The opening scene lasts minute 10 seconds this tells the audience that this will be a serious drama and the director being Shane Meadows we get this impression anyway, he is an auteur who influences his movies so much. Which is why he has got the title of an auteur.

| Mise En Scene used in the opening of A Room For Romeo Brass A medium long shot i used here for that reason - to show the surroundings |
As the films starts you get a mis en scene of a poor rural area which reflects on Shane Meadows again on his low budget films. Over the opening sequence we get music played over the picture which creates a more light hearted atmosphere. An audio bridge is also used in the opening sequence to link the difference in time.

Dead mans shoes is yet another film that did not make it into UK cinema but however, yet again got into USA cinema
Dead mans shoes appeared in several lists of best British films and won numerous awards which suggests it may have done well on DVD however obviously not so well in British cinema

| An example of the home footage |

| An Extreme longshot is used to give the audience a view of their surroundings and the setting the characters are in |
The opening begins with home footage from the past, we can tell this by the use of effects the editor has used to give it the old feel it has.
This then fades to reveal the characters to the age they are now at. The imagery used tells us that the film is set in the north of England as bleak shots are used. The two characters may not be the wealthiest of men. The use of Mis En Scene shows this through their clothing and maybe the camera quality adds to the effect of two less well off men.
A downbeat song is played over the screen play which subtly hints there may be a tragedy involved in this film.
several posts, as previously highlighted, have extraneous material - long character/cast lists, lists of box office instead of the final figure, etc
