This thrilling opening starts off with the harsh sound of a type writer followed by close-ups of various objects for example a match and wine glass. At the very start there is no sound except the typing to be heard, followed by a very dreary faint piano sound creating a very unsuspected atmosphere.
Mise en Scene
- The wooden themed living furniture and decor aloows the viewers to get an insight into how this person lives and what sort of life they live- It also seems like the perfect place for a thriller film to take place, for example murders are more likey to occur in old, dark wooden houses. We also see here that the weather outside seems glooming and dark, possiably showing that something unlikey may arrise.
- The dark clothing of the man also tie in well with the suspense in the film; if he were to be wearing happy and lively colours we would assume something exciting may happen.
Editing
- At the very start the audience are confronted with an extreme close-up of a type writer, giving a clear insight into what is being written. This is possiably used as a minor clue as to what may occur later on. At this stage there is no background sound, only the noise of typing, this adds to the thriller atmosphere.
