Can the use of Classical Cutting Editing Theory convey the message that the character wants to
convey to the audience? Asa Dibalik's Garam The film is set in the history of the 2000s, so the
classic cutting technique is well suited to use in this film to clarify, dramatize or emphasize for the
purpose of increasing drama and emphasizing emotion. Intercut, Cross Cutting, Match Cutting,
Cut Away, Parallel Cutting,these are the techniques that will develop dramatic aspects in the film.
