Thoughts.

We are introduced with a calm soundtrack complementing the still shots and the extremely black and white close up shots of Al Pacino and Johnny Depp's thoughtful faces. We are straight away introduced into the scene (New York) and with what looks to be a spy taking photos, introducing us to Al Pacino's profession which is some sort of gangster. We are displayed with snap shots showing the companionship between Al Pacino and what seem like his men. The violins deepen for a more darker feel, and we see corruption and delusion between the gang. The dissolving high contrast shots of colour, mixed with the black and white, give an emotional warped feel, displaying some taste of film noir.
