'How is suspense created in the film you watched in class?'

The film we watched in class was called No Country For Old Men. It was a thriller film and we had to analyze it while while we watched it.
The question asked was ' How is suspense created in the film you watched in class?'.
This film was full of suspense! There was always a part of the film that made you jump, especially when the psycho killer would go looking for his victim.
The suspense created in the film was thought about carefully. The camera shots were filmed very carefully to make the psycho killer look murderous and scary. The Mise-en-Scene was dark most of the time, although the killer would appear in the day occasionally. But the clothes that he wore and the props that he was carrying made him look the part. He always had a gun on him and his hair was long, up to his shoulders, and his facial expressions were always filmed so that his feelings of hatred and murder could be shown.
The music and the sound that was included also added to the suspense that was created. The music would slowly build up when the killer would go looking for his victim.
To sum up this film, it was very suspenseful and the main things that created this suspense was the camera shots and the music.
