Vindictive Ground (marking)

I would give this sequence around a 53/60, due to a variety of reasons. It absolutely nails the mise en scene and gives a truly immersive experience and left me wanting more. Firstly, the acting is superp and makes it actually believable which only adds to the immesersion. The lightning is also brilliant, especially in the flashbacks as it reflects the the aspects of the situation. Dark, almost black and white, how something of that nature should be lit. The costumes are also phenominal as they reflect the times they live in, the modern and the past. It adds to the believability of the production. Regarding the shots, there were some amasing ones such as some bird's eyes shots in the beginning which must have been extremely difficult to pull off and gives an good viewing of the setting. The editing is also very good, with brilliant transitions between the present and the flashback. The only bad thing about it were the props, with a modern butter knife being used in the pasted it was an anachronism. There was also no background sound, which definitely increased the quality of all the dialogue. Overall, this was an exceptionally good opening scene and definitely deserved an A grade.
