The Fighter

The beginning to the film 'The Fighter' is the titles of the company 'paramount pictures, it then fades to the opening of the company 'relativity media' which has non-diegetic sound of whistling. The screen goes black and you hear the voice of an American man speaking and on the screen the words 'Lowell Massachusetts-1993' fade in. Theres then a cut to a man sat on a sofa, this is the same man who has been speaking, and from watching the trailers i understand this to be Christian Bale. There is then a cut to a video of a teenage boy boxing in a garden, and the shot then cuts back to Christian Bale on the sofa and Mark Wahlberg sits next to him and theres lots of cuts between the sofa scene and the garden scene, and then goes to an actual boxing match where Christian Bale's character is fighting, this is the end of this clip. It is different to the others i have analysed, as no action happens apart from the boxing match.
