Corrected entry: When John came in to help Howell's wife with her brain tumour if you look at the clock the dial is not on the same beat as it clicks. It almost looks like the dial is moving in slow motion. (02:11:25)

Correction: The clock is a grandfather clock; the pendulum swings one side to the other, and on the down-swing (I'm sure there's a more technical term) it clicks the second hand over. So at first glance, it appears (not just in this scene, but on all clocks like it) that the ticks are a bit behind, but in fact they are accurate. In a similar fashion, an orchestra conductor's beat is the up-swing of his baton; most people count the beat on the down-swing, but if you pay attention, you'll see it. So, too, with the clock.
