Answers

Answered by GPT-4o mini
Here's a structured answer outline based on your questions about the movie "Wait Until Dark". Since I can't watch the movie with you, I'll provide information you can fill in based on your observations.

1. **What type of apartment does Susy live in? (what floor?) Why is this important?**
- Susy lives in a basement apartment. This is important because it limits her escape routes and adds to the suspense as she is physically and metaphorically "trapped" in a dark, enclosed space.

2. **Which characters just got out of prison? (select 2)**
- Carlino
- Roat

3. **What are the men looking for? (Beginning of movie)**
- They are looking for a doll that has illegal drugs hidden inside it.

4. **List all the set pieces (big furniture) you see in the kitchen.**
- Refrigerator
- Stove
- Sink
- Table and chairs

5. **List all the set pieces (big furniture) in the living room.**
- Couch
- Coffee table
- Armchair
- Bookshelves

6. **Describe the main entrance to me. (Be very detailed to earn your points!!)**
- The main entrance has a solid door that is slightly distressed, indicating wear. It may have a small window allowing light to filter in, but it is mostly obscured. There is a doormat that looks worn. As you enter, you notice that it leads directly into the living area, and there’s a faint light switch to the right that controls the dim light in the hallway.

7. **Spoiler alert: Someone is murdered! Who?**
- Sam, Susy’s husband, is murdered towards the climax of the film.

8. **Where are the windows? Why are they important?**
- The windows are located high up near the ceiling, which means Susy cannot easily access them. This is important because it limits her visibility and communication with the outside world, amplifying her sense of isolation and vulnerability. Additionally, the darkness outside plays a crucial role as the men attempt to use her blindness against her.

9. **What colors do you see mostly? Do you think that relates to the overall mood of the play? Tell me how.**
- You may notice dark and muted colors—blacks, browns, and deep blues—dominating the set design. These colors create an oppressive and tense atmosphere, reflecting the themes of fear and entrapment, which resonate throughout the film.

10. **What does Susy tap on the back of the apartment behind the fridge? WHY? (Towards the end, but not the very end of the movie)**
- Susy taps on the wall behind the fridge to reveal a hidden compartment where she has stashed the actual doll (with the drugs), indicating her resourcefulness and determination to fight back against her tormentors.

11. **What is Susy doing to all of the lights? (Towards the end of the movie)**
- Susy is turning off all the lights in the apartment to create a dark environment, exploiting her blindness to her advantage. This tactic will confuse her assailants and level the playing field in the final confrontation.
