I analysed the documentary The Night Mail linked here . The documentary was from 1936 about the railway train around London, Midland and Wales delivering post. It is based on the the poem by W H Auden of the Night Mail. It was directed by Harry Watt and Basil Wright and has become a classic, now considered a masterpiece of the British Documentary Film Movement. I used similar techniques to when I analysis TV drama extracts - looking for sound, camera movement, editing and mise en scene and the impact all these areas have together.
