The Vow Trailer Analysis



"A car accident puts Paige in a coma, and when she wakes up with severe memory loss, her husband Leo works to win her heart again"

The Narrative for this trailer involves Todorov's theory about the different stages. The first stage is the Equilibrium, where Rachael McAdam's character Paige and Channing Tatum's character Leo are happily together getting married, the colours seem to be light around them and high-key sending out the message that the scenes are pure and happy, A scene representing this is when Leo asks Paige to move in with him by spelling it out in blueberries, the stage that comes next is the disruption in the happiness, This is shown in the part when both Paige and Leo are in their car kissing when suddenly a truck strikes the back of their car, which then causes Paige to lose her memory and forget Leo, hich is a main part of disrupting the peace of their bliss.
The repair is the final stage of the theory where Leo tries to win Paige back when she has no clue who he is by trying to re-create things that they have done together to try and restore their lives.
