In a Lonely place
The thriller opens with a tracking shot of a 1950s looking
women typing outside the front of the office from this we can clearly see she
is a secretary. The camera tracks into the office to show a desk lamp,
typewriter, shutters of a window and the shadow of a man with plumes of smoke
billowing out into the air. The man is writing a message on a piece of paper
saying, “I know where the abductor is” at this point a women storms in says to
the secretary I have a message for john carter. She bursts through the door
swinging dramatically as she go’s through quick shot reverse shot and eyeline
match as a conversation proceeds. The women elegantly turned out with a
European accent says “I know what you did to Freddie you will pay for this” and
before john carter has a chance to defend him self she whips out a gun and
shoots him. As she does this the secretary rushes in and says “Oh my god what
have you done you killed Johnny”, as the non diegetic voiceover kicks in “I was
in a lonely place when I met Diana I never knew the trouble she would cause I
never knew she would lead me to my impending doom and gloom”.
