Zodiac

The opening title sequence of Zodiac uses a newspaper to introduce the audience to the characters and actors, it also fits in with how killers/psychopaths are stereotypically represented in films, using newspaper cuttings etc. This style of editing is similar tot silence of the lambs opening in how it flows cohesively into the next section

Silence Of The Lambs

The opening of Silence of the lambs features this fragmented editing style. It introduces the characters and the actors who portray them, but this use of editing fits the theme of insanity and the split personality of the protagonist.
