I am first going to
start out with the fact that I liked the film adapation of "A Clean
Well-Lighted Place". Although there were some things that I could nit-pick
on all day, there was a main detail that was totally wrong and distorted from
the written piece. The shadow of the bush, or rather the fact that there was no
shadow, bothered me. One of the main piece of symbolism was the shadow of the
bush and how the old man was in the shadows in life.
What
I did like about the film production was all the little touches to set the
scene and mood.
I liked the sad
music that was playing as the old man was leaving and the posture of the
waiters, which held true to their characters. Both of these small details made
the film seem medicore instead of pretty bad due to all the missing and
principal details fo the short story.
