David Lean went the extra mile. Milos Foreman comes to mind. Terry Gillum tries hard. Hitchcock was trained as an engineer. So was Eisenstein. It's interesting that both of these guys drew the scene (framed it in story board) on paper THEMSELVES and had a firm idea of just exactly what they wanted, where the camera should be and it was always there for a reason. Hitchcock seldom ever used any other lens except a 50mm or 2 inch because it offers the same magnification as the human eye. He also many times shot in continuity leaving little doubt to the editor what was gong to come next. The reel of trims on REAR WINDOW was rumored to be very small. GRH
