Guy Ritchie is a British film director known for films like Sherlock Holmes, Rock n Rolla, and Snatch. He became interested in filmmaking after seeing Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid as a child. The openings of his films have similar stylistic elements - the credits transition smoothly into one another with upbeat music, they are presented in a graphic novel-like style to set the tone, and they introduce the characters against backdrops relating to the films' London-based crime stories. These opening credit sequences help establish Ritchie's signature style and prepare viewers for the genres of the films to come.
