Mise-en-scene
- view from a moving train - passes by buildings, cars, houses etc. - through scratched window showing the normality or the situation and making it relatable - production company and film title also shown
- inside of normal train - relatable for audience
- camera opposite man and woman sitting next to each other
- man wearing dark shirt/woman wearing oink scarf - showing differences between them
- man goes to bathroom - looking into scratched mirror - basic props that would be seen in everyday life
- woman standing outside train on bare platform
Sound
- constant sound of train moving - diegetic
- man's voice over - as if the man is speaking his thoughts while on the train - thinking about the woman next to him
- doubtful/dull tone in his voice - gives indications to his personality
Lighting
- Natural lighting from window - grey/dull because of weather
- little lighting on train - mostly form windows
- bathroom has darker lighting - contrast in settings from when the man is with the woman and when he is alone
Camera Shots
- point of view shot form opposite the woman and man - medium close up shot - makes the audience feel part of the film
- close up of woman when she is looking out the window - showing the focus of the man's thoughts on her - camera then pans across to look out of the window as well
- point of view shot from man's perspective looking into mirror in bathroom
- camera focuses on the lipstick mark left on the window by the woman - this leaves the audience with an enigma of what would've happened if the man had spoken to the woman
Narrative
- man sitting train with pretty woman next to him
- he wants to make a move and speak to her but is too scared
- he goes to bathroom and when he comes back she is gone and is now standing on platform outside waving to him
- then realises the lipstick mark left on the window by the woman showing mutual attraction - leaving the audience with the question of what would've happened between them?
