Punch Drunk Love Opening Scene

Here the room is clearly isolated, away from everyone else, almost secret this then shows that the character is very mysterious. it has an office table situated right at the end of the room giving him a good view of all the walls in this isolated place. He has a load of papers on his table to show that he's a hard worker and is on the phone. its almost like he is an office worker but in a very deserted place. the room is plain with no colour creating a very moody atmosphere as it has no life and the actor himself is wearing dark blue to blend in the room. this could mean that the room and the man  are of one co-ordinance. its almost like the room was made for him and this could say many things about his character.

The scene starts as the character starts talking on the phone to a magazine advertising company. it seems that he is trying to correct the company's mistake by stating that they said ' in addition to ' but nothing then followed. normal people don't phone up the company to correct their mistakes this then shows us that the character must be somewhat of a perfectionist and this gives off the idea that the man may have compulsive disorder.

Here the man hears noises which the makes him stop his sentence on the  phone & take a break trying to be awfully quiet. This shows that he is not trying to be found out. its almost as if his place is suppose to be secret and he wants no trespassers and only him should be in their. he comes across a very mysterious because of this.

Here, the character walks from his table that is full of light to a dark place then finally revealing where his 'office' may be situated. by the looks of this place, his 'office' may be situated in the garage or even a warehouse. Having a 'office' in one of these places is peculiar to society as it is locked up yet he is smartly dressed etc. this makes the audience think that the character is weird as he comes across as mysterious now.

Here shows that the character is not hidden away from everyone because the place that he may be shows that there are many people that are familiar with that place. this is because we see cars parked outside his garage/warehouse. he may have his own individual unit where no one can trespass, however  the area is not a private as the beginning of the film.

its sunrise which shows that the character is awake at early times in the morning whiles most people are sleeping. & its the office that keeps him awake.
You can here the whistling of the wind and also the objects around making soo much noise in the midst

Here as the camera turns to look at the main road, we see normal cars passing by, however as the car gets closer to the character, it blows up, tumbling down the road in flames. It is almost like the character sensed something would happen and it did. or maybe the car was determined to crash like that.
