Analysis of Inside Man introduction


The music is extremely misleading, making the audience think they may be watching a Bollywood movie. However, the scenery reminds them that they are in New York, still, the music and the setting leave the audience unnerved by their distinct cultural differences. The lack of any facial features shown of the people in the van prevents the audience from making any empathic connections with them, they are constantly kept ambiguous.
The bank scene is at first idyllic, a disruption first highlighted as the robbers are dressed in white and everyone else is wearing other darker coloured clothes. This serves to differeniate them from the other people. Also, the colour denotes and absence of emotion, (as many colours are identified with certain emotions) the white shows their calmness over the many colours (or emotions) of the people in the bank.
