Cue The Cameras: Abuse without Evidence in Leigh Whannell's The Invisible Man
10
By Maya Sabbaghian
Tropes of domestic abuse have existed long before even the vocabulary to define them by. One particular notion -- abuse without evidence -- is one of the most harrowing and, sadly, recurring themes that appear in literature, film, and media. Often, this theme can be so restated that it loses its impact on viewers. Leigh Whannell's 2020 horror film, The Invisible Man, offers a new approach to depicting this careworn trope through its camerawork, ultimately pushing viewers to understand the implications of not believing victims of abuse. plain 2020-11-30T11:28:22-08:00 33.6845673, -117.8265049Maya Sabbaghian
