Look at the amazing cut from the shot of the train tracks to the shot of the Church interior. The perspective is exactly the same. The tracks going off into the distance form exactly the same perspective as the church pews leading to the pulpit down the aisle.
Absolutely one of my favorite movie moments. The zoom in on the empty chair gets me every time. The entire cast and story up till then is perfectly summed up in the two minutes the clip lasts.

What a remarkable use of spatial composition!
I love movies (good ones, that is).

Very powerful. Each character -even the baddies- are given their moment. The Lon Cheney character seems the most tragic.
