Openings. Three Colours Blue

The opening for Three Colours Blue was really dramatic and instantly caught the audiences attention. it started of with a little girl looking out the window of her family car. She looked really bored and from her facial expression it seemed as if she would rather be any where else. the scene continues without any dialogue showing the viewers the busy road at night. It seem as if they were returning from a family trip.  in this shot you can jus hear cars passing and can see the lights in the tunnels going pass as if you were in the car itself. the next shot shows that the family did stop then the shot quickly changes to a leaking pipe in the car. this gives of a sense of foreshadowing, letting the audience know that something devastating's going to happen. it also creates suspense as the next shot takes it away from the car and focuses on a boy waiting in a field. he looks in to the distance putting his hand out for a ride but gets rejected. this scene was quite and focused more on the boys face and the sounds from the ball in the cup game. the way the next scene come to be is when the boy finally gets the ball in the cup at the same exact time as the car crashes in the tree. you hear a loud crash then see the car smacked in to the tree. there's smoke coming out from he car and a beach ball bounces out from the car. the next scene shows the boy running towards the cars full speed and you can tell he's quite scared  as he doesn't know what to do . the shot shows a long shot, showing the whole scenery, with the crash and boy the centre of the screen. the next shot starts of with heavy breathing and crying. in this shot they have some speech and we find out that the little girl at the begging dies in the crash.
