Ryan's comments on this 'rites of passage' film opening demonstrate a sound grasp of film opening codes and conventions. His analysis reveals confident understanding of genre codes,as well as how film language shapes meaning for audiences (cross-cutting between playing rugby and piano, for instance; diegetic piano sound; high angle shot positioning the protagonist as dwarfed & vulnerable in the frame; framing of the individual along with the band, and so on). Excellent work.
