i could not find this video on youtube and therefore i couldent embed or tubechop it, so a link is the best i can provide for the time being. i have uploaded this link because it is what i consider one of the best scenes of all time. the dramtic irony in the scene of the charecter not knowing why london is abbandoned and reading bits of torn up newspaper and being confused about the nature of the situation. i also think the music in the scene goes very well in an eerie sense. with mise en scene i like the camera angles that suggest someone is watching him e.g. from high up places.

I like this opening myself having watched it a few times and it is possible it may appear in our project when we come to filming, however something like this would be hard to create and was done by extreme professionals of filming and editing, therefore we need to continue to search for other openings to base our own on. a film opening i like is "snatch", directed by Guy Richie.

i like this opening because of how the shots switch smoothly to one an other in different places with different characters and introducing them one by one. this is a good way to start the film because of the cultural codes of the audience (mostly English or American viewers, familiar with types of theft) which will suggest due to the studying of the diamond and the disguises they are wearing they are thieves and gamblers because of the poker game. we therefore know the basis of the film withing one minute and 20 seconds, which is the general idea of a film opening: to introduce the film quickly and efficiently, and to deploy action codes and possibly enigma codes. another part of this opening that i like is the way in which that at the end of the title sequence the shot returns to the diamond from the start of the sequence.
