I think that these two screenshots are great at showing the crime thriller genre because each of the characters faces are done so it looks like they are criminals. Both these screenshots do this because the hair is done to give it a greasy sight to it, as if to show that the characters know that they are criminals and they do it intentionally. This shows the narrative because with the hair and makeup the characters are clearly defined as criminals so it is obvious that they are going to do something bad. This being said, all the characters are have very different hairstyles, with some having facial hair and some having stubble. This shows that they all have their separate characters even when they are together. I think that the hair would work in our opening sequence because it clearly shows the characters which is what we want in our opening.
The hair and makeup in the film reservoir dogs is typical of that of what you'd expect from a crime thriller film. They have make up that makes them look like they spend a lot of time outside due to their criminal activities. Their hair is done in mainly a gelled back style that makes them look professional and intimidating in what they do. I think that that we can use the makeup in our opening sequence for the hacker to make him look pale to show he doesn't leave the house that much.
In no country for old men the hair and make up looks very average for the context of the film. Most notably (in relation to our narrative for the opening sequence to our film) is the hitman. He looks very normal. His hair is straight and long, possibly in an attempt to fit in. His make up makes him look like he has been outside for a long time (because of his job as a hitman). I think that this fits in very well with our opening sequence because of the fact that the hitman is so normal looking with dark clothes that makes him look very subtle, which is something we'd also like to get across.
