TOP 5 most powerful TITLES

Ever since I became passionate about cinema, I grew a special love for movie titles. I believe a title has the power to influence the spectator, and to alter his state of mind while he’s watching the movie. A well-thought title can really put you in a certain condition, a position that will make you unconsciously more open to the story. Some of them seem to be the finishing touch of the film by enclosing an elegant tone, a sort of delicious cherry on top. So here are the top 5 movie titles that I find amazing.

5- Back to the future, Robert Zemeckis, 1985

Marty McFly, a 17-year-old high school student, is accidentally sent 30 years into the past in a time-traveling DeLorean invented by his close friend, the eccentric scientist Doc Brown. Out of all time travel movies, I find this one to have the most creative title. The trilogy is a back-and-forth journey where barriers between past and future are taken down and time travelling becomes necessary as the characters are the cause to many butterfly effects. And Back to the Future has a nice ring to it. Executive Sidney Sheinberg wanted the title changed to Spaceman from Pluto, convinced no successful film ever had "future" in the title. Appalled by the new title that Sheinberg wanted to impose, Zemeckis asked producer Steven Spielberg for help. Spielberg wrote a note back to Sheinberg, pretending they thought his title was just a joke, thus embarrassing him into dropping the idea. And thank God he did. Back to the future is the perfect title to picture the bumpy adventure the protagonists are about to be taken on. Because the whole point of these movies is asserting the danger that time travel can unravel and the inevitable repercussions the past can have on the future, and vice versa. In other terms, time is represented as a circle, a fourth dimension that requires to be handled carefully, or more roughly, to be left alone. There. That ought to teach you not to play with space time continuum, next time you come across a Delorean. You’ve been warned.  

4- Kramer vs Kramer, Robert Benton, 1979

Kramer vs. Kramer reflected a cultural change which occurred during the 1970s, when ideas about motherhood and fatherhood were changing. Ted Kramer's wife, Joanna, leaves her husband, allowing for a lost bond to be rediscovered between Ted and his son, Billy. But a heated custody battle over Billy results in unraveling the silenced wounds of each of them. The title in itself puts you right in that middle neutral position, which you’ll have to deal with throughout the whole movie. Because the fact that it’s so hard to take sides with any one of them reflects the genius of the script. The title embodies the whole point of the story, an impossible confrontation between a mother and a father, and whoever is more vital to their son’s life. And we do get attached to both parents. We find that Ted is tenderly overwhelmed by his child, gradually making him a priority in his life; but on the other hand, we can feel the mother’s suffering that she’s had to put up with all these years and we can’t seem to be able to blame her. The film was in fact widely praised for the way in which it gave equal weight and importance to both Joanna and Ted's points of view. Divorce is a debatable question that hasn’t yet found its answer. Because who to choose between a Kramer and a Kramer? Oh dear, this reminds me of the question I was asked the most when I was little. Who do you love more? Mommy or Daddy?

3- Dial M for Murder, Alfred Hitchcock, 1954

An ex-tennis pro carries out a plot to murder his wife. When things go wrong, he improvises a brilliant plan B. When the plot is thought through, it is executed in the most classy and calm way possible, that is reflected in the title. Indeed, the husband does not hesitate once and always seems very relaxed and still. Not our usual wife murderer. The plot he’s imagined depends entirely on a telephone call: he’ll have to call his wife at a precise moment to have her come to the telephone and be killed by the man he hired for that. Dial M for Murder is therefore pure genius, a title that leaves just enough mystery that only makes sense at the climax of the movie. Because not only does the protagonist actually plans to have his wife murdered, but he also presses the button to trigger it. And the cold Englishman so happens to dial the M button on the old phone…M for Murder.

You can watch the genius sequence here (SPOILER ALERT):

The master of suspense is used to the extremes. He had a giant telephone prop built for the fatal shot which was vital for him. Hitchcock chose this ironic title as the finishing touch to his brilliant sneaky action, a crown at the top of his gloomy plot.

2- Slumdog millionaire, Danny Boyle, 2008                

A Mumbai teen explores his upbringing in the slums when he is accused of cheating on the Indian Version of "Who Wants to be a Millionaire?" The oxymoron of the title opposing the terms Slumdog and Millionaire is the central question mark of the movie. The question of whether a “Slumdog” has enough culture to be on this sort of show. But what is culture anyway? The very general, rather ambiguous word that is “knowledge” is personified here as the harsh obstacles you encounter in life. Living on the streets is portrayed as a vertiginous path, a startling journey carved in a series of perilous episodes, all very well captured in this movie. Because many stories have tried to examine these destiny-related interrogations, but this title is beyond doubt the most poetic way to express the unexpected turns life can take. The title alone seems to be confronting us to our dreams. Even a Slumdog can be a millionaire. Aaand why not you? (Just kidding. You’re not a movie character)

1- Requiem for a dream, Darren Aronofsky, 2000

The drug-induced utopias of four people are shattered when their addictions run deep. What an elegant title to a heart-wrenching, dizzy drama with depraved characters ! After reaching a climax where everything seems to be working out for them, the characters soon find themselves on the highway to hell. The movie is, in its whole, a requiem. A requiem for blessed times. A requiem for what these people used to be. A requiem for delusive dreams, the “American dream” as the writer described it. And the very disturbing voyage to hell is brought to life by Aronofsky’s unique filming technique. Concerned to show the subjective drug-induced states of his characters, he alternates between very close and very wide shots with a fish eye technique, in order to portray the descent of his characters, and their smashed dreams. The movie really is an ode to a slow death, a song of pure agony. No doubt that if this story was a music, it would be a mass for dead dreams.
