Abstract

The Tamil cinema has undergone a cycle of changes from storytelling to production technology and marketing strategies. This article finds out the film language and grammar of movie Anjathey directed by Mysskin. 36 images/shots were selected from the movie and they have been analyzed on the basis of film language, narrative aspects of the story cinematography, sound, and editing. Attempts have been made to understand the use of visual language and grammar to express the story by the use of mise-en-scene.
