The cleaner



Cleaner 2007. Directed by Renny Harlin. Millenium films
The narrative of the film introduces the main characters job to the audience. Gives the audience the knowledge that he cleans up after there has been a death. He is cleaning up the house after a death.
Conventions displayed: Millenuim films logo, opening credits and titles over sequence. There is also a voice over of the cleaner, Tom(played by Samuel.L.Jackson). He is the only character introduced in the opening sequence.
Cinematography: the scene is muted. This creates atmosphere and questioning from the audience. The colours are very washed out, dull and dark giving the same impression of his job.
Contains many tracking shots of woman walking down the street and following her into appartment.
Many interesting camera movements and clever the way they show certain aspects of the film.
Contrapuntal sound is used so it matches the scene.
