Catch Me If You Can (2002)
Steven Spielberg's 'Catch Me If You Can' opening sequence presents the journey of an animated, cartoon-like male character to the audience. He continuously travels from each scenario to the next seamlessly, making appearances and then disappearing again, as if we are trying to catch him, as the film's title suggests. This clearly indicates to the viewers that the film they are watching will be about a chase, as the character is followed making his way through an airport terminal and attending high profile, swanky events, where you would associate a lot of money. I think that this style of opening sequence is very minimalistic and simple, and you can't really go wrong with it as the audiences' attention is instantly grabbed and from there on in, they are hooked on what is going to happen next.
