I've got to apologize for posting a hastily-written thread-starter on movies that use visuals to advance a story.
I probably should have explained it better and said "It's not part of most current filmmaking ..."
I'm a big fan of old-school films such as the ones you all mentioned -- especially Hitchcock. But I'm of the opinion none of those scripts would get greenlit today with all that dialogue.
What I'm really looking for are scenes from recent movies (say, past 10 years) where you thought a scene worked really well and there was little if any dialogue.
Thanks, smooches to all!
