THE LIST
Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon
Without saying a single word, we get to watch Shu Lien realize that Jen is a gifted martial artist, and possibly the thief.
2001: A Space Odyssey
It might seem like Hal was struggling and failing to follow the conversation, helplessly looking
back and forth, but by singling in on exactly what matters – their lips – we catch the real meaning.
Inglorious Basterds
While we certainly notice an abrupt shift, and understand immediately that the jig is up and Hellstrom is now a dangerous enemy – and this is probably all that Tarantino was going for – the “how” is better explained later in dialogue.
The Godfather
You have a handful of simple signifiers of film language combining to communicate the complex notion of “Michael deciding to murder two men” all without a single word of expository dialogue
127 Hours
After 5 agonizing days of being trapped under a boulder, Aron Ralston finally cuts through his arm. Our bodies are bizarrely hardwired to respond viscerally to different sounds
