Expanded. For dummies

Point of comparison is level of ambiguity. All eliminated by the two Welles shots. By getting RID of space and ENHANCING height of surroundings, he has now LITERALIZED what he is trying to convey. Griffith, the known realist, has more to share as he invites us to interpret the state of this individual. He often frames his subjects like this when he wants to cleverly examine them. Not too far away where they are hidden and detached and not too close for comfort. This framing is not Classical Hollywood and it's not really anybody else. It's a subject full-frame CENTERED and sideways with interacted coordinate NOT SEEN. This isn't interrogrative like a Dreyer or a Tarkovsky. This is the God-view. Study.
