Beck- Room 302 analysis

Beck- Room 302

Opening scene shows block of apartments- look working class.
Non-diegetic music at the start of the scene, very easy and mysterious and infers that something bad may happen.  
Men trying to break into car, look working class due to the clothes they are wearing.  This could mean that although they don't have jobs and revert back to stealing and taking cars, they aim to be of a middle-class background due to the car looking very nice, and could belong to someone that is financially comfortable. 
Low key lighting in the scene highlights the fact that they do not want to be seen and want to be hidden so they are not caught out by anyone. The one breaking into the car also has his hood up which illustrates the point made above.
Man comes out dressed formally, in a suit.  Clearly shows the difference in class between him and the men trying to steal his car. 
Gun- shows who has the power in the scene as they threaten the owners dominance.
Non- diegetic music 
Acts of violence towards owner of the car as they take his stuff and steal his car.
Next shot cuts to a stationery shot as a woman comes out of the lift implying a cleaner.  The fact that we don't see her face straight away could imply that she doesn't have a very important role or job within the film.  
Colour red on the walls when she walks in to clean the room- could suggest danger and death. 
Colour of the sheets on the bed (white) could suggest that this woman was innocent and was a pure soul as she is surrounded by white.
Close up of dead woman- eyes open.  
Womans facial expression-shocked.
