Opening movie scenes have taught us so much. Be careful where you swim, burying a dead body can seem not so sinister, if accompanied by smooth narration and a classic crooner soundtrack and if you don't tip your servers before a bank heist, it may come back to haunt you. A great opening movie scene can tell us everything we need to know about what we are about to embark on as moviegoers. This week on Formidable Opponents, we look at the "tells," the action sequences, the dialogue and the excitement these opening minutes have provided us. Although we won't debate what "Like a Virgin" is about, we will debate what is the all-time Best Movie Opening Scene; plus, we'll wrap up with our reviews on some popular Canadian snacks. The perfect combination!
