty's thoughts, showing that now he is aware that his brother is not around anymore, and then the background sound becomes very low and the music gets emphasis with some reverb, to cause disorientation. So, to sum up, the score and the sound design in the movie is used to help us understand what is going on in the characters head: what they are thinking or feeling. And this very specific narrative function is not just heard throughout the movie, but it's often showed to us by the use of high or low angle cameras. These angled cameras can give us more information than the dialog in most cases, as for an example on the scene that the motorcycle boy is killed, we see the police officer in a very low angle, attributing power to his figure. Or in the beginning of the movie, before the motorcycle boy appears, Rusty is often portrayed in a low angle, especially when he is with his friends, to show his state of mind and his perception, as if he was indestructible. And the opposite happens in the scene that takes place under a bridge where the motorcycle boy is looking to Rusty and Steve, and since he is the reference for both of them, a high angle is used to show Rusty and Steve below the motorcycle boy, as if he was greater than them; in this case the angle of the camera portrays Rusty's image of his brother.
