Lilo & Stitch- Film notes.

To understand the film better and to see if I could find any links with the weather and the effects on the plot I felt it was best to watch it and take notes from this. This way I could look at elements that I felt could be relevant to me that would't necessarily be noted in any other source.


  • Based on alien experiment escaping to Earth and making home as a pet dog with a small girl
  • Introduction of space and aliens is different- newer concept for Disney films 
  • Start introduces Stitch and his background- good link to set of rest of film with use of music 
  • Positive music- montage suggests life of Lilo is happy 
  • Hawaiian based 
  • Music suddenly stops when trouble is caused by Lilo 
  • Similar to Tarzan mixed emotions in fist few minutes 
  • Elvis soundtrack- used to signify Lilo's emotion 
  • Loss in power in house when Stitch enters atmosphere 
  • Also happens during night and rain- suggests Stitch is bad- good character representation 
  • Daylight when Stitch meets Lilo 
  • Adopted as a dog 
  • Disney films use music and montages to pass time and show development of characters 
  • Lilo's parents killed in a car crash in rain 
  • Music more signifier than weather- compared to Tarzan 
  • Happy ending within plot for all good characters 
  • Ends with a music montage- good link into credits
