Delicatessen

The opening scenes for Delicatessen suggests that the genre is horror and/or thriller.

The editing of the film is very slow and the pictures also fade very slowly into another, it creates an effect on the genre as most horror/thriller films are usually slow and when they get to the main parts they tend to speed up.
Iconography: 

  • the knifes scraping suggests to us danger and possibly death
  • the man hiding in the bin also suggests that he is in danger and is trying to get away 
  • the truck stopping and moving the bins also suggests danger as he is hiding in them and they are taking them away
The music/sound is slow and also lyrics or words spoken. 
The colour scheme consists of only a few colours and they are dull but also includes a bright yellow/orange light.
