A few weeks ago I directed a new short film, STAKEOUT, starring Seth Gilliam (The Walking Dead, The Wire) and Sonja O’Hara (Doomsday) with a lot of help from friends, new and old, both talent wise and financially.

-a shot of the house. Mirroring our opening shots. Our characters finally finding some sort of happiness. Whether it was real or not. The God of the story no longer in control of them.

Which is why I find these shots so heartbreaking. The director reveals these shots for him are in Heaven.
They finally find each other after death by the water in the house they said they would go to. He reveals them exactly like this and then large in frame as they go inside the house and then-

With the exception of this shot. The movie reveals Robbie has died a little later and exactly when but when you revisit the movie. After he dies we get this shot. The first shot of him walking away.
He's not returning to Cecilia.

Another great idea and
I'll have to reconfirm but Robbie is almost always walking towards Cecilia after they have their realizations that they love each other. This is mirrored in the scenes of him in France. Cecilia asks him to come back to her so his goal is always to be walking back to her.

Because Robbie dies by the water in Dunkirk before he can be saved.

Robbie is shown here BY THE WATER but not underneath it. This is important because it's foreshadowing. And here's the REAL SPOILERS COMING GUYS

Kinda the overall message of this movie too in some way. Can you fix something so broken?

I love the reoccurring motif of WATER in the movie. Robbie and Cecilia's relationship revolves a lot around water. One of the first scenes where they are together she jumps into a fountain to retrieve a piece of a broken vase so (I assume) she can fix it.

I couldn't find the mirror shot of this on Shotdeck but I love that this shot and the mirror of Briony as a young girl can be cut together as if they were talking to each other because this movie is about Briony having a conversation and atoning for her past self.

and using the scale of the tiny objects as a way to show who is telling the story. So who is telling the story? -it’s fucking Briony 🤮
Introduced LARGE in frame typing away at a story. This story is told by her which is revealed at the end of the movie. Spoiler. I told you that would happen.

-Originally the director wanted to do shots of little puppets of the Tallis family inside of this doll house. They cut it for time but the idea behind it was to establish puppets and puppetmasters. Or as the director puts it later, "the god telling and controlling the story"
