I think our thriller film is Mainstream, as it has a basic thriller feeling, and is very easy to follow. So therefore it will be shown in cinemas such as VUE and ODEON, but could also be shown in cinemas such as Cinema City as they show mainstream and specialist films as well as independent films. The film is Generic to mainstream films for example the train station that we use in our film can be seen in films such as Heat and Witness. A popular setting in mainstream thrillers, as the often start at Travel Terminals. The clock used throughout the film is very iconic. It brings a essence of involvement for the audience to the film as they are watching the clocks when they appear, constantly wondering how much time has passed, working out in there heads what order these events happen. Another generic feature involved within the film is the heartbeat. The heartbeat brings a constant to the film making the character seem nervous but also the audience feels the heart beat too. Finally the city bustle within the train station making the character of the girl feel isolated and the audience sees this also, another film that uses this in a thriller is Leon, where the camera from the establishing shot sweeps through the city with all the haste of the people in the city. This haste of the city and the sheer amount of people isolates the singular characters making them seem vulnerable.
