1917 being a one shot film was probably the best decision Sam Mendes could have made. Traditional cuts and editing would have taken away all the tension that a one shot war film offers
Callum Ja I the point still stands because Dunkirk has multiple perspectives and is meant to happen over a certain period of time because time is the enemy, as in 1917, just over a slightly longer period- so the one perspective real time thing wouldn’t have worked in Dunkirk but really did for 1917
@@reloadtdk5182 Nolan is indeed, a GOD. 1917's decision to be filmed as a one shot is pretty cool, because as the comment above says, TIME is the enemy.
Why didn't you mention Victoria? This is the only real one-shot-film I know about (no editing whatsoever). All the movies in your list use hidden cuts or visual effects to create the illusion of one shot. Victoria is one giant 2-hour take, which makes it truly exceptional.
watched 1917 last weekend and can say my absolute favourite part about the film was the way it was shot, it just gave it something extra that other films just don’t have. Think it also added so much suspense
I'm sure someone has mentioned it, or someone certainly will, but Russian Ark is genuinely done in a single take and it uses it perfectly. As the character floats through the beautiful exhibits and corridors, the camera does as well creating this mesmerising effect where you feel like you're just watching through someone's eyes. It's a beautiful film, and if you can I'd suggest you watch it
One can argue that 1917 technicalllyyy visualizes two shots in the film *SPOILERS* (the second being when Schofield gets shot by the head and passes out for several hours) it was a clever way to fast forward the day tho
If it were me, I would have Schofield get shot, fall downstairs offscreen, then have the camera pause, pan to the window to reveal it being night out, and then come in on Schofield’s face. I get why they did it though, since he’d be unconscious (ruining it being part of a human’s experience), and it would take a bit away from the gorgeous image where the camera goes out the sniper’s window and reveals the ruined town.
ik it's not a movie and it isn't the whole episode but daredevil does a long take action scene in every season so marvel has already dipped their toes in the concept
One shots to me feel almost claustrophobic. You can’t leave, you’re forced to follow and the scene doesn’t change to a new one when you would expect. For 1917, it was cool to use one shot bc it’s pretty much real time and cuts can change your sense of time which wasn’t an issue in 1917 bc you’re following along the whole time. Birdman always seemed to make sense as a one shot since it was set in a theatre and when you’re on stage, there’s no cuts, just whatever happens. I love long takes and one take films are certainly exciting to see done but at the very least long takes look GORGEOUS especially with action - think Revenant - and it shows real talent for the actors, director, cinematographer and editor for the film because they can’t hide behind an edit. Love one take or at least long take films and whether there’s a reason for it or not, it looks gorgeous and I’d much rather long takes than constant cutting
I feel like 1917's idea for the single take was brilliant, but I could tell where so many cuts where during the film that it would take me out of it every once in a while. It wasn't frequent enough to ruin it, but it would become distracting so I couldn't get as involved as I wanted to
I think it was more than once I knew it was a one-shot movie I was looking for where they made the secretive cuts. And usually I'd see it. I think that's just a natural disadvantage of one-shots; they drag you in and your brain notices, so you start noticing, too, where they must have used some trickery to make actual cuts.
i feel like the fact that 1917 was a one-shot film really made it so personal and intimate, i truly felt what the characters were feeling and followed their journey in real time
personally I thought the one-shot aspect of 1917 limited a lot of it. I felt it didn't allow us to see a full perspective of the war. However at times it was incredible
gabriel behzadi I think that was sort of the aim though. The film showcases a very small slice of the war, the one shot makes that small slice as immersive as ever.
