Willing suspension of disbelief is a phrase used to describe the
feeling that an audience has when they are willing something to happen, and
more often than not it does not, due to a change in plot or story. Willing
suspension of disbelief is used in many films in order to build suspense for a
long time and allowing nothing to come of it, a famous example of this would be
in Jaws. Suspension can be created through music and dialogue, one example of
using dialogue would be a villain asking a lot of questions, this happens in No
Country for Old Men – Coen Brothers, when fate is used create the suspense and
the audience are oblivious to what is coming.
Within our film there will be a certain use of willing suspension of disbelief due to the film being in the format of being backwards in a sense. I think that the audience would think that something dramatic will instantly happen due to the nature of the film, but the suspension concludes the end of our beginning five minutes therefore we do not see it initially.
