Opening Scene with Hysterical Infant


I liked this movie and thought it had a lot of original ideas for a murder mystery. But I just can’t bear scenes where the filmmakers leave an infant hysterically crying as was done in the prolonged opening scene of this movie. It’s unbearable and it’s not right that this is acceptable for purposes of entertainment. We no longer make animals suffer in moviemaking but this infant in distress scene seems to find its way into movies again and again. I’m searching the internet to see if this was some form of computer-generated movie magic but I’m not seeing anything like that.
