Film Analysis 3

Black Hawk Down -http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r-a8PG83SLE

I really like the start to this film as it so different to other war films. The non diagetic music adds so much tension to the film it grips you in straight away but also reflects the culture when see a slow tracking shot of the african man. The start of the film uses shots of writing starting with 'based on a true event' which automatically grabs the viewers attention and also uses a blurry effect on the writing which gives of an un-stable worrying effect as somethings not paticularly right. I like how they have used fade in and fade out short clips of what is happening as it only shows a bit of the scene which makes you want to see more but also to show you how a lot of things are occuring during this time. The scenes aren't that clear where you see peoples faces straight away or what they're doing it's quite anonymous and mysterious to what has happened or what is going on you just have the context to tell you what is happening and the music to show that it's a sad time. Using only that to tell a story, I quite like.
