TITLE INSPIRATION:

(Shelton, 2019)

My title is inspired by Stevie Wonder's song 'Isn't She Lovely'. It is about someone who has just had a child and is full of joy and awe. This title, backed up with this context, will allow me to falsely present my film in a happy tone to the audience before they watch it, and so this is crucial to accentuate the shock that they shall feel near the end of the film when they realise that the story in actuality is quite dark and tragic. Also, the fact that the song is about a child emphasises the naiveness of the character known as 'The Girl' in my film, which helps to increase the anxiety that they shall feel when they know the true intentions of the character known as 'The Man' in my film.
