The information in the opening sequence is conveyed mainly through a characters monologue. You know that he became sheriff at 25, there is also a killer who had killed a 14 year old girl. Images in the background also set the scene in this opening sequence which is somewhere in the United states.
Main secrets which are in this opening sequence are: Why did this man kill this girl, what does the sheriff do. These may unfold why this killing happened and why the title suggest that there is no country for old men.
Through sound they was the diegetic monologue of the main character explaining some of the story and how he became a sheriff (Protagonist possibly. The atmosphere made it seem that it was an alright place to be in as he did not talk about the crime to much but it seemed a calm opening to a film.
Mise en scene helped set the scene by the arid landscapes in the background setting the film in a more sandy desert area of the USA and also the sheriffs car was of typical nature by having the lights and the paint work of what would be expected for a police in this area. Also uniform where you can see the sheriff which shows authority o he may be the main character and also the dominance in his body language as he is taking a citizen into the car.
Throughout the opening sequence the editing was very basic by using ordinary cuts to set the location of where this production is set. There were no inappropriate editing which made it lose its feeling of a thriller.
Again cinematography was very basic in the sense that there was mainly establishing shots to set the scene and aslo the long shot as the two characters walk away and you think where exactly is this set and what has that man done to be taken away.
No graphics were used in this opening sequence.
