Trailer starts with production titles before then boxing shots are
shown, showing what this film will be predominantly about and enticing sport
audiences immediately. Bloody shots and punches are shown in medium shots demonstrating
more of the sport side of the film and making the opening 30 seconds
interesting. This is contrasted by grand surroundings and fancy dinners as the
main characters daughter is shown – another character crucial to the film.
After a pivotal scene in the trailer of the wife being shot there is several
high angle shots of the main character to show how he is down and defeated by
this loss, the trailer then changes pace as he attempts a change of personality
after he loses his daughter again. There are finally some more boxing shots to
reinforce the idea that this is a sport film – helps to entice the male
audiences. The trailer ends with cast titles intercut with establishing shots
of New York and boxing ring with the film title appearing as the last thing.
The trailer opens with more happy music as boxing _his passion is
shown) and he succeeds in fighting, family shots of his wife and children are
overlapped with dialogue of wife. The music changes to slightly slower, sadder
song – more meaningful as he pays tribute to his wife, foreshadowing that
something and may happen to her. The trailer takes a dramatic turn as a fight
breaks out and guns shots are heard, a piercing ringing sound and crying can be
heard as he mourns his wife, the music then turns sadder as he also loses his daughter.
The final montage is fast paced with high tempo music building as he tries to
get his daughter back, things seem bad, the music kicks in more high tempo as
there is also dramatic pulses before the music fades out as the title is shown.
