Film Opening Sequence

I like this opening sequence because it is quite simple. The majority of the images are almost silhouetted against an orange background. There are multiple images on the screen at one time, however they are generally just close ups or different shots of the same picture. occasionally it does a close up, such as the gun spinning around the characters finger to emphasize it. It shows all the main characters in the film, and by the way they are dressed - it does several close ups on clothing such as the boots with the spiky heel bit, and the coats - all things associated with, and linking the characters to cowboys, and suggests the film is probably set in that time. This is obviously enforced by the title "Wild Wild West". The music is quite classical, but quite fast paced at times, especially when Will Smith (the main character) is on the screen. This suggests he is going to be the good guy, as the music is quite cheerful compared to the slower heavier music when someone else comes on screen, suggesting a bad guy, or 'villain'.
