The titling of the film is very strange and breaks the normal way of doing titles for film the titling goes down when usually it goes up this confuses us as the audience makes us wonder why they have done that and another thing they have done which is confusing they have changed the name of the title from ' kiss me deadly' to 'deadly kiss me' this also makes us ask why they have done that. The font style is very simple and basic with a big white font this was common back in the fifties because movie and media had only been around for fifty years at this point.
The setting and location :
The location starts off in a dessert remote location this adds to the thriller effect that the director was trying to achieve the reason why they have done is because they wan to create a thriller effect and dessert and remote area are the most common way of getting that effect.
how are the characters introduce :
The way the woman is introduced is by her running away bare footed we can tell she is scared by her facial expression at 1st we want to know what she is running away from? this also shows her vulnerability to whatever is shes running away she is so desperate that she is even asking for lifts off strangers.
We firstly see the man skidding to avoid crashing in to the woman and the first thing he says to her is 'you almost wrecked my car' before even asking her if she was okay and to me this means he cares more about a material items than human life but then we find out later in the opening sequence is that he kinder than what he makes out to be because when the police are looking for the woman who he is in the car he saves her by lying to the police. This also to makes me think that he is curious and wants to know more about the woman and why she running away from the mental hospital and maybe he might not like the police and that also could be the reason why he lied to the police.
Costumes and props :
The woman is wearing a trench coat with nothing underneath which is a sort of mystery this is emphasis by when the man asks her if she is normally walks nothing but a trench coat she replies by saying a man took my clothes off me and made me wear the trench coat then the man replies by saying why and she says I couldn't tell you that.
Sound
At the beginning of the film we hear the lady panting to emphasis her being tiredness and her being scared we also hear drums and trumpets being played this is make the thriller effect that the director was trying to get at .
Genre
This is a thriller the reason why I know this is because it has all the makings of thriller with a lot mystery a lot of close ups which does give anything away.
