Interrupters and parenthetical elements
Ignore those who thinks they're better than you, it's their flaws, not a reflection of your worth.
This strange inertia of the camera, its refusal to get involved in the drama, renders in a palpable way Cleo's disentanglement from the pathetic role of a faithful servant ready to sacrifice herself.
What is the difference in usage with these two examples?
How do you tell what is parenthetical or what requires a period and new sentence.
I think the first example requires: and not a reflection of your worth or a period after 'better than you'. But as written it looks like the information in commas is parenthetical but both sentences look similar.
