About Sweeney Todd by Kim Jeong-Hyeon (11408043)

1. What is Sweeney Todd about?

- This movie is about a man who lost his wife and daughter because of judge, so he seeks his revenge. he made many crimes. He could not see anything because he has revengeful thought. he only thinking about kill judge who stolen his wife and daughter and sent him jail. It is his goal.
he was doing everything for his goal, but it made tragic ending. he killed his wife by himself. I think the main idea of this movie is some revengeful thought could be poor

2. Do you think it was based on a true story? Explain!

- Actually, I do not know, but it could based on true story, because I think some people who has power as judge in the movie at that era, if they want to get something they use their power for it. because of it common people like benjamin in the movie can have anger to people who have power, so I think it could based on true story.

3. How can the music underline the meaning of the words?

- because the music has melody, melody will help people to feel mood of the situation. For example, if Mr, todd said " I will kill him" without sound, we will understand the meaning of the words that definition meaning, but if we heard same sentence with anger sound which use many base sounds, we can feel that he said this sentence with anger. because of it I think the music help people to feel and understand what is the meaning of the words.


4. Do you like the way the music play a part of this movie? Explain!

- Yes, because I tried to watch this movie without music I mean, sound. I did not get any thing from this movie. I could not into it. this movie could like funny movie. actor always open their month and so on. However, when I watched this movie with the music I could feel each character's feelings. the way the music play of this movie really help to understand this movie. that is why I like it.

5. What is your favorite part? How does it communicate the messege to you?

- Mr.Todd told his daughter "forger my face". just into this part, because his daughter saw Todd kill judge and her real mother. that judge ( mr, bumkin? ) is only one family to her, and she does not know her real father's face. that time is the first time she met her real father, but Todd told her that forget his face, because he had to check up downstair at that time. what a poor family is. all of this from mr.Todd's revenge. He only see his anger even his family were around him he could not see them. Moreover, he gave bad memories to his daughter that he killed judge and his wife.
