Originally posted by KatherineKent: The scene between Clark (dressed as Superman) and Martha which leads into Lois running from the police car shouting his name clearly has both of them inside the porch and out of sight of the driveway. Martha moves down the steps but Clark doesn't. So, when Lois gets out of the car and runs to the house shouting 'Clark', the cop will only be able to see Martha. It will not seem at all strange that Lois is running to the Kent house shouting out the name of someone who lives there.
If this is truly the case, it was too subtle for the casual viewer. As a film-maker they should have made it more overt to the audience that Clark in his Super suit wasn't visible to the policeman. I'm a big fan of subtlety (such as the scene where Lois and Clark are about to kiss and then he rushes off to save Martha ) but in the visual medium and with something as important as Clark's secret identity they shouldn't leave the audience with any doubts.
