can anyone REALLY see the camera guy in the vase?

to Me it looks like its just a bedpost of a sort...

I thought that I saw it. But it could be a bedpost. I don't know. It's not really clear enough to figure out. -Greenie 10:12, 2 November 2007 (CDT)

well, i've seen about 5 people say its a cameraman, so now i can't see it as anything else. he doesn't seem to move as far as i can tell though. --Milowent 10:13, 2 November 2007 (CDT)

I would say they (yes, two) are people, for three simple reasons:

1. Sarah's bed doesn't have bedposts
2. If both were bedposts, their placement would make no sense at all
3. If those are bedposts, they're gigantic

I, personally, assume it's the camera man and a director.

It is a sculpture. If it was the camera man, it would have arms up and also, it wouldn't be so far back because the scene is close to Sarah's face. Chelseyrl 13:14, 2 November 2007 (CDT)

• • Yea I was gonna say something about that. If that was the cameraman, he would be filming edge-on. (murdock_cb)

1. Sculptures don't stand in the middle of the room
2. Sculptures don't stand in the middle of bedrooms
3. Sculptures don't have such a wide stance
4. The "missing" arms make perfectly sense if it's the director with his arms folded in front of his chest, waiting for the take to finish
5. The "missing" arms make perfectly sense if it's the cameraman and he's filming with a handheld camera in front of his face, using the right arm in front of the body to hold it, and the left arm to steady it.
6. The "distance to the camera" argument is complete and utter bullshit, because going further away and zooming is not only possible, but might actually have been necessary to not cast a shadow on her face.
7. In addition, distance+zoom creates a different angle of view effect than closeness+no zoom, so the choice may also have been made for purely artistic reasons.

Please...if you wanna argue, use arguments that make sense.
