The document analyzes conventions in film title sequences. It examines the openings of three films - Citizen Kane, The Book of Eli, and Donnie Darko. While all three show the film title, production company, and director's name, they do not include the main cast. This breaks from the typical convention but maintains an air of mystery. In conclusion, film openings usually display the title, companies, and director but omit the starring actors, which seems strange as big names could widen audiences.
