This is a high-angle shot of Eve revealing bullet holes in the mattress of Noodles' bed. This type of high-angle shot of eve and the bed greatly implies her vulnerability, making her seem weak and powerless.
The high quality and fancy design of the furniture imply that Noodles is fairly wealthy or 'well off'.
The actual bullet holes in the mattress imply that perhaps there has already been a murder, and therefore sets the initial scene for the rest of the film.
The lighting on Eve is very dark, she does not stand out - Possibly implies that she does not know anything about these bullet holes or who has put them there (as if she is 'in the dark' about the whole situation).

The bullet holes are a sinister warning from the polic/intruders. The bed and the lamp are all connected to Eve, with the bed connoting Eve's sexuality; whilst the lamp connotes her femininity.
