Regarding the cameras in the restaurant, I always thought it was easier and a stronger argumentAll of these indicators of people thinking Cecilia was the one rather than some inexplicable reason is more plausible to believe that than what was truly happening. I did not find it to be a big issue because of this.for people to highly suspect of Cecilia killing her sister rather than some...invisible entity. That and depending on the camera angle.
Also, it seems no time had gone by between the restaurant and when she’s locked up while chaos continues to ensue. It’s plausible all evidence and whatnot (including camera footage) was being reviewed at the time. An example, when the cop immediately thinks Cecilia was the one taking the cops out even when she’s obviously sort of removed from the situation.
Then at least give us some token exposition to mention that the cameras are inconclusive here or they weren't working or the angle makes it look like she did it. It's just ridiculous. There are security cameras EVERYWHERE these days. I find it hard to believe the detectives didn't review every angle to make sure they had an open and shut case here.
The film showed us the blade was nowhere in her hand when her sister died.
Any lawyer would've asked for discovery or reviewal of the footage to create reasonable doubt. Her detective friend wouldn't have reviewed it?
In the ending, Cecilia is at least smart enough to have Adrian look like the knife is in his hand before she cuts his throat IN HIS SECURITY CAMERA FRAMES.

IMHO it's poor writing. They only think about the security cameras as a narrative device WHEN IT'S CONVENIENT.
