Note on a Scandal



Notes on a Scandal was released in 2007, by Director Richard Eyre. Its the story of an affair between a young art teacher, and her 15 year old student. Which is discovered by an older teacher who has befriended her. The scandal is then used to for the older teacher to control and have power over the younger. Again these show similar themes of betrayal, drama and thriller aspects. An ominous feeling we want to give our audience when watching Delilahs fall.

Unfaithful



Directed by Adrian Lyne, the drama is a key aspect to this film. Its very strong throughout the film and where the film lacks a moral teaching, the drama keeps it fast paced and enthralling. This idea of the fast paced, quick cut story appeals to our story because of the themes. We see her play between the two men, and although her motives are different we see how she slowly becomes discovered.
