re: Are you a fan of the long tracking shot? (like the 6 min scene in True Detec.)

Touch of Evil opening scene is a good one.

Has anyone seen Russian Ark? The entire movie is one continuous 90 minute shot following an unnamed character through the Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, Russia. Very impressive movie, its on Netflix.

Alfred Hitchcock did something similar in Rope. I think he did the film in long takes.

It is the masterpiece of this kind of shooting.

The first take made it only 15 minutes in before they had to start over. The second take went all the way through. It took six months of rehearsals to do.

I recommend watching it just as a feat of theatrical production, and the symbolism of the film is iconic as well. Brilliant conceptual piece. Won many awards.

You just have to find the version with English subtitles.
