Godfather baptism analysis and M2 analysis

The scene has a sound bridge, the same music plays in each different shot, a different person gets killed but the music stays the same.

There's cross cutting, as all these murders are happening at the same time, during Michael's grandson's christening. And before, the set up to these murders happen during the christening also. These events are in sync.

Medium close up, after Moe Greene has been shot the scene cuts to his face, this is effective as we see the aftermath of him being shot, we see first hand all the blood coming out of him, thus showing the gore of the situation. Another medium close up is when Michael is being asked if he renounces Satan, this scene allows us to the see the cold calm killer that he has become over the course of the entire film.

Diagetic sound; gunshots, baby crying, the priest,

Shallow focus, the shots focus on Michael and Michael only, the other attendees are out of focus which means that they're irrelevant to the scene entirely and we have to focus on Michael Corleone

The dominant image of this magazine is the main selling point, it's of Tom Hiddleston so it makes it clear that his story is the main one.

However, in this magazine the stories themselves are equally sized, which shows that there's not a dominant story but the dominant image will make you focus on the story to do with that.
