THE LONG TAKE
A compilation of the best long takes/tracking shots in cinematic history. I have to say my personal favourites are Frenzy (for the cinematic effect of the shot), The Protector (for the sheer insanity of attempting a four minute fight scene with about 60 stunt-men and a spiral staircase), Goodfellas (outside to inside, through a narrow corridor, kitchen — where even Ray Liotta bumps into a counter — and into a crowded club, incredible), and of course Orsen Welles’ Touch of Evil, where technical and narrative brilliance combine.
