Visual Language - The POV

[Weston]

I love when the camera moves downward to indicate he's taking the binoculars away from his head. That half second bit of detail is part of what makes the Cohens so great.

I really dig the scene breakdowns...great stuff.

I updated the article with the actual script segment adapted by the Coen's. I think it brings a better insight to the breakdown.

Very nice analysis, I haven't seen "No Country" yet but I just picked it up from my local Blockbuster today and plan on watching it opver the weekend. Very well done. Also, thank you J.R., you have inspired me to write columns on the art of filmmaking on my newest blog porject. I didn't know what to do on it, but now I do. Thanks!
