Analysis of Hollywood thriller

We watched the film Memento's opening sequence.This contained many elements of a thriller.

To begin, the music used created suspense,this was done by the music having a gentle crescendo and the tempo throughout the opening sequence became faster. By changing the music it altered the mood of the audience, as they watched it.

Other techniques used were the length of the takes and the shots. The music was fast when the shots were slower they were contrasting creating tension. This was done because the audience want to know as they were following the pace of the music without being able to move to the next shot.

Another convention used was the use of the blood, this rose questions which the audience wanted to know the answer to.

• Who was he?
• What had he done?
• Who's blood was it?
• How did she die?
• Who else was involved?
  

Another typical aspect of a thriller was the use of weapons in the opening sequence; the last shot was of a shell. Weapons put an element of fear into the film making the audience want to know more.
