3 title credit sequence film noir

(Lady In The Lake 1947)
      The first title credit sequence is from Lady In The Lake, 1947. It starts with the iconic Metro-Golden-Mayer production logo with Christmas music introducing the scene.  The title sequence starts off with an over-the-head shot, zooming into the pile of cards on the table. As the sequence continues we see a hand removing the cards one by one. The cards have text crediting the producers, actors, and everyone involved. As the hand pulls the last card it is revealed that there is a gun. The score also changes to a more dramatic instrumental as soon as the gun is shown. The title sequence ends shortly after the gun is introduced  


(The Untouchables 1987)

    

The second title sequence comes from The Untouchables, 1987. The title sequence is fairly basic, it begins with a text introducing paramount pictures. The whole title credit sequence is the fairly same, it shows the shadow of the title while presenting the credits. The title starts to move away, later disappearing from the screen.  Near the end of the title sequence, we get presented with an over-the-headshot showcasing a room filled with men looking over a man who lies on a bed and seems to be getting a pedicure.  

(The Third Man 1949)



        The third title credit sequence starts with a film censor from the British board. Then the title sequence introduces the production company "A London Film Production" with a visual of Big Ben next to the text. The title sequence moves on to introduce all the individuals who were involved in the making of the film, with a background of a guitar string getting played. While having the strings played the background music has a guitar instrumental playing.
