I disagree. The angle contributes to the indecisiveness of Hamm and the inability for the play to end, though it does. Also, given how bitter Hamm is, Hamm could've been shot in a dark room, or had his back to the audience b/c of it. His position is not facing the audience directly which hints more at how he feels internally. I see your point, but the play could not be more stagnating than if it had no words. It builds up, falls, and starts over much like Waiting for Godot.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
@HammandClov WELL, you've got it precisely. it's like sean hannity talking to thomas jefferson, talking to otto von bismark, talking to ghandi, talking to me talking to you only because there's nobody less interesting to talk to
I wish this was on dvd.
