By skyforbes You hear directors speak sometimes about trying to film scenes where the visual language is strong enough that it still works if you mute it, the way a scene would work in a silent film. What is an example of a scene you love where the visual filmmaking is so clear that you can watch the scene without any dialogue and still feel everything perfectly?
This is how I felt about the reunion scene at the end of Homeward Bound after it was shared yesterday. The cuts back and forth between the boy and the empty hill, waiting to see if his dog crests that hill and comes home. You can understand the emotions perfectly in that whole scene without hearing a word.
