Our original opening shot for Benjamin was extremely influenced by Hitchcock's film 'Strangers on a Train' as you can see from the screen grabs above. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vC3P5A_rwAQ Here is the scene from Hitchcock.
We ended up taking the shot out of the film as it seemed to give the impression that Benjamin was a powerful character, when he's not. Also the shot is around 15 seconds long and as the film felt unbalanced we went in and cut the first scene down, by doing so the film flows a lot better.
