The difference between Film trailers and Film openings

Trailer
Trailers are short clips to entice people to come and see the film. these are normally two or so minuets long and you can get a good idea of what the film is about and what is going to happen in it. A film trailer doesn't run in chronological order as well. this means that the clips are all from different parts of the film, this is because they are showing you the best bits of the film to try to get you to go and see it. A great example of this is the Pirates of the Caribbean film On Stranger Tides. You can see the clips jumping around and not making much sense.

Film opening
Film openings are the beginning of a film. these again are the first two minuets that are used to help draw the audience to watch the film. You would see some titles at the beginning of the film as well. a great example of this is Forrest Gump. As you can see from the video below multiple titles appear including the production company names, the director and the name of the film. this is one great way to tell the difference between the two.
