Editing and Camera in Kill Bill

The use of extreme close ups on the eyes and the eye contact between the two women in the scene are very effective to build the tension for the audience encoding that something might happen between the two at any second.

Long shot durations as the climax is getting built in the scene where she moves lowly with the swords to show that her patients is her strength which connotes to the audience that she believes she is in control.


The over-head shot wear the blonde women is smaller from the POV from the camera showing that she is less able and has less power.
