Once Upon A Time In America

Directed by: Sergio Leone
Released: 1st of June 1984

Genre (according to IMDB): Crime, Drama
Running time: 229 Minutes
Average IMDB-rating: 8.4/10

As the credits appear on the screen we start to hear distant noises. First; sounds of a busy street and "God Bless America", before we can hear high-healed footsteps. The use of "God Bless America immediately suggests that the film could take place in USA. A common feature not used just in the thriller genre, but also in other types of films as it is an easy way to give the viewer the early information about the location.

  1. Andreas a few lines on a film is not acceptable at A Level. Andreas you informed me you would complete your research during the Christmas break. Unless you enter your research onto your blog you will fail this aspect of your coursework. You must speak to me about the difficulties you're having with this.
