The song being played every time V's bombs are destroying a government building; The House of Parliament and The Old Bailey is called1812 Overture written by the Russian composer Tchaikovsky to commemorate Russia's defence of Moscow against Napoleon's advancing army in The Battle of Borodino which Russia ended up winning. The music intensifies the scene because it is victorious, foreshadowing, that the people of London are going to win against the government.

The Guy Fawkes mask is a stylised depiction of Guy Fawkes, the best- known member of the Gunpowder Plot, an attempt to blow up the House of Lords in London in 1605. The use of a mask on an effigy has long roots as part of Guy Fawkes Night celebrations and rebellion.

Close up of the statue's plaque to show the irony of the justice system in the totalitarian society in the late 2020’s. The plaque reads ‘Defend the children of the poor, and punish the wrongdoers’ this is ironic because of the government being the ‘wrongdoer’ to the ‘children’ (the people) V believes this building is unnecessary to be standing therefore it must be destroyed because of the pointless reason of the Old Bailey

Another important technique is colour, colour is shown in the film with people such as V, he wears a lot of black or grey. Because V sneaks around in the night it is also shown in his dark costume and his main colours are red and black, the black symbolizes the night and that he sneaks around and wants to be heard but the red also shows that he is violent and explosive, it shows fire and thats what haunts his past. V’s costume creates a positive expression and shows him as sneaky and violent but also as a “good guy” rather than a terrorist.
