The document summarizes how the film "The Roommate" attracted its young audience. It did so by using a college setting, which appeals to those aged 15+ as it depicts the social and enjoyable aspects of college life. It also used the college's empty and spacious locations to imply that anything could happen, drawing attention. Additionally, the film built tension by showing the library as empty and entrapping. It engaged audiences through its use of different bright and dull colors in settings. The ending soundtrack built pressure through its fast percussion and heartbeat that suddenly slowed, leaving the audience wanting more.
