Never heard of Parade or Marilyn (unless as in 'goodbye Norma Jean'), but
If a person on television held up a mirror facing a camera, could
someone at home see his reflection in it? -Colorado Springs, Colo.
This one hit home. It always irritates me when someone who is meant
to be looking at themselves in a mirror (very common in US 70's cop
shows, I seem to recall, think MacMIllan and Wife type of things,
e.g. a woman sitting at her dressing table brushing her hair...) is
actually staring at the reflection of the camera lens so we can see
what she is meant to see but cannot be seeing - it seems to insult
the intelligence of the audience...but then again, I guess by this
question, maybe not.
