Phone Booth film comparison



I have chosen to explore into the Phone Booth which is a very high budget film. Directed by Joel Schumacher this film had a budget of 13$ million dollars.

Since my film is going to be low budget compared to Phone Booth, after watching this film I have discovered one element which is significantly important in progressing and building my trailer.

There is a huge similarity in Phone Booth. The main storyline features a character who starts becoming too over confident, cocky and egoistical towards other people. The plot consists of him being too good to be able to lend a stranger the phone for a few minutes. This can be linked to my main character John in my trailer who starts treating everyone around him like dirt. Eventually the main character in Phone Booth is made to look very vulnerable and beg for mercy for his freedom.

It is important I pay a lot of attention to this trailer to learn and gain techniques to include in my trailer, the overall storyline of becoming too good for everyone, being made vulnerable and realizing your mistakes after hand is totally identical to what happens in my storyline.
