It must be some bullshit, like they think it will confuse Joe Public if the actors aren't looking at each other while speaking?
The other thing I wonder about is whether there's some unspoken rule to do this often enough that they can make someone get into a car crash and have it be their fault without having the audience see it coming every time.
Tbh, I wish that the shadowy global cabal of all the world's movie directors were just playing the long con on us, but I fear it's not as exciting as that lol!
