foreshadowing in film

Foreshadowing in film is a storytelling technique where hints or clues are subtly provided to suggest events that will occur later in the story. This technique builds anticipation and tension, engaging the audience by making them curious about how these hints will play out. Foreshadowing can take many forms, including dialogue, visual imagery, or musical cues. When done effectively, it enriches the narrative by creating a cohesive and satisfying experience, as viewers can connect the dots when later events unfold, enhancing both emotional impact and plot cohesion.
