Assessment how do the 2 films differ in their approach to genre to express the cultures idea, myths,history

I disagree with this statement both the films are different with the country that they came from, by looking at the history we had the Spanish Civil War which was around the time of Pans Labyrinth which made a big impacted on the film. In Amelie we had the French new wave, during the time of the film we had the French riots. Linking in with the Marcos the ideas around the film strongly suggest that the films representation of the country is very strong and has a deeper meaning in to the way the films are shown to the audiences.


fantasy french new wave good, childlike films.french pair city of love,
example,


In both films the myths set the films up as in Amelie we can see by the film that in her world it is the city of love and that is a strong myth from France and when we look at Pans the Spanish Civil war has a big impacted on the film and it also influences the Spanish film culture. When we look at two films in comparison Pans Labyrinth has a message that war is an adults world and that children shouldn't be a part of the war. In Amelie there is no message and many people said that it was a film that only showed the good parts of france and when you visit France Paris there are many things that are going on such as the riots, which had a big impacted on france and the people. The ideas around the film where that they wanted to show the audiences the country and how the films are influnced by them.
