Props needed for our Thriller

· Blinds for the house scene when wife calls Rex up while he’s at the meeting, as slatted blinds are key thriller signifiers.

· Suits for the men to wear; mainly black, to connote feelings of mystery and to fit in with the night scene. Suits are also typical of the thriller genre.

· Cigarettes to be used as a thriller signifier. This is mainly for Rex during the panning shot of his feet stubbing out a cigarette. The fact that he smokes adds to the flaws of the protagonist.

· Guns (fake) to be used in the chase scene, to suggest danger, and how powerful these men really are.

· Fan for in the house scene, as this is very typical of thrillers.

· Wife to be wearing stylish clothes. Red to connote danger and passion
