The Textual Analysis within the opening of Se7en.
Within the pre-title the of the film "Se7en" 1995 it sets "The calm before the storm" (Shakespeare). The film starts within Detective William Somerset's flat. William Sometset is in the kitchen. Just from this we can get an idea of the type of man he is, the background of him and whether or not he is a socially adaptable person; all this information is gained from just the first ten seconds of the film. The clothes he is wearing suggests to the audience that he is in a high paid job as he is in a white shirt and trousers. There are also ornements of exotic animals that are present in the room, which suggests that he is a well travelled man. The old fashioned farmers green milk jug which is also visible in the kitchen gives the impression that Detective Somerset has an old fashioned way of doing things. Outside of the kitchen there is a chess board. A chess board usually represents someone who is very intellegent and it is also a strategic game to play, foreshadowing the film as it is a thriller which involves strategy.
