Quentin Tarantino's 'Kill Bill 2' uses the same concept of a voice-over over a black shot. This draws focus on the diagetic sound rather than the mise en scene or action. It also means the voices have a lot of mystery behind them as we can not see who is talking or where they are. This is a convention of the genre as mystery and incognito disguises are used a lot in thriller films. Such as 'Leon' when we do not see all of Leons face but extreme close ups of the glass of milk, his dark glasses ect.
