Describe what Robert B. Ray means by “the avoidance of choice” (both formal and thematic) in the classical Hollywood cinema, then say why or why not you think the film Carol is an example of classical filmmaking. Does it reduce large-scale social problems to the problems of individual characters? Does it maintain objectivity, clearly separating subjective experience from objective reality? (Patricia White, for example, thinks Carol’s “setting [is] more fully realized than … [its] story”; “the story’s duration is vague”; “Therese’s head is established as the real location in which the film unfolds,” and so on.)
