The other character i decided to analyse was Bryan Mills. Liam Neeson's famous
role from Taken. I chose to look at this character as it is a very well known
role, as well as an inspiration to myself and the group. It also just happens to
be of great relevance to our group as we look to be basing our thriller opening
on a crime thriller as well as possibly having our protagonist as a former agent
of some sort. Bryan Mills is a former U.S. C.I.A agent. Similarly to my other
case study and most thriller protagonists, he is used to develop the conventions
- once again, focusing on the same sub-genre, the narrative is centred around
crime, kidnapping his daughter and human trafficking.
This one important enigma is set up right at the beginning of the film and
only further complicated with a major build of suspense and tension all through
the film. One of the major scenes in this film favourited by many is the phone
scene which instantly tells us about the character - a ruthless ex C.I.A agent
who will do whatever it takes to ensure his daughters safety.
