1. What is told to the audience?
The audience is shown a women lying on the floor and then someone else shooting her. It misses out all the action as when you first see her, see is already cut up. At this point you know that the man who is called Bill is the antagonist and the audience believe that that the women is a innocent victim. There is talking between the two characters and right before Bill shoots her, she says 'It's your baby.' This tells the audience she isn't just an innocent victim and Bill killed her for revenge.
2. What is conventional?
- You get introduced to the main characters, even though you don't see the man and you don't realise that the women is also a main character.
- The music over the titles are strings and drums. This builds up tension.
- Only straight cuts are used apart from right at the end of the opening sequence to show it is ended.
- The titles are white writing on a black background.
3. What is unconventional?
- Over the titles, there is a voice over which then blends into the two characters talking.
- The action is in black and white. However this is used to show what happened in the past.
4. How has it inspired me?
I like the way it doesn't have a built up to the action or actually getting to see the fight, but it shows the after effect of it. Also, I like the way it has a connection between the two characters. In normal thriller, you see an antagonist killing an innocent victim, but in Kill Bill vol.2 it shows a connection between them.
