I am analyzing the two film stills taken from I,
Robot that were posted on the course website. The first photo I will analyze is
the interrogation scene between Detective Spooner and Sonny. Detective Spooner
who is played by Will Smith is interrogating Sonny who is suspected of
committing murder. Will Smith looks very aggressive and is creating some sort
of barrier between him and the robot by folding his hands in front of him (as
one of the classmates stated in class). This was not noticed when watching the film.
I also noticed that when Sonny replies to detective Spooner when asked the
question if robots can write symphonies. The Robot reverses the question on
him. The camera changes the angle after this question as to give the appearance
of the robot giving the interrogation. Very clever work..
The second film still I will analyze is the huge interrogation scene.
Detective Spooner and Dr Calvin have been on a chase looking for Sonny. He has
found refuge within an assembly line of robots of his kind. The film still seems
every emotionless. Detective Spooner and Dr Calvin are out numbered and are at
the same time in total control. The robots have no emotional expression and all
speak at the same time. As highlighted in the film, there is also a weird
contrast between the lawlessness of Sonny and the obedience of the rest of the
robots.
