Opening sequence of Sleepy Hollow

Sleepy Hollow

This film was also directed by Tim Burton. The curse of the headless horseman is the legacy of the town of Sleepy Hollow. After the head of a horseman is stolen, the horseman returns from hell to take the head of the people of Sleepy Hollow until its own is returned.

At the opening of the film, smoke appears from the bottom as tittles apear and fade in and out with all the different people involved with making the film such as: ditrubritor/production/director and cast. then is cut to a scene where we see melted wax hit the envolope which at first could be seen as blood because of the colour. Then cuts to a couple holding hands and have a close up of a letter, and we then see the camera moving as though it is reading it. Bird eye view of somone writing a letter and dipping in a pot for ink.

I believe that this is linked to our idea, as this is also about murder, but not just one type of person.
