7. Dangling causes You can say foreshowing is a dangling cause It could be the angle of the camera that hits and object and sits they for just long enough for every one to notice it. Or something that may show up one time in the binging and right at the end

8. Dangling cause Is the key phrase “I Hate snakes “ Indy states this early and when finding the ark it re appears in a cave full of snakes Another is when Marion out drink the man at the bar This shows up again in the tent when she wears the dress and begging's the same thing again

9. Motif? Something that keeps showing up over and over Motif A reoccurring object,theme,idea

10. The music Every time Indy enters a room the Theme is played in either up beat tempo or and slow drawn out tempo Same with Marion and the Ark If we do not see the object or person but hear that theme we know that, that is what is going to happen a certain foreshowing

11. Motif And in Raiders The color Red is shown a lot The whole movie is very gray brown not a lot of color and the color red sticks out in very important times
