And before we leave the sequence of Scenes 140 through 142 behind us, I have to say, OK - now I've crossed from surprise into shock that no one has come up with what's missing in the mirror shots that I would think should be there. So, I'm going to repost this portion of reply #582:
Trust me, everyone is going to feel pretty foolish if I have to be the one to give the answer. Although, it struck me a couple of days ago that there could be a reason for why what's missing is missing. But IMO it would be an exceedingly odd reason - one I have never come across in any of the dozens of vampire films I've seen...
- as Barnabas delivers most of today's quote, which he does exactly as scripted on mostly on screen - however when it comes to Barnabas saying the portion "work to do", that's when the camera shot changes to what Julia sees in her mirror and we do indeed see that Barnabas -
- casts no reflection there and Julia's actions become clear... (And who can spot what's missing from the shot of the reflection? Today was honestly the first time I'd noticed... Apparently, just as with the daytime show, DC wasn't willing to pay for someone to keep track of continuity. Should we be shocked? Hardly!)
