Why it works
The title choice stays readable through shot 1's 71 frames before speech begins near 4.84 s. Long voiced shots use internal acting and prop motion, especially shot 13's 134.6% rightward element travel and shot 21's −135.3° recovery, while the three 2–3 frame zooms make changes of scale feel theatrical. The practical answer in shots 19–21 pays off the exception and physical collapse.
