All of the lettering is written in a handwritten style, to add the impression that it is appearing on an old letter. This also adds historical context to the sequence, as we sense from the style of font, and accompanying pictures that we have gone back in time. The images themselves portray various people who we feel are of significant power, due to their attire, and our recognition of what these clothes would have reflected at the present time. The sequence creates a mystical atmosphere, as we notice the inclusion of gun, anger and blood in various shots all at mid length to close ups, from varying angles. The use of the dirty letters, give out the impression that we are digging out something from the past, which goes hand in hand with the detective theme of the film.
