The opening of Panic Room consists of calm, areal shots of New York city, contrasting with the creepy dramatic music. After a time, the music becomes more fast paced, but still dramatic, which against the unfitting footage of a normal day in New York, creates an unsettling sensation. It implies that everything is not quite as it seems.
The opening of Rear Window consists of light, jazzy, energetic music with footage of blinds opening. It is perculiarly unfitting for the thriller genre, and seems to lull the viewer into a false sense of security. Both openings use unfitting micro-elements, but to create different macro elements.
