It is part of the language of film. I read about it in a book called "Understanding Movies". But I have noticed it dozens of times. Check it out in the next few films you watch.

Wierd...I work with and have edited for a lot of (currently, fairly important) people who make films and have never heard (or heard of) that or seen it applied etc. I've worked on stuff and/or have intimate knowledge of projects where people or vehicle's were moving in either direction with either outcome.
In fact, I think it's safe to say that in general, in cinema today, it is not a language that's being spoken with any regularity.

The book was written by Louis Gianetti and is in its ninth edition. I believe Amazon has it.
