In the opening sequence there is a very specific font used. Not
only the font however the lines on letters are extended. This might be used to
imply that the film has an inside meaning and also may be used that the
deceptions that he continues to get by Tom Hanks will never end. The title
sequence shows Leonardo Dicaprio to be involved in all kinds of professions
such as being a doctor or a pilot. The stereo typical appearance of a police
man is portrayed through Tom Hanks and it is reinforced when he is chasing Leonardo
Dicaprio.
The crime genre is portrayed through the font as he might always
be hiding behind the lines that are shown through the lettering. The crime
genre is also shown through the car chase and the fact that he is always being
chased throughout the title sequence. Moreover he knows he has to be hiding. The
actors enjoyment from avoiding tom hanks is shown by the amount of times he
does it and the number of disguises he undertakes.
The music that is used in the Title sequence is a jazz style music and has a lot of saxophone in it. The music is used to show the hiding and the trickery of Leonardo Dicaprio. The music increases in pace everytime Tom Hanks gets close. The fact that the actors are shown before the name of the film represent that the audience will be drawn to the actors not the name of the film.
