 Rabbits
Rabbits eyes’ are the focus of a great deal of medical experiments as well, such as those which test vision or study diseases of the eye.
Rabbits play with toys as well, and love to climb, tunnel, throw things and shred for pleasure.
Rabbits also have very sensitive skin, which unfortunately makes them prime candidates for another test used to test household chemicals and cosmetics, the skin irritancy test, in which rabbits’ fur is shaved and caustic chemicals are poured directly onto their bare skin, leading to bleeding, infections, ulcerations, and tremendous pain.

Shot using a pinhole camera, the films have a hazy, tunnel-vision perspective that somehow visualizes the sensation of memory.
Brown's "Buffalo Common," a wisp of a film at 23 minutes, is a veritable smorgasbord of sorrow and a chronicle of the American Midwest as a no-man's-land of dying towns and hobbling industry.
This traveling anthology of short films is being toted from town-to-town by beyond-indie filmmakers Comerford and Brown, who are instructors at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.

 Movie Spoiler for the film - ALIEN vs PREDATOR
The Predator almost kills him, but it uses it's heat vision to zoom in on Weyland's lungs and realizes the old guy is sick.
The head digger runs and dodges until he finds a gun but before he can attack he stumbles and goes sliding down the tunnel, unable to find anything to slow his 2000 foot slide.
Lex nods and the Predator sets it and throws it into the middle of the nest, which is becoming quite active.

The company was new and had just enjoyed box-office success with "Tunnel Vision." Kenn and I had decided we needed a new opening as well as some other "pick up shots," and World Wide further agreed to foot the bill.
In the summer of 1976, almost three years since principal photography, Kenn and I sat in a screening room at CFI one Friday afternoon and saw our film in its finished stages.
Our re-enactment of a TV broadcast was definitely a challenge, with Makalai appearing to put down the host for his tongue-in-cheek attitude toward horror films, and to lay waste verbally (the physical attack would come later) to Dr. Unworth, who was appearing as one of the guests on the show.

 CQ (2002): Reviews
"CQ" is more style than substance, but there's just enough of the latter to make this triumph of art direction and production design, not completely usurp our affection for the young filmmaker's bout with tunnel vision to be a man of vision, an auteur.
"CQ" will make young film enthusiasts, like myself, wish we weren't born so late.
Good-natured and fun, the Austin Powers silliness of the era shines through, and Coppola family art director Dean Tavoularis ("Apocalypse Now," "The Godfather" trilogy) makes the film -- and its kitschy film-within-the-film -- look consistently terrific.

 MMI Movie Review: Artemisia
It's composed of ethereal images, rich in chiarusco, and an unforgettable performance by Valentina Cervi as Artemisia, that captures the tunnel-vision intensity of her artistic obsession in a time when women's career choices were limited to marriage, church or brothel.
"Artemisia's" Writer/director Agnes Merlet, who handed out her own flyers that night, isn't Shakespeare, who is?, but her film is nonetheless well worth seeing.
Gloria Steinem hates the film "Artemisia." She hates it so much that at the L.A. premier she personally handed out flyers detailing why she hated it.

IGN FilmForce chats with the director of the new Denzel Washington drama John Q. February 14, 2002 - "When your child is sick, you have tunnel vision," says director Nick Cassavetes, speaking at a recent roundtable interview in Los Angeles.
Moving away from heavy emotional matters, Cassavetes shows evident excitement when the topic of his next film comes up.

He's all twitch and nerve and tunnel vision.
Owing Mahowny is a tense, confronting little actor's film that I'm glad I saw, but wouldn't take money to sit through again.
Neither the book nor film would have been created if Mahowny wasn't caught, so it's not like the ending is a googly.

Rob Nelson is good but is often didactic and often assesses the films through a narrow tunnel vision of his own personal (sometimes wrongheaded) aesthetic and stylistic standards.
I was always amazed that he didn't get Haynes and Cronenberg; he was, as I wrote in another recent letter, one of two fully knowledgeable film critics in Minnesota, the other being Prof.
Hands down, Phil Anderson has been the best film critic in the Twin Cities.

 PIXELSURGEON Reviews Movies X2
Where the morphing capabilities of the T1000 in ‘Terminator 2’ gave us a focused stalker with tunnel vision, here we have the equivalent of a bored prank caller in the phone booth down the street.
X2 decides to bring a whole host of new characters to the fore, and whilst one can appreciate the temptation to do this, we end up without an emotional centre to hang the action on, and the rhythm of the film suffers as a result.
The original was a story of isolation, and although it struggled with subtlety at times, pointing to the lessons of the Holocaust with big CG arrows, it was nevertheless grounded in the experiences of Rogue (Anna Paquin) and Wolverine.

Other films can live in the tunnel-vision light of video, but The Searchers aches for air.
He paced away, leaving me in a kind of hot daze, mouth dry, eyes locked on the screen, still grasping at my dream of a sanctified viewing of The Searchers, not seeing that it had already slipped away, that I'd again failed to defend the film, this time with an audience of just two.
So The Searchers and I began our relationship with a grudge in common, but at that moment, under the astonished eyes of my schoolmates, I was only sure I'd made some irrevocable commitment, laid my cards on the table.

 Zakasnjalo Palnolunie / Late Full Moon (Forum, Film Festival Berlin 1997)
He told Itzko Fintzi, the lead actor and his best friend that he felt the film had turned out well overall, that his vision had come through: edgy, almost rough, emotional.
An elderly man (Yitzhak Fintzi, Edy Zahariev's favourite who received the prize for best male actor at the 1996 Bulgarian Film Festival Varna) traverses through our time which is populated with newly rich business men and Mafiosi, with homeless people and emigrants who have made their luck abroad.
Perhaps this film was a study for the later feature film, which contains an important episode in a senior citizen home.

 channel4.com/film - The Luzhin Defence
The opening tunnel-bound shot alludes to his blinkered vision, while in a series of chilly flashbacks we learn of his lonely childhood: the loveless relationship of his parents, the death of his mother, and the way his chess ability was exploited by Valentinov.
Gorris adroitly handles the film's shifting moods – the early passages of light comedy in the picturesque lakeside setting, the liberating happiness briefly shared by the lovers, Luzhin's increasingly disturbed state of mind.
One of The Luzhin Defence's strengths is that it allows us to understand the depth of the central character's obsession with chess and why he becomes so romantically infatuated with Natalia.

 THE SANTA CLAUSE 2 - WIDESCREEN DVD
Jettisoning one bad sitcom director (John Pasquin) for a different bad sitcom director (Michael Lembeck), Allen betrays his own small-time ambitions and tunnel vision and simultaneously raises the question once again of why, in our society, movies are the only arena in which "it's for children" means that the product is demonstrably worse.
For as bad as The Santa Clause 2 is, I say it's preferable to its predecessor; if the clueless filmmakers had a notion of the subversive images they were putting forth, this could've been a minor classic of the genre, no foolin'.
Already a shockingly careless film (watch for boom microphones and mismatched shots), the finale decides to dispense entirely with transitional scenes, shuttling Santa and his henchmen from situation to situation in a flutter of an eye with nary an explanation for how one thing led to another.

 Just What Did Leni Riefenshahl's Lens See?
Her tunnel vision, which is even more stunning than her detailed memory, allows her to look at an image from "Triumph of the Will" and see the tiny elevator used to hoist the camera up a flagpole, ignoring the huge swastikas that flank that flagpole.
She can sit in front of an editing machine and recall exactly how each shot in one of her films was achieved, right down to the color filter and the brand name of the camera.
