The Conversation

The title of the movie basically explains what the movie is all about. The movie revolves around Harry Caul, a surveillance expert that finds a conversation between a woman and a man in a courtyard quiute interesting. With the devices that he built himself, he realizes that he may have put the two people in danger by recording their conversation. Although this was not the first time that this occurred, Harry was very paranoid and almost delusional because he feared that he was being watched. This explains why his apartment have several locks on the door. I can say that this movie was suspenseful because you didn't know what was going to occur next because something strange would suddenly happen. For instance, the part when Harry ws in the hotel and he stepped on the balcony after hearing screaming from the next room and a bloody hand appears on the glass. It affects him because he hides under the cover and goes crazy, you would think he was trying to think nothing ever happened. In this film, I would have to say that I really didn't care for the sound. It really annoyed me because it sounded as if someone was talking in a microphone with stuffed paper of some kind in their mouths the majority of the time. The costumes in this film were okay but I was aware of the raincoat that Harry wore after it was pointed out and I couldn't understand why someone would decide to do such a thing for without a purpose, being that it was dry outside. The setting of the film mainly took place in the courtyard, at his office, and in the hotel. Overall I would say that this was a film that you definitely had to pay close attention to in order to understand what was going on and I found it pretty much interesting.
