Watching: Beginnings

In our group we watched a BBC documentary about film openings. These are just a few quotes from it:

Ken Loach-"The most precious moment of the whole film"

Danny Boyle-"An obligation to announce as much ambition as possible"

John Schlesignger-"A good sharp shock"

J.J.Beneix-"Make them wait"-"don't give the instant gratification"

Le Conte-"Setting the tone"

Peter Bogdanovic-"get the audience on your wavelength"

David Fincher 'Se7en'-"title sequence is prefiguring the events in the film: titles become part of the story"
