In the movie New Moon the mise-en-scéne is about a women named Bella who has survived an attack on her life and she is torn by love between two man but they aren 't average men. When Bella goes to celebrate her birthday with her love Edward 's family but Edward 's family who are vampires and cut her finger and she was attacked by members of his family. Edward decides that it isn 't safe for Bella to be with him so he tells her to stay away.

When she is in her reckless period she starts having feeling for Jacob. While That Bella just doing dangerous stuff to hurt Edward.

Once Bella realized that if she did stuff dangerous that she would see a flash of Edward telling her to stop it 's not safe. Even though undefined, The editing of this film made it seem more realistic and more believable. Like in the cliff diving scenes, the water as seen as an bird 's eye view.

The music in this film allowed to kind of feel the heart beat of the character or feel their anticipation. The song "The
