Captain Fantastic table scene

table scene analysis:

- already aligned with ben (anti-US ideology- film anti-dominant ideology)- affects viewing of scene
- setting- traditional American family- perfection- idealised
- Ben represents the opposite of this
- us against them feeling- Ben's family sitting directly opposite harpers family
- sound from Jackson's phone enhanced
- handheld camera- underlying tension/discomfort for spectator
- ben presented as isolated from the rest- at head of table
- over shoulder shot of Ben- alignment- in control of situation
- close up shots of Harper and Dave reaction- comparing 2 lifestyles
- men more direct
- pan to show Harpers reaction when Ben calls out Dave
- over the shoulder shots from Ben's perspective (argument outside)- spectator aligned with is perspective
- focus shifts to ben in pan right to him after showing other parents reaction- his triumph
