"The Lovely Bones"

Another screencap for the film. I just discovered that while viewing clips on Quicktime, you can copy and paste any images from the clip. This here is my first screencap using this technique. The image is a little blurry, but eh, it works.

This is from a new clip for the film, a continuation of the scene when the detective questions Harvey. This image here is of Tucci, looking through one of his dollhouse windows. The coolest thing about this scene is the way Jackson chose to shoot it. The detective is checking out Tucci's dollhouses, and everytime he peaks in a window, Tucci is there looking at him. It's such a perfect metaphor for the film, which says that Tucci is always one step ahead of the detective's investigation, while being sly and cunning. I love Lesnie's lighting in this shot as well as it conveys a very eery presence of Tucci.

On a side note, at the beginning of the clip, I love the shot of the detective and Tucci standing, and then it focuses from them onto the bracelet. That is such an amazing shot and captured perfectly.

On another side note, completely different from visuals, Tucci is going to be really good in this role. I was amazed by his reaction at the beginning of the clip when the detective asks if he doesn't mind if he can go over and look at the dollhouses. He replies by saying "No". I love how he delivers "No"; it's like a screwed, if-I-don't-let-you-go-over-it'll-be-awkward reaction. Plus have you ever been in a situation where your mind is going against something, but then you give in to that something, even before your mind can understand your decision? That's like his reaction here; he's probably going against letting the detective near the bracelet, but then he has to give in.

Here's a link to the new clip; it's clip 2:
