When beginning to craft their film, one of the many decisions a filmmaker must make surrounds the grounding of the film, i.e. how many characters, settings, and scenes their film will contain. Often, one might think a more busy and complex film would be best. However, it can also occur that the more subtle and approachable simpler films can become extremely layered and interesting in their fashion. This principle applies to many films but is especially present in Ezekiel Goodman and Hannah Zipperman’s Sylvia, and Samuel Edelsack’s You Still Can, both films that stray away from a more expansive and grand in scale style and instead turn towards a more intimate style that allows viewers to sit in its presence and characters through its usage of specific dialogue styles, color palettes, and music presence.
