Jewellers, opening scene


I love the opening scene at the jewellers where the jeweller describes the three rings, his descriptions are also of the three women about to land in Max's life, from the dependable to the dazzling. Next time you watch the film it's a nice touch and nice bit of story signposting.

Yes, you're right. Upon second viewing I noticed it was a foreshadowing of the three ladies in Max's life. We don't get to know much about the one he is engaged to, though.
