Angles


Does there seem to be any correlation between the action that is occuring and the angle at which a character, particularly their face, is filmed? I'd noticed that often Suzanne is filmed from a face on perspective, often where another character in the frame is partially obscured. It seemed to happen too often to be just a matter of convenience.

Check out the extras on the Criterion edition. In it there is a documentary on the film called, "The Human Eye," which may be helpful for you.

where on this edition is the documentary? i've just finished watching it and it doesn't have any extras.

It's up on the Criterion website. So, it is probably the most recent edition. The doc came out in 1999.
