 Analysis of opening sequence, Dead mans shoes.

Camera 

Did not see their faces, but there is emotional connection through the music melancholic, bit depressing?  

The imagery is very static which makes it seem old withered? Added the effect to look poor quality 

camera? Makes seem sad old memory. Dissolve shot shows / selling they are the kids in the shot. 

Compared to the childhood they seem sad ‘ lonely and the long shot shows the scale / size of their journey.

Camera swings on a corner to keep their faces covered much like that in the shining. 

Editing 

From the past to present almost as if lost / forgotten memories. Flicks from boring road with long winding 

as is the long held shot of them walking down a road showing how long the journey is. 

Family all around them all of a sudden showing the memories are happier than actual life?

Two kids sat together having lots of fun. 

Sound 

Nostalgic feel to the two men, family with the crappy music. Happy / sad vibes from the music. Music is 

saying how they are on the run, the bag looks like army baffle bag, in the army? Slow building song builds

Pace along with the film. Music fades to a conclusion. 

Mis en send 

Journey is very long, walking all day different places, farm hills, roads and forests. Looks like an 

abandoned house after many years. Old house?
