Wallander

The shots for the opening show a event which has just taken place the second shot shows the girl leaving the event with there costumes looking drag and almost like they have been up all night and had no sleep this could suggest to the audience that they have been partying and something has happened and they are leaving early in the morning or they are the last ones to leave. The girls walk past a car and shows a man in a car dead, the audience may think the girls have done this or they have been taken by this man and thye have escaped, this gives the impression to the audience that it is a thriller.

Also it suggests that it is a thriller and drills the audience in by showing to extreme close ups of the man in the car the first one being his face smashed onto the stearing wheel and the second being his finers covered in blood hanging over the dashboard, this makes the aduience feel uneasy and on edge as they would like to no why this has happerned and how he got there is there any resembalnce through the girls and him.

The setting gves the impression that its a out of the way place and someone would not normally come across of it. Also the Title of the film does not give much away as it does not claify anything that has happened in the opening of the film. This suggests that there is much more to come and may be flashbacks through the whole of the film to show how the man got there and are the two girls guilty or complety innncent.