I feel like that is the point, it's not a film about a huge battle or a massive war development, but rather a film about stopping a battle from happening, avoiding war
It's funny that when i saw birdman the first time i went to it excited to see a superhero movie but what i got was a completely different experience, that was very human and just felt like the most real thing that can be experienced
Mr Robot season 3 episode 5 uses this same technique as well... I honestly think its use is much more justified than in these films, and works a lot better as well since it's only 40 minutes and not 2 hours long like 1917 or birdman
The second half of the films of Bi Gan are always one-shot. The one-shot of "Long Day's Journey Into Night" is a 57 minutes 3D dream sequence and insanely impressive yet substantial as well
People are talking about Victoria, but Russian Ark (which was featured in the vid) was the first (and I think still holds the record??) to successfully do the one take feature length. Still holds up to this day despite being nearly 20 years old
Hardcover Henry, Run Lola Run, Children Of Men, and Uncut Gems all do a great job of stressing you the fuck out and really *feeling* like a One-Shot due to it's tag-along-the-lead style and not cutting to scenes that center supporting story. The horror flick Silent House claims to be unedited.. haven't seen it yet
Maybe one other example of this technique: "Victoria" (2015) is actually one-shot. They did multiple takes (I think like 3) but all you see in the final film is one-take. They also never had a real sophisticated script but only some plotpoints and improvised along the way as far as i know
Please go watch Victoria from i think 2015, Karsten!!!It is really a great movie and in opposition to the three well known examples it really is only one shot. There are scenes like in a car where it is unbelievable how they did it
also! 1917’s plot is a QUEST! It’s nearly videogame-sequel! One shot technique is such a great tool for achieving the excitements and intimate point of view of a story like this
To make even a whole scene in one take is obviously hard enough but making a whole ass movie in one take or at least make it seem like it's one take just blows my mind all over
The movie Rope actually does have a visible cut in it. It's near the end, where it goes from a shot of the two main guys and then cuts to James Stewart's face. It felt very jarring after not seeing any cuts like that at all previously in the film.
Don't forget the Woody Harrelson starring/written/produced/directed 'Lost in London! 'Okay' one-shot movie, but what makes it special truly special is that it was shot and screened live in theatres.
if you wanna watch a real one shot movie without any secrelty hidden cuts, you gotta watch "Victoria". It's a German movie and about 2hours long, the acting is incredibly natural to this point where I believed they actually improvised the whole dialouge... absolutely brilliant!
my favorite one-shot film isn’t exactly a movie but an episode from a show. “two storms” from the haunting of hill house. it’s the same approach but instead of merging cuts together, they filmed real 17 minute shots and put the scenes together into one episode that transcended two periods of time within one weathering storm. watch it and you’ll understand!
Commenting in the "future" where some of the best genuine one-takes are in television One is The Bear, where its second to last ep of s1 is all mostly a one-take (minus the intro), and Succession in the third ep of its final season had a over 30 min one take, the longest in television history atm Both accomplish their job well: it feels claustrophobic, where you cant "see" what happens outside your realm of vision, and it really emphasizes the hectic atmosphere
I LOVE that you put in parts from the german film 'Victoria'! I am from germany and this film is a perfect example for the fact that also contemporary german films can be great!
One of the reasons Rope was shot in 10 minute increments was b/c the reel of film has a 10 minute limit in length. And the event in 1917 didn't take place within 2 hours (but rather around 24 hours?), so the movie isn't one long take, but rather a series of long takes.
A couple tv shows also used one-shot stuff, one being the third season of mr robot, and this other show about cops raiding some crack houses. I forget the name.
It’s amazing that your commentary is always so in-depth and it’s clear that you put a lot of research into your videos, it’s great to see people like you putting effort into their content instead stealing other people’s ideas. Well done
i think 1 shot movies take advantage of the audience not wanting to be in a position of uncomfortability. Like whenever you realize you are having a nightmare but can’t wake yourself up, all you want to do is escape that reality. but you can’t.
1917 was the one of only war films I could sit through. I think that is because of the fact that is focus is less on the big, dramatic moment and more on the personal connections and emotions of the people
You should see Utøya: July 22. It's a Norwegian one-shot movie about the terror attack in 2011. In my opinion it is the perfect use of the one-shot technique, it really conveys the claustrophobia of being trapped on an island while trying to escape and at the same time allowing you to feel how long 72 minutes really is. It's not an easy watch though. It's emotionally devastating.
The best one-shot in the world is the Always Sunny episode "Charlie Day". Between the first and last commercial breaks, it's all one take, and it's genius.
The film "Lost in London" with Owen Wilson and Woody Harrelson is also a one take film. The only difference is is that it's actually real time, a live stream movie. It's a cool experimental film that I've never seen before and i recommend watching it!
If you loved Hitchcock's 'Rope' I'd highly recommend checking out Reece Shearsmith and Steve Pemberton's 'Psychoville' which crafted a superb homage to Rope in the fourth episode. Shot, I believe, in two continuous takes that were seamlessly blended into one the single set was crafted in such a way as to allow the crew to shift scenery back and forth off camera allowing for the extended takes. Though extended takes are a common thing in cinema it's rare to see a TV show and, in particular, an entire episode attempt such an experiment but fans of Reece and Steve will know that they frequently not so much as push the envelope than blast it into orbit. You can no doubt find behind the scenes footage online and it makes for fascinating viewing ...
