Film Title

We did some research to find suitable titles we could use and why they would be relevant to our film. After narrowing our choice down we chose what one we thought would be best and portray the right ideas for our film opening.

• Last Night – This suggests that things have happened the night before but its very vague, similarly to the fact that the girls memory of what happened last night is also very vague but there is some underlying certainty of specific events.
• Notion – A notion could mean a vague understanding or impression which relates to the film as she doesn’t fully know what is going on due to the drugs and alcohol but she can understand that something bad and unwanted is happening to her. When watching this film opening we only get a vague idea of the storyline as we are seeing it from her point of view at some points in one big messy montage of events. It could also mean a sudden desire or whim which shows how she is living in the moment and drinking/taking drugs whenever she desires them, fulfilling her needs there and then without any consideration of the consequences.
• Intoxicated – To be intoxicated is to be under the influence of drugs, alcohol or other substances. This is suitable for our film opening as throughout most of the film she is intoxicated by drugs and alcohol which is an important factor as it is the foundations to the story line to follow and a constant theme throughout the film opening.
• Addicted/Addiction – An Addiction is to have a great interest in a particular thing, usually without having any control over it. In our film opening she is taking drugs and drinking alcohol irresponsibly to the point where she loses control.
• Bad Medicine – Medicine is usually seen as a positive thing that will improve someone’s life in some way but, although she is using drugs to make her feel better, like a medicine, they have a negative overall effect. They changed her life so drastically in a negative way on this one night.
• Cut Off – This title is effective as it shows how she is cut off through what has happened to her causing her to appear quite isolated throughout our film opening.
• Victim – Throughout the film opening the girl is a victim to drugs and alcohol, unable to control herself. Eventually she is also a victim to a serious crime when she is raped. This is the best title for our film as it is simple and relates well to our film content.
