Close up shot of chris' mother fixing her apartment door. It shows her also giving a very detailed facial expression which is why the choice of a close up was made.
this is a wide mid shot ots of the landlord and chris' mother having a conversation. It has a larger depth of field than the next shot to make the mother appear smaller and more feminine/ womanly. The shot is above her head making her appear smaller and on the defensive side of the conversation, the eye line is also off in comparison to the next shot.
Finally a reverse shot of the pastor and chris' mother having a conversation.The shot is at a lower angle and the eye line is completely slanted down. This makes the landlord appear much more powerful and intimidating the mother.
