Out of Frame: Somewhere
There are two shots in Sofia Coppola’s Somewhere that tell you pretty much all you need to know about its characters, and the way that she’s decided to tell their story. Each one is about two minutes long and contains no action, focusing on their subjects in silent, motionless repose; the primary difference is that in one, Coppola pushes the camera slowly in, and in the other, she pulls away.
