This article, written by Rachael Hodder, goes to show how different an experience at Carltonâs cinema can be. The piece identifies how patrons of the Nova can go to the theater and experience the ânext box-office hitâ (Hodder 2000) at the Nova without watching a film through its new initiative 'Script Alive!' This involves a series of screenplay readings performed by qualified actors with a director and writer present, that help give insight into how the script of a particular film will be read/rehearsed, thus providing a more intimate understanding of the how a movie could be interpreted and viewed. Hodder (2000) shows Haydn Keenan, an independent film maker who made Shadow Boxing, give his thoughts on the initiative: âI think itâs got real dynamic potential. I think it can travelâ. He continues: âI think the thing thatâs most important about this is that it starts to stir up some intercourse in the Melbourne film industryâ. The article aims at portraying Cinema Nova as a very unique and independent art house where people from all demographics can enjoy the components of a film without actually watching one. It seems to cater for those who have an in-depth interest and knowledge in the film industry who want a more intimate understanding of the concepts within a movie. While this may be controversial, the piece further emphasizes how different and unique the Nova is and the extent to which the cinema will go to satisfy all types of audiences who attend its theatre. Hodder (2000) illustrates the Novaâs distinctive attempt to connect an audience with all aspects of a particular film. It not only gives people within the industry a look at the dynamics of the script of a particular movie, but it gives interested members of the public a chance to analyze and explore the concepts of a film. |
