Title Research: Romance: Married To The Mob

Married To The Mob

1. How many titles are displayed during the opening sequences to the film

  • Around Twenty-six titles were used in the opening sequence of this movie.
  • The titles that were mentioned were mostly the main actors, the producers, the sound supervisor, custom designers, the artist of the opening song, casting crew, and the miscellaneous directors.
2. What images are prioritized in the opening sequences of the film
  • The Opening sequence is a montage of train tracks and lights with miscellaneous people scattered around the area.
3. What connotations do the images carry

  • This gives a mysterious vibe and a fast paced feel to the movie, like something exciting is going to happen.
4. How is genre reinforced through symbolic and technical codes from the outset
  • The opening gives the audience a sort of dangerous feeling to whatever the character is going to experience. 
5. How does the film establish an enigma from the outset
  • With the opening being almost nothing but credits and fast pace music and visuals the audience is left wondering what going on and how this will tie into the movie.
6. What strategies are used to ensure the film appeals to its target audience
  • The music was used in the opening scene to maybe attract the audience to the movie with a little bit of action that the males might enjoy listening to and also seeing so they might not feel bored while watching a romance movie with their date. At this time movie dates were popular so trying to attract both the female and male audience might have been harder.
7. How has technology been used effectively?  You might want to consider camera angles, transitions and editing techniques.

  • The opening is shaky and loosely put together, this paired with the odd angles they used gives a sense of mystery to the movie. 
  • They put in an aerial shot of the tracks and center angel for higher objects making the lighting transphorm what they are shooting.
  • This leaves the audience with a sense of unease and understanding to the dangerous feeling this movie is trying to express.
