Researching for my main task

i chose to study the first 2 minuits of the film casino which is set in the early eighties in america

It begins with a bank screne with credits fading in and out slowly in the middle of the screen, and the sound of trafic is heard in the background. there is then a wide shot of a man walking out of what looks like a hotel or an up scale shopwho is wearing a pink and white suite and a voice is heard which we immidiatley link to the mans thoughts the camera follows the man as he walks across a street and gets into what looks like a classic old american cadilac. He gets in the car, turns on the engine and the car explodes, when the car explodes the fire from the explosion covers the whole screen and the screen remains covered in fire as dramatic operatic music starts and black shapes of bodies float across the screen as credits fade in and out slowly in the middle of the screen. The operatic music then becomes calmer and the bodies stop floating across the screne and the fire slowley merges in to brightly coulered neon lights which keep changing coulers and shapes (credits still running)
