Tom Cruise as Austin Powers opening sequence

In this Lesson today we watched the Tom Cruise as Austin Powers opening sequence. As we watched this we figured out that it does have all of the things in a secret agent film in an almost a 4 minute video sequence: Combat and Conflict (violence), Speed and motion (Car Chases) and Suspense and jeopardy (Risk/Danger). The characters are portrayed as they should be as the women being the beautiful, glamorous one and the man being the hero by saving the woman (but in this case I think he woman could have saved herself) Then the man was shown with all the style as he parachutes down into his fast super car and zooming off to help the woman.

These both things are the main parts of an action film with jeopardy of the 'Damsel in Distress' and the Danger of the 'Hero'. During this opening sequence nearing the end the man usually has a little flirty time with the woman. But in this scenario it is Austin Powers so he goes straight in the and says "shall we shag now, or shall we shag later?" along with putting other sexual references during the clip.
