Top 10 Timepieces In Cinema
Follow @DistractedFilm
Timepieces in cinema, like offices, are prisons. Mental prisons rather than physical, the mental prison as a deadline . They bind and squeeze the protagonist’s soul. They are reminders of his mortality, and they are a source of tension against which filmmakers measure the character’s well being. When a timepiece shows up in a picture, it’s rarely a good sign.
Once again, many excellent titles had to be left off , including The Awful Truth, Laura and Glengarry Glen Ross (again).
In no particular order.
