What do we learn about the family?

We first see shot we seein this sence is the hole family at the dinner table with the daughter in the middle. Which i think is showing that the only reqason why they are still togther is because of the child.
You can tell that the family is not very close because the lester only speaks to them when there is something wrong with him also Carolyn and are Lester are the furvist away from each other this also represents distance in the family. Carolyn goes through the same routeen every day when eating her dinner showing that she does'nt like change. When they are all at the dinner table Jane is the only peron in the room hat has light on her face showing the audience she is the symbol of the rose in the family, also she is sat right behind the roses on the table more evidence showing that she is the rose of the family. Lester is also shone with bad posture when sitting down i think that this shows signs of weekness and over the years he has been controlled by Carolyn and formed bad posture. There is alot of photos around the house showing that they wasn't like this and something must of happened to make them lose their closness.
The movment of the camera of the first shot when coming in the room is fare away showing the hole family but as the scene on the camera moves closer to the making the audience fell like thay are spying on the family. The long shots in the scene is where they start but get closer and there is a varitiy of astablishing shot.
There is diegetic in the scene which are sounds that are part of the film and non diegetic shots which are sounds that are not apart of the film. There is enthsis with the slow music to catch the moment. The music that Carolyn was playing is called Bail Hai from South Africa which is from 1949 and shows that she is very old fationed.
