Oceans’ 11 was originally a rat pack film, based on corny jokes and swing music, the crime being of a much lower scale than in this modern remake. ...
The sequence is mainly for descriptive purposes, showing the audience the situation, introducing the main character and how he relates to other people. One important signifier is the fact that he is always playing with his wedding ring – this index sign keeps the audience wondering what part his ex-wife will have to play in all of this. ... Advanced signs like these keep the audience watching as it piques their interest. ... The audience can feel themselves draw towards him, invoking a sense of support from them. ... His plans are to do anything but keep his nose clean – yet the audience find him attractive as a hero because he is fighting against the stupidity of authority and preparing almost for a Robin Hood impression – stealing for justice rather than money. ... It gives the audience a clear sense of relationship and location. ... The audience is made aware of his ability to deceive without making him seem sly, ensuring he is also liked by them as they appreciate his talents and skills for being in charge. At the poker table there is an unspoken communication between Danny and Rusty, showing the strong partnership between them, and also preparing the audience for later in the film, where parts of narrative seem to be missing until they are explained.
