I found this film really effective for its audience because the beginning of the film starts with her already in danger, she's already in the midst of something of which the audience knows nothing about.

We see that although this is a thriller based on politics and conspiracies there is also action included, such as a clip from my favourite scene when she has been falsely accused. For example this big close up shot makes her look vulnerable and afraid, allowing the audience to see that she is frightened and trying to escape as she is hiding behind a car.


In this next photo there is a close up of a gun, showing that it's tense and the audience are filled with anxiety. It also shows it is a thriller because of the close up of the gun stressing the urgency of the gun in current use and what it could do.

This bird's eye view shot shows her falling onto the truck. The lack of stability in the camera and the almost shutter effect allows it to look more dangerous and exaggerates the fall allowing the audience to feel anxious and hang onto 'the edge of their seat'.
