Brick is also another Thriller which has similar storyline including the same aged characters (teenagers). This screenshot shows the opening shot of the film; displayed is a young boy walking through an urban area. The character is wearing similar clothes to our actor.
This shot shows a similar one to one shown of Brick. The character Mat is shown to be walking through an urban location (like the one in Brick). By doing this we made our opening sequence fit the codes and conventions of the Thriller genre.
