It is the camera, and not a dialogue, which explains why the hero of Rear Window has a broken leg (photos of the racing car, in his room, broken camera). [Deleuze, Cinema 1, 1986:205-206]

C’est la cam’era, et non pas un dialogue, qui explique pourquoi le héros de « Fenêtre sur cour » a la jambe cassée (photos de voiture de course, dans sa chambre, appareil de photo brisé). [Deleuze Cinéma 1, 1983:272a].
