The slow-mo does two things: it draws our attention to the passage of time, and grants the murder just a bit more weight than usual. It's a shocking and elegant moment as the shrapnel floats away in slow-motion. Businessman Adam Capstone looks out a window and sips his coffee just .off. Drops of quicksilver plink one by one into a petri dish. The final episode of Inspector Lewis begins with long, loving shots of Oxford landmarks (perhaps a bit longer and more loving than usual?), as a woman reads a philosophical passage of The Brothers Karamazov.
