Examine a few recent fi lms for their use of gesture. Are the gestures used in any way to tie the images together, making them more coherent? Be specifi c. Did you fi nd any fi lm in which gesture plays no signifi cant role?
Watch a silent fi lm such as the Academy Award–winning The Artist (2011). Enumerate the most im portant gestures. If a gesture is repeated, does it accumulate signifi cance? If so, why? Does the absence of dialogue increase the importance of gesture?
