In the film ‘Drive’, Ryan Gosling is a driver. He can drive stunt cars and getaway cars, and he can also fix cars. Then one day, things don't go so well. Lots of violence happens. Not much of a talker, his acts of violence were literally breath-taking. Similarly to our character Jared Black also drives a car at night, in our opening sequence. He is also violent like the driver from ‘Drive’. He also doesn’t speak like our character, which creates mystery because our character only speaks a small amount.

In the film ‘Intruders’, ominous men approach the house. They enter the house and they enter her room and grab her –one of the men tells her they’re returning a secret to her, one she gave to them years ago. In relation to our film, an ‘intruder’ enters our actress’s house and harms her. However instead of returning a secret he grabs a suspicious object from the house, which he has been meaning to get. We don’t know what this object is, which adds suspense to the opening sequence. Our mise- en-scene of actors  is similar to the scene we looked at in ‘intruders’  because an actor as an FBI is used, just like ours and a women at home in casual clothing is also used in our opening sequence. Therefore our characters are similar to ones used in ‘intruders’ due to the way they act and what their role is in the film.

The last film we looked at was ‘Identity thief’. In the film a lady called Diana stole a guy called Sandy Pattersons identity and was living it up by spending all of the money he had on his credit card. This relates to our thriller as Jared Black in our thriller uses a fake FBI badge and hence uses a fake identity to get inside the womens house in order to get the suspicious object he was urging to get.
