Credit Sequences
" The Breakfast Club" (1985)
The opening credits of "The Breakfast Club" are
iconic. They start with a quote from David Bowie's song "Changes,"
which sets the tone for the film's journey of teenage identity and
transformation. The sequence then transitions to shots of the high school and
the students arriving for detention, accompanied by the song "Don't You Forget About Me" by Simple Minds. This combination of visuals and music
immediately pulls the audience in the world of the characters and their
struggles.
"Juno" (2007)
The opening credits of "Juno" are animated and
feature the protagonist, Juno, walking through her town. The animation style is
quirky and unique, much like Juno herself. The song "All I Want Is
You" by Barry Louis Polisar plays in the background, setting a playful yet reflective tone for the film. This sequence effectively shows the
audience to Juno's personality and the film's offbeat style.
"Boyhood" (2014)-
The opening credits of "Boyhood" are simple yet deep. The film opens with a shot of the sky, then by the song
"Yellow" by Coldplay. This calm beginning sets the film's exploration of the passage of time and the journey
from childhood to adulthood. The simplicity of the credits show the film's
focus on everyday moments and the good times within it.
