Film Review by Kam Williams Headline: Carolina Provides
Scenic Rural Backdrop
for Female Empowerment Flick Set during Civil Rights Era Lily Owens (Dakota Fanning) has been troubled since the age of 4 when she accidentally
shot her mother (Hilarie Burton) to death.
In fact, my original idea
for this installment of
Scenic Routes was to discuss my favorite
shot of all time, which is the moment in Chungking Express when smitten counter-girl Faye Wong watches Tony Leung drink a cup of coffee,
shot in a way that makes the two of them seem to be moving at a tiny fraction of the world's actual speed.
