Description

Keyhole shot with fuzzy object in view; focus changes to blur keyhole edges and reveal Mr Williamson as the object. The Countess give him a rabbit punch. Commentary quotes writer who believes that heroines should be loveable and beautiful. Peeping Tom. A Picture for the Rogues’ Gallery (1902): a woman struggles to avoid having her photograph taken in a police station and contorts her face as camera moves into close shot. Caption: "Eye into object: A violent intimacy." Mock intertitle: "You are going straight back to Mr. Hepworth when you leave here?" Close up vignette of Countess; medium shot of Countess and Williamson talking; medium close-up of Williamson, closer shots of Countess’s ankles, her hand, incense burners beside him, clock as times passes, dissolves, etc. Close-up of Countess with title superimposed, vignette of her eyes. She hypnotises him. Seated Peeping Tom. Twins at the Theatre (c.1904). Tinted copy. Caption: "Between object and eye: The invisible you." The drama unfolds; the two women show their appreciation too loudly to the annoyance of the rest of the audience, and cry over the bald heads, one of which turns out to belong to a gendarme. Peeping Tom dozing.
