The opening scene of lock stock is of two of the main characters trying to sell some stolen perfumes. The scene starts with Bacon (Jason Statham) speaking very quickly to a lot of people trying to sell the things he's stolen. This fast and quite rhythmic way that he is speaking straight away introduces you to the fast paced film that lock stock is. Furthermore because he speaks with a lot of rhyme and flow it could hint that as well as being fast the film will flow nicely and all the events with in the film will easily intertwine with each other. After a minute or so of Bacon talking, the police come and him and his partner in crime, Eddy, have to flee. This is followed by a very fast paced scene of Bacon and Eddy being chased by the police. This chase and the music that plays over the top once again emphasizes that this film could be very fast, this also focuses on two characters for the first time giving you an idea of who the main characters will be. The scene then goes into slow motion and there is some narration, this slows down the action and also helps to introduce one of the main characters; Bacon.
