GOODFELLAS
At the beginning of goodfellas, it starts with the wipe title sequence with the sound of a car noise over the top, this is then continued by and related to the car shot of Jimmy, Henry and Tommy. I think this editing works well of the sound which then is synchronous with the car shot. The film starts in present day then travels back to when Henry gets older and the story develops to how he got in this situation in the first place. I like the idea of this and for future purposes I would also use this effect in my own work. I like the idea of knowing what happens and then finding out how a person got there is the first place, I feel It grips the audience wanting to know more, so therefore they carry on watching. I also like the fact Henry (Ray Liotta) talks over his life in the present whilst showing the past, this makes is easy to understand for the audience and you can relate to how the character feels first hand. I like the idea of character talking through there life because it adds sincerity through their voice. I think the Goodfellas is a good opening and I would like to take features from this in further projects.
