question about a scene (phone call from the pd)


The cop is on the phone with Kostner and tells him they got a match on something - in that scene they briefly show two cops putting some white powder into a zip lock. What the heck was that scene about???

It was just a shot establishing that we are in a crime lab. But yeah, it was very off starting a scene with that shot...

Yeah, I didn't mind it

But I noticed this film had lots of interesting cuts, different ones.
e.g. Using the camera to pan, into a solid black shadow to setup the next scene

More common in older films and all that, even though this was done in 93
