A specific kind of montage or montage element: the subject of the montage is contrasted with a different character or situation, to maximize the drama. Can be applied to other montages; for example, a Good Times and Sad-Times Montage, or a Training Montage that contrasts the hero's method against that of The Rival. The Montage Out, Lost Love Montage and Really Dead Montage are all particularly likely to juxtapose positive and negative elements this way. Compare Unreliable Voiceover. |

The manga adaptation of Breath of Fire IV has the contrasting experiences of both Ryu and his counterpart, Fou-lu. For Ryu, almost everything he saw have humanity being positive and a good influence from his True Companions with The Power of Friendship. This was shown when Nina gives him a Cooldown Hug to calm down his Unstoppable Rage and first transformation into the Kaiser Dragon. Fou-lu, however, was a subverted King in the Mountain, who was seen as an Unwanted Revival by the corrupted Fou Empire and was actively pursued to be killed by them. He ultimately snaps after his love interest was tortured and sacrificed to be used as fuel for the Hex Cannon against him, upon which he decides to Kill All Humans because Humans Are the Real Monsters. |

The season 4 episode of House of Cards (US) that introduces Republican presidential nominee Will Conway uses this trope to contrast him from series protagonist and Democratic presidential nominee Frank Underwood. Conway enjoys spirited “good morning� sex on the bathroom counter with Hannah, while Frank stands alone in front of a bathroom vanity filled with recovery medications as Claire peeks in from a cautious distance. After the quickie with his spouse, Conway goofs around with one of his adorable moppet children; meanwhile, a subdued Frank discusses with Claire the importance of staying focused on their political agenda instead of worrying about their personal relationship. | |

Rocky Rocky III: The opening montage explicitly contrasts Rocky's rich lifestyle with Clubber Lang's rough and tumble rise to the top. Rocky IV: The Training Montage was all about this: Rocky's rustic Training from Hell is contrasted with Ivan Drago's super-scientific and soulless training regimen. This helps define the difference between the two fighters: Rocky has heart, while Drago is empty. |

Arthur Bishop and Steve McKenna using a variety of automatic weapons and a Barrett fifty-calibre rifle on an improvised firing range are alternated with scenes of Steve's daily routine with his chihuahua, which is meant to set up the interest of Steve's first target, a Manly Gay hitman who likes young men with cute dogs. | |

The Meaning of One: Harry and Ginny simultaneously watch the Dursley and Weasley families get ready for breakfast — even seeing Vernon Dursley and Arthur Weasley reading the newspaper and having a drink at the same time — but with stark differences between them. Vernon is irritable, while Arthur is calm. The Dursleys demand that Harry cook breakfast for everyone, with Petunia frowning suspiciously at him the whole time, while at the Burrow, Mrs Weasley offers to take care of it. The breaking point, however, is when Vernon slaps Harry's hand down into the table for attempting to take a piece of bacon to go with his single slice of toast, while Dudley has four slices of toast, six rashers of bacon, five sausages, and four eggs. Vernon apparently intends to reserve the rest of the bacon for him too. Once Harry is evacuated to the Weasleys' home, Mrs Weasley fills a plate to overflowing for him and tells him that "There's plenty more where that came from." | |

Supernatural. "Free To Be You And Me" juxtaposes the temporarily separated Dean and Sam, with Dean doing his usual business of icing monsters intercut with Sam's attempts to hold down a normal job and life. In "Exile on Main Street", Dean has done the same, and scenes of his normal life are intercut with flashbacks to life as a Hunter. In "The Slice Girls", Dean having sex with a Girl of the Week is intercut with a Victim of the Week being murdered. Turns out the two events are related, so this also serves as foreshadowing. |

Misfits: Used in episode 1 of the sci-fi series to create a juxtaposition between a tense scene during which Kelly fights for her life against her Ax-Crazy zombie probation worker, and an entirely ridiculous scene in which Alisha performs oral sex on a bottle for her gawping male companions. Also used in episode 5: the opening scene features a montage of the gang's reactions to Sally's interview about their community service programme, which highlights their different personalities - Simon is shy and terrified, Alisha ignores Sally altogether and starts texting, Kelly complains loudly, Curtis looks bored and aggravated, and Nathan says something sarcastic then breaks randomly into song. Used again in the first episode of the second series, when the team are shown going about their business before another day at community service begins: Alisha and Curtis gently tease one another; Kelly mourns Nathan's death; Simon returns to his upstairs hideaway to mourn Sally's death - for good measure, he's got her body stored in a freezer in this same hideout. And all throughout this montage, a figure in a black jumpsuit, mask and hood is seen dashing across rooftops towards the community centre... |

Death Note Episode 30 of has a montage towards the beginning that highlights Kira's adverse effects on ordinary people — then we cut the sound early to Demegawa's "I am here to tell you that Kira is justice!" Even moreso when we see Sachiko collapse into tears after receiving Soichiro's ashes. There's also one very early, when Light starts scheduling people to die at a specific time. He gets happily on with his day while people die out of sight. |

The scene becomes even more powerful when Daemon tells Rhaenyra that sex should be pleasant for both woman and man. In the next shot, Alicent is the focus, doing her duty as a wife to the king, while Daemon talks about marriage being a duty, but that shouldn't stop anyone from fucking with whom they want and enjoying themselves. Unlike Alicent, for Rhaenyra, her first sexual experience is pleasant. | |

King: A Filmed Record... Montgomery to Memphis: This documentary film opens with a montage in which Martin Luther King, advocating for his own system of non-violence, is contrasted with a series of Angry Black Men advocating the more militant Black Power politics that came into vogue in the 1960s. One clip shows King reminding his audience that there are white people who also believe in civil rights, and some who died for it, like the two young white volunteers murdered in Mississippi, or Rev. James Reeb, beaten to death in Alabama. The film then cuts to H. Rap Brown telling an audience that "The time for talking is over, brothers. It's time for war," and saying that black people need to get guns. Cut to another clip of Martin Luther King saying that he will always advocate non-violence as a tactic. | |

Repo! The Genetic Opera has a great one during the song At The Opera Tonight. It cuts between the Repo Man suiting up and Blind Mag lamenting her future, while they sing similar lines in tandem. | |

Gravity Falls: In "Dipper Vs. Manliness", there's a montage showing on one hand Dipper training with the Manotaurs to become manly, and Mabel "training" Grunkle Stan to ask Lazy Susan out. At several points in the montage, both trainings get quite similar (like Mabel unsuccessfully shaving Stan's chest hair, followed by a Manotaur gluing hair to Dipper's barren chest). The music that plays might be appropriate for a Hard-Work Montage, except that halfway through it starts simply describing the events on screen without worrying about rhyming until the end. | |
