This is an 2014 adventure film directed by Francis Collins written by Suzanne Collins produced by Nina Jacobson and John Kilik. The film was given $125,000,000 form Lionsgate studios which had made $337,000,000. The film stars Jenifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson, Liam Hemsworth, Woody Harrelson, Donald Sutherland, Phillip Seymour Hoffman and Julianne Moore.The film won no awards however it was given allot of nominations for Jenifer Lawrence. Films similar to this is the rest of the the series and Battle Royale. For this I shall be looking at the misc en scene and the performance.

In this is shall be looking at the misc en scene of the setting and costume. Most of the film is set inside of a dark grey vault with the people wearing grey jumpsuits as well. This would be communicating to the audience how the people are feeling and what the tone is of the film. This can be seen as in the previous films the more depressing areas were surrounded in the colour grey while the happier part of the film would have been surrounded by colour.

I shall be looking at the performance and contrast in the film. In the film as well we see Katnis (Lawrence) shows a variety of emotions. In one part she appears to be very un energized. This would be demonstrating to the audience that what she is doing isn't exciting or motivating her to do what is wanted. However later on she goes in full contrast and shows a deep sadness.
