From: Jackson, Tony [[email protected]] Hey everybody, I have a question for the list's collective knowledge of films. What films carry examples of conspicuous shots of mirrors? By conspicuous I just mean more than a passing glance. So for instant the infinite mirrors at the end of Citizen Kane, the funhouse mirrors at the end of Lady from Shanghai or the doubled couples in Vertigo, or any number of fancy shots in The Black Swan. Also useful would be movies in which mirrors play some key causative or explanatory role, as with the cracked medicine cabinet mirror in Memento. Thanks for whatever suggestions you can offer. tony jackson Tony E.
