Specificity

    The scene that I chose to use for this blog is one from the movie Endless Love. In this scene, the main male character, David, goes into a house fire to save his true love's father. This scene took place near the ending of the movie, and from the very beginning, Jade's dad has never had much sympathy for David, and didn't really like him at all. The house fire was started by a knocked over candle in Jade's dead brother's room, and the dad was trying to save some of his lost sons things from being burnt to ashes, when he seemed to get trapped within the flames. Right when David arrived at the scene, he immediately sprinted inside of the house to try and save Jade's dad. After a ton of flame dodging, both of them managed to get out of the fire almost unharmed, excluding a few minor burns.

    I really enjoyed this scene because it made you feel a ton of emotions and was extremely suspenseful. It gave you a jolt of shock and surprise as you watched David go inside the burning house to save his true love's dad, that he had never really liked in the first place. This scene also made you kind of sad because every 30 seconds or so of watching David and the dad trying to escape the house, you would see Jade standing in the front yard screaming and crying hysterically. From the way Jade was acting in this scene, it almost made you think that David was not going to survive or be able to get out without getting seriously injured fatally. I really like it when specific scenes have a lot of suspense, such as this one did, since it makes you want to find out what happens and you can not stop watching or reading it.
