point of view shots. your viewpoint is over the shoulder of the listener. the camera watches the speaker talk. somehow we are to believe that we are there – in the conversation somehow. TV has made the POV nearly obsolete. Being there, really translates into watching a conversation on TV.
Less and less we see the filmic language of tracking shots or establishing shots – unless it’s in the opening scene and credit roll. Now we have multiple narrative tracks. Kubrick – like - elliptical structures of multiple narratives - what happened – from different perspective loop. yes, Tarrantino uses this a lot. maybe this gets us to the equilibrium between what really happened or what seemed to happen.
