Cert: 15
Within our group, we decided that the most appropriate certification for the film we could give was a 15. Our reasons for doing so is due to the feedback we received from our questionnaire. The majority of the people in question stated that they watched films of a high certificate such as an 18 but we felt that an 18 would be too high as there were no gory scenes and no hardcore sexual scenes. After studying this, we settled at certificate 15 as the film may contain scenes of a sexual nature and also strong taboo language and death.
After we brainstormed a few ideas of what our thriller film should be about we decided that we should base it around envy. Our main character Anna has a secret admirer who happens to be her best friend Joe. By making the secret obsessive kill her best friend, this adds surprise to the film but he is not revealed until towards the end. We decided this after reviewing Pascal Bonitzers' theory of partial vision, which agains adds suspense to the film.
