The document analyzes and compares the openings of three gangster films - Pulp Fiction, Scarface, and Se7en - through timelines created while watching each. The opening of Pulp Fiction focuses on camera movements and angles during a conversation scene. Scarface uses explanatory text to describe the situation for audiences. The most interesting to analyze was Se7en, which had lots of action, changing non-diegetic music, credits in different fonts, and interesting camera movements and closeness. Through creating these timelines, the document benefited from seeing different approaches to creating engaging film openings.
