What exactly happened with the big cop in the white hat opening the door in the back of the squad room? It all comes to a stop after that, where they are milling there trying to decide what to do with Oswald. Was there anyone in the room? We don't know. But the big cop stays focused on the inside of the room for quite a long time, as though maybe he was talking to somebody. Was somebody in there?    



We just don't know. Maybe it was empty, and he was staring into an empty room. Maybe he expected someone to be there, and that was the problem: that nobody was. We just don't know. 

But, I'll point out that you see NONE of this in the other version of the film. It never goes there. In fact, there is no correlation at all between the other version of the film and this one. No frames match between the two. None of them! So, how can they both be the Charles Buck film?

We know that the big cop did NOT place Oswald into that room. It means, ipso facto, that the big procession had to go in reverse to back Oswald out of there. Why don't we see any of that?   

What comes next in Four Days are the photographers pointed the other way, caddie-corner to the door in question above.



Note the location of the clock and the stacks of books in back. So, they are pointed 180 degrees opposite to that door from before. And then it jump to Oswald in the room alone. 




So, presumably, Oswald was whom they were shooting. But, why is he so low? You know that that electrical outlet was only a little ways above the ground. And what is that big, dark, rectangular thing? A bookcase? A cabinet? In an interrogation room? It looks more like another room door to me. 

And the whole thing looks very contrived to me. But, I go back to that big cop in the white hat. He led Oswald through that maze back to that back corner, so what did he expect to happen? What did he expect to find there? Someone waiting inside that room? 

Look at it again. What the hell is going on here?
