The film begins with background music fitting of a spaghetti western. This shows the lead actor who accompanies the music to be the type of man common in these sort of films, a disgruntled, loner who happens to be a hero. This music introduces us to his character. Following this Clive Owen begins to eat a carrot with loud crunching sounds of the carrot, this seems to add a comic feel to the piece and as it is the opening it is informing them that this film does not take itself too seriously. Following this a screaming woman walks past holding her pregnant body. Aside from this sound there is no sound at all, there is no diagetic or non diagetic sounds as even the background music has died out. This gives the viewer as sense that there is absolutely no one around, no police, civilians or any signs of normality. NOT FINISHED YET
