4min 35sec clip - #first and #final movie scenes - part 2
First and Final Frames Part II from Jacob T. Swinney on Vimeo.
text from source site "After numerous requests, I finally decided to create a sequel to "First and Final Frames". Part II plays the opening and closing shots of 70 films side-by-side. Like the first video, some of the opening shots are strikingly similar to the final shots, while others are vastly different--both serving a purpose in communicating various themes. The side-by-side comparison can communicate an entire story, but also allows us to develop new theories about a given film. So once again, what can we learn from examining the first and final frames of a film? My deepest thanks to everyone for the praise and support on the first video!View Part 1 in 8th Nov 2020 post

Some of the opening shots are strikingly similar to the final shots, while others are vastly different--both serving a purpose in communicating various themes. Some show progress, some show decline, and some are simply impactful images used to begin and end a film.

twttr's first post
I've just noticed that somebody called Jack has said the following on twttr
Honestly what on earth is this all about?
The ability to craft messages of any length on this platform seems to be very limited ....
and so it's utility will be minimal in terms of its ability to inform on breaking news
mark my words - nothing will come of it ...
and the chances of me being wrong on this
are as distant as Donald Trump being the Republicans choice for the Presidential race
