V for vendetta

The opening scene is very effective, it starts with the sound of a news reporter on the television who is describing the current events around the world and showing the audience how things have changed, but the audience quickly realises that things are very different as the reporter starts becoming more extremist and racist, this is very shocking for the audience as we are not at all used to reporters,resposible and trusted people, being so inappropriate. The scene contiues on and introduces two charicters and immediatly starts showing contrast between these significant two characters, as they both appear to watch the same show while getting ready to go outside, this would make it look like they might be meeting somewhere but the difference in clothes suggests one could be going to some kind of party while the other looks like he might be preparing for a fight. the camera is in a first person view of the main protagonist putting on his mask and looking at a mirror this would add mystery to man and make the audience wonder why he wears it and what is underneath, it also portrays him as guy Fawkes which would make the audience believe he is some kind of revolutionary. As the TV anchor says the word Judgement there is a quick cut away to V putting swords on, this could be suggesting that the TV anchor has something he is going to be judged on it could also suggest however that V is Judgement for all people who have done something wrong.
