Opening Title Sequence (Strangers On A Train)

'Strangers On A Train' opening title sequence is definitely inspired by Saul Bass. He is a huge influence in this work. The men, the window shutters, the ciggarettes. Lines form objects a lot in this title sequence which refers a lot to Bass' work. The title and the names are shown like the ones in 'The Man With The Golden Arm'. They come into the shot from different positions, gliding in, with text in between the lines. This title sequence also looks very similar to Danny Youts 'Kiss Kiss Bang Bang'
