Piartes of the Caribbean- Curse of the Black Pearl (14th Sept)

Director: Gore Verbinski
Year: 2003
Genre: Action/Adventure/Comedy/Fantasy

Opening Scene:
  • many clues about bad luck coming: pirate song, woman being on board, fog.
  • opening scene sets the tone for the rest of the film.
  • with Elizabeth's singing, the lack of background noise and the camera angle slowly zooming in on her back this all creates a sense of tension.
  • this tension is obvious when the man taps her on the shoulder and she jumps with shock.
  • Lone umbrella, Will on the wreckage, builds up to the burning ship.
