Need help/ideas on a research paper about the one shot in motion pictures - details inside

Posted by: jonjon on Jul 26, 21:50

I hope this is still considered a movie topic, if not delete. I have to write a paper in my Visual Communications class at Auburn. First, I am a returning student, so this isn't my first rodeo. Actually, I've been playing HSX since 1997. It is the final assignment for the class. The ideas or examples I have so far: 1917 (yes, I know it is edited to simulate one shot); the 1990 friendly personal battle for longest one shot take between DePalma & Scorsese with Bonfire of the Vanities & Goodfellas. The paper is short and sweet, but I need at least 3-5 examples and any suggestions I could find more info or opinions, new films or historical. Thanks! JonJon

I'd offer you up the fight scene in Atomic Blond during the escape it was like a 10 min take. I believe. {nm} albrown Jul 26, 22:05

The entire film "Russian Ark" was shot in one continous take extepan Jul 26, 22:16

Rope or Victoria (2015) {nm} 3ebfan511 Jul 26, 22:18

Opening of The Player by Robert Altman. Goodfellas Copacabana scene. {nm} teesanyone Jul 26, 23:23

Opening of "Alphaville" (1965) - as Lemmy Caution enters the hotel, rides the elevator, and walks corridors - 4 minute take. ballpark_frank Jul 26, 23:24

My bad... only that short sequence - not the whole film... - But still, a great flick. {nm} ballpark_frank Jul 26, 23:26

I'm not looking for entire films bc they tend to be gimmicky, though I'm interested in Russian Ark. More of a historical look. Thanks! jonjon Jul 26, 23:36

Now... you all have piqued my interest in that film (Russian Ark)... Thanks! {nm} ballpark_frank Jul 27, 00:14

probably some trickery, but the Liberty London department store shot in Cruella (video inside) tealfan Jul 26, 23:53

Opening sequence from Touch of Evil, and then match it with the one-shot from The Player RupertPupkin Jul 26, 23:55

Pool party scene in Boogie Nights. Fight scene in Old Boy. First half of One Cut of the Dead. Final shot of I Am Cuba. {nm} numbersix_99 Jul 27, 01:34

UK movie Boiling Point (almost all one shot). The Protector fight up the stairs. {nm} numbersix_99 Jul 27, 01:36

Snake eyes , 1999, Brian de Palma, I think the opening scene was 12 minutes one shot {nm} sphere Jul 27, 04:13

Rififi robbery scene... brilliant, long, and silent. Been a while, but I remember it mostly as a one-shot. {nm} gsquared Jul 27, 06:39

Birdman {nm} Nobody Jul 27, 06:54

How the heck did that not come up sooner? How did I not remember?! {nm} gsquared Jul 27, 07:12

Timecode (2000)- Shot with 4 digital cameras at 4 different locations all in continuous shots {nm} milligan Jul 27, 07:33

AND there were multiple takes, all one continuous shots. The actors swapped parts in some of the takes. DTravel Jul 27, 10:35

aside from the classic showy long-takes, don't sleep on Spielberg's mastery of the oner that you rarely even notice is a oner. tons of them wow platinum Jul 27, 08:05

Prob one the classics is Hitchcock's Rope. There was also Running Time with Bruce Campbell. Both has about 8 hidden cuts {nm} Kevman66 Jul 27, 09:58
