Crime Trailer Analysis 2 - 'Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels'

The second trailer I have decided to look at is for Guy Ritchie's 'Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels'.

Typical crime elements in the trailer include:

• costume - balaclavas, smart suits
• props - weapons, stolen goods, cards, safes, money
• scenes of violence
• low key lighting
• rapid editing
• up-tempo, non-diegetic music
• settings - London (city), gambling house, boxing club, bars, warehouse
• typical character types
• tagline references genre
