10 Things I Hate About You

Genre - Comedy, Drama, Romance.
10 Things I Hate About You is one of my favourite films, and the opening is interesting.
The whole thing is quite bright, they film the city as a background with writing over it. The writing is colourful and they use a font - like a teenagers scrawl - which makes it obvious that the film is going to be a film about teenagers.
In the opening scene, it shows a car with 4 girls in it, playing pop music. Then Julia Stiles pulls up next to them in her car, playing more of a rocky band quite loudly. From this point on you know that Julia Stiles' character 'Kat' is different from all the other girls.
The camera first goes over the city they live in, then it shows the school that they go to. The camera follows Kat behind her, to show both her and the things she is doing (e.g. ripping down a prom poster).
The music continues on from when Kat is in the car, showing that she is going to be one of the main characters in the film.
The opening to this film doesn't really reveal much about what's going to happen in the film, therefore making it intriguing.
