There are several elements of 'In Bruges' opening credits that I like and would like to incorporate in my film opening. Firstly, all shots are dark and shadowed in the night time, even when there's a shot in the daytime, there is still a greyish tinge to the colouring and no enhanced lighting, giving it an overall glum look to it. Secondly, the font, the colour of it and how it softly enters and exits throughout the sequence, again adding to the slow, moody, glum atmosphere. Further adding to this, the music I particularly like, having just a piano playing makes it simple yet explains a lot about how the opening credits are setting a fairly miserable view on what the film will be. Finally, my favourite part, where everything is fairly down and melancholy, when Colin Farrell starts speaking, he adds a lot of humour to it, even though we find out that he's a murderer, and in general a fairly grumpy irish git, he is still funny. I enjoy juxtaposition where a sad mood is completely spun around and made humorous.
