the story. So overall the pace of the film is
very fast at the beginning and end but quite
slow in between.

TV) looks calm hinting that he is the one
organizing the killing.

placed on a tripod, which operates as a stationary axis point
as the camera is turned, often to follow a moving object
which is kept in the middle of the frame.
• It is used mostly in the film when characters are speaking and
the camera is moving from one to another.

• A movement which scans a scene vertically, otherwise similar
to a pan. They used this type of movement when they showed
some of the deaths to show what is happening to them.
