The opening sequence starts with a soundtrack. It consists of instruments only and a repetitive drumbeat. The music is very tense and begins to sound more dramatic, faster and more repetitive as the characters appear on screen which connotes that the main drama and events of the film will unfold around them.
The sound denoted is dialogue. The police officer says "C'mon sleepyhead, time to go home." She says this as she unlocks the prison door, which gives a sense of freedom and connotes he has previously committed a criminal offence, because he is being released from prison. This demonstrates to us that one of the themes may be crime, which is typical of a BSR film.
The sound denoted is dialogue. The police officer says "Thats a good start, your not out yet are you?" The tone at which this is said at is extremely patronising and sarcastic suggesting that the officer may not be fond criminals and is looking down on this one. Also it demonstrates a sense of inequality, the officer is allowed to be quite rude and in this situation is taking advantage of the fact he has more authority.
The sound denoted is dialogue. The man says "what the fuck !" when he hears a strange rattling noise at the back of his car. The use of foul language may show that he is of a low background, most likely working class.
The sound denoted is dialogue. "Man..., get outta my car man." His tone and choice of words may show he is of a urban background and he addresses the child with a lot of attitude. His slang and use of the word "man" show he is probably not from a rich area.