I went into 1917 basically blind and I didn’t actually realise it was one take. What I did say as soon as it ended is that it was unbelievably tense the whole way through, and I felt like I couldn’t escape the experience of the characters. For me that proves how brilliantly the technique was used in this film.

Uncut Gems, while not a one shot if definitely felt like one. We are with Adam Sandlar for 24hrs and the craziness he endures from around 5pm in the opening to about 8pm the next day. It moved at a realistic pace
Emmanuel Lubezki is the best! He also did Children of Men's cinematography and he just really knocks it out of the park each time with his one-shot technique!
You saying they force the movie to be in real time made me realize: I'm surprised a one-shot filmmaker hasn't thought of incorporating timelapses & slow motion into their one shot films & now I wanna do that 😂
You should check out Kaili Blues and Long Days Journey Into Night films by Bi Gan. The long shot is used in a dreamy way, which actually adds to the narrarion of the films.
Hitchcock was, in hindsight, displeased with Rope. He said cuts/editing is a major component of film storytelling, and he thought it was a bad choice to make a film with zero cuts. Not that that means you have to think that, but Hitchcock did.
Rope is my favourite Hitchcock film and Birdman is one of my favourite films in general - glad to hear you talk about them - they’re fantastic and really use this style in a way that doesn’t feel gimmicky. While I like 1917, it is by no means anywhere near as seamless or useful to the actual storytelling process in my opinion
i went to see 1917 in cinemas and the whole time i felt extremely uneasy... i now understand why. i was stuck in the world war. i wasnt allowed to escape, i heard stories of their families at home but never got to see them. i went through the whole journey with him and rally felt the relief when he reached his destination
i love your videos karsten! they made me appreciate film more and i’m so happy i watch them with a different approach now. You’re the best and I hope I can meet you one day to thank you! ☺️
I love "Birdman" and looking forward to watch "1917", but both movies are not true one shot movies, they have long takes and clever use of cuts when the camera points to a wall or something else...You should mention "Victoria" - the only movie i know from the last years, that is really made in one continuous shot - and if you don't know it, its time to watch it: its a real masterpiece!
what's your favorite one-shot film?
The Russian ark by Alexander Sokurov
It’s not a film but daredevil the hallway scene or the Prison scene
1917
Rope, by Alfred Hitchcock! Feels like watching a play

While I like 1917, it is by no means anywhere near as seamless or useful to the actual storytelling process in my opinion
i went to see 1917 in cinemas and the whole time i felt extremely uneasy...
i now understand why. i was stuck in the world war. i wasnt allowed to escape, i heard stories of their families at home but never got to see them. i went through the whole journey with him and rally felt the relief when he reached his destination
Alf? Idk if u know my mans Hitchcock like that bruh! Lmaoo
i love your videos karsten! they made me appreciate film more and i’m so happy i watch them with a different approach now. You’re the best and I hope I can meet you one day to thank you! ☺️
1917 impressed me for how well they filmed the movie and I need to see Rope
Victoria and blindsone are both good movies, don't miss those 2
I’m from Mexico and the way you pronounced “Iñarritu” is so funny to me😂
“If you’re unfamiliar and too stupid to figure out what it is just based off its name” yikes

It's not funny.
Love it when you get a one shot
Literally just finished rewatching Birdman and this pops up
Why didnt you talked about Victoria?
Because not a lot of people have seen it
He showed a lot of clips of it but I guess he wanted to keep the vid short
he didn't watch it. use ur brain
Both Birdman and 1917 are great at creating the illusion of being One-Shot, but Birdman hides the illusion much better than 1917 did.
I didnt really like 1917, but I'm glad it exists. It gives me hope that more experimental films will come out to the mainstream like 1917 did
I love "Birdman" and looking forward to watch "1917", but both movies are not true one shot movies, they have long takes and clever use of cuts when the camera points to a wall or something else...You should mention "Victoria" - the only movie i know from the last years, that is really made in one continuous shot - and if you don't know it, its time to watch it: its a real masterpiece!
this was a really interesting watch! keep it up karsten!
I’m trying to think of a last time I was this early joke but I can’t think of one ✌️
