Dear list, I'm currently writing on the use of voice in relation to social / communicative 'intimacy', 'distance' etc. in television, and would like to explore some examples from film too. Can anyone come up with typical or classical examples of the use of (extreme) close-up shots of a preson screaming, and (extreme) long-shot shots of a person whispering? I would be grateful for any suggestions, and also if you can remember if the sound is 'loud' vs. 'soft', or with a 'close' or 'distant' sound space (i.e., much vs. little reverb, 'full' and 'bass-rich' voice vs. 'thin' voice).
