Sidney Lumet on the "lens plot" he used to increase the tension in 12 Angry Men. So cool.Sidney Lumet on the "lens plot" he used to increase the tension in 12 Angry Men. So cool.

...a "lens plot" occurred to me. As the picture unfolded, I wanted the room to seem smaller and smaller. That meant that I would slowly shift to longer lenses as the picture continued. ... In addition, I shot the first third of the movie above eye level, and then, by lowering the camera, shot the second third at eye level, and the last third from below eye level. In that way, toward the end, the ceiling began to appear. Not only were the walls closing in, the ceiling was as well. The sense of increasing claustrophobia did a lot to raise the tension of the last part of the movie.

A man sees the "Treachery of Images" by Magritte. The painting which depicts a pipe with the caption "ceci n'est pas une pipe." In english, "this is not a pipe." The man takes down the painting, folds it up into a pipe and starts smoking out of it.
