In his treatment of the Leopold-Loeb case, Rope (1948), Sir Alfred Hitchcock used his famous “ten-minute takes” and segued from one to the other with a “natural wipe” generally focusing on the back of one of the character’s suit jackets. Perhaps as a homage to the master, this film’s (Compulsion) directer, Richard Fleischer, uses a “natural wipe” focusing on the front of Bradford Dillman’s suit to end a scene.
