The camera only moves four times, panning to the left when the state's goons come into the mortuary, panning left again when the caretaker finds the carnage they leave behind, zooming in ever so slightly when a whale swims through the sky and turning 90 degrees just before a cloudburst in a post office (that's always so annoying). All the other shots are static, with the actors often framed in between doorways, alleys, aisles, curtains and street furniture, which might get bloody irritating if one were to over analyze it.
