In the opening scene, the mise-en-scene estabshes the hotel room as the camera pans straight to the bed and a medium shot of Marion lying down, with Sam's torso and legs the side. In terms of costume, Marion is wearing a white bra and underskirt, which suggests her purity and innocence because of the colour however it also suggests that they have been having sex. A cut away shot is used to show the uneaten lunch, which looks like a take-away.
