well... close ups (E.g. on big mac's face when he's giving out the work tabs, indicates the power he has over the dockworkers)

also during father barrys speech at the work site, we visulise the camera from low angle symbolsing his ascending power. And than wen he rises up on the sling with dugan's body as if ascending to heaven,

close up camera shot of terry: saloon scene
"for gods sake help me if u can". Edie askes terry for help and he replies, "iwould if i could" the camera shot reveals the immense guilt in his face as he is being held back by Johnny friendly's loyalty. his facial expressions portray distress. quilt, sadness and helplessness

[haddzy]

the medium camera angle shot shows how umcomfortable terry was with the killing of joey, as he sighs and opens his jacket, sliding his hand in, as if attempting to find comfort

[haddzy]

the above shot happens infront of johnny's bar following the killing of joey where terry stands with the goons!
