Wallace and Kelly's use of visual language was the lynch pin of the entire screenplay. While the scenes of city visual language were more sparse, as they could be. The audience would be aware of an urban environment.
It was the scenes wit the Amish where the visual language shines through.
As the readers of the screenplay may be more unfamiliar with the Amish community, a rich visual language helps one not only imagine Rachel's home, but also help give an idea of the powerful visuals that can be put on film.

1. To establish characterization, there was a few mysterious lines in Witness. What are a few examples?
2. Any other casting choice, besides Ford, for Book that you feel would fit the role?

I guess just because of the lethal weapon movies, and coupled with no previous knowledge of this film besides that it had Amish in it, I had the entire script assumed that Mel Gibson was the lead. So I guess him.
