the best part is the start

My friend Josh recently sent me a link to a site, fairly sure that I would instantly fall in love. OK, maybe not that last part, but he did know that I'd like it and he couldn't be more right. It's called Art of the Title and consists of the opening sequences of a variety of films.

For better or worse the film credits can be the best part of the movie (bad if you paid money and it's downhill from there : good if that's ok and you're content with innovative/beautiful/graphic images); Art of the Title has done a great job rounding up some of the most stunning. Obviously, as evidenced in previous posts and my other blog, I adore movies and sometimes enjoy reducing them to the their visual components. So this site of course makes me happy. Below are some of my favorites.
