One Marvelous Scene — Spider-Man: Homecoming
One of my favorite scenes in the MCU is the car ride to homecoming in Spider-Man: Homecoming. At first glance, this scene could be straight out of any high school comedy, especially since the film was intentionally modeled after the John Hughes high school comedies of the 80's. But being in a superhero film, and following a huge revelation in the story, it is also a scene of real tension—three characters trapped in car, trying to hide some really big secrets. So in this video we explore why the twist that sets the stage for the scene is so effective. We examine how the characters' secrets are teased out in a way that keeps the scene dynamic. And we look at the importance of crafting clever obstacles to put in the way of your characters.
