http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=epxYm3OouQA

Mise En Scene is the aspects that is visual to the audience in the frame. In the opening sequence of Casino Royale the director sets it in two different scenes. The first in an office block and the second in a public toilet. This shows two sides to bond. the sequence starts in an office block in Prague, the colors of the scene are very dark and dull to be viewed by the audience. On the other hand the second scene is in a public toilet, the only color used is white this makes the dirt in the toilet stand out really noticeably. The office block is made of glass this gives the impression of openness and no escape. The public toilet is inclosed to show almost no escape for bond, he has to kill the guy because he's half way there now. Bonds body language in the office is very calm and collected, he gives off the impression of being secure and always in control. In the public toilet bonds seems to not be in control as he is struggling to connect the blows to his opponent.
