PROPOSAL (1914 practice as the basis): when is an intertitle, insert or close-up justified in a silent or minimal-dialogue scene, as a check an agent can run?
Agent check, labelled 1914 practice plus a proposal: five steps drawn from Phillips (Ch. IV): try to show the point in action; if not, test it against his named cases (continuity-essential subtle point, lapse of time, mental process, premise); pick caption, simple insert, close-view, vision or spoken line by his definitions; drop the device if repeated or not carrying the story to the climax; keep the illusion by tying objects to a character's act. The order and combination are mine; no source tests the check, and Ch. IV gives no numbers.
