The Dark Knight Opening Scene

This clip is the opening of the Dark Knight's film. This clip shows the professional robbery, but something is not going properly how the robbers wanted. We can see that robbers are wearing clown mask, which confirms the stereotype that robbers always wearing mask and they are good at their job (robbery). These robbers are people of Joker's band, because they are wearing clown masks. Mise-en-scene is that these robbers are wearing masks and they are wearing classic office suit. Another example of mise-en-scene is that the main antagonist "Joker" are in creepy make up and he has scars on his face.

The scene with the person who holds his mask, shows that he is an important person. Camera shows only the back of the antagonist, which means the viewer has the big wish to see his face.

Another scene shows that robbers are entering the bank and starting threatening to the workers of the bank and customers too. Camera moves quickly to show the action of the thugs.
