1. Thomas Sutcliffe is saying that films need to be interesting they need to be able to interest their audience and grab hold of their audiences attention for a very long time and make them want to watch the film without being distracted and making them want to watch more.

4. The critic Stanley Kauffmann describes the classic opening as being shot in New York city from the east and a close up of a building, then goes in the building through a window then passing the receptionist to a private office and there is the actor.

5. Kyle Coopers title sequence to the film seven is so effective because it outlines how the film is going to be straight away and waking up the audience showing that it feels like a movie. It becomes the first part of the movie.
6. Orson Welles wanted to presents his film a touch of evil without credits and a title music. He wanted to quickly introduce the audience into the film without giving them time to prepare themselves. However Universal Studios were more cautious and put in a credit and music
7. "a favourite trick of film noir" means putting the end at the beginning captivating the audience from the start leaving them to question their thoughts.
