The actor portraying Oscar winner/director David Lean is Anthony Crivello (me). Working opposite brilliant Jessica Lange was a joy. Stellar set up and steady-cam work by director Ryan Murphy and DP Nelson Craig... and sound, make-up, hair and costume design departments. This difficult shot was blocked out and executed at the original site of The Oscars that year, The Santa Monica Civic Auditorium in three takes.
AnthonyCrivello Holy crud lucky you
That’s amazing! You are really lucky!
Wow 😲
AnthonyCrivello you are a brilliant actor yourself with a Tony to prove it! And what a voice.
Awesome work sir!!
One of the best long tracking shots ever filmed.
well, prob. for televsion
Definitely
Jaded Jonny yes it is brilliant and builds up the anticipation so well. I love how Joan walks right through a men's lavatory and pats the man urinating on his back. Joan was so open and licentious and such a character that I can imagine she would've done something exactly like that. She was the original flapper of the 20s.
For television yes. But for movie, watch Russian Ark. About the Romanovs even the orchestra was live.
What about ‘Goodfellas’?
Jessica Lange is a goddess of acting
The tracking shot here is exceptional! Should have won an award for editing at the Emmys!
come on, it's not that great
k r it is we should see this type of shot more often
k r- I’d like to see you do better! It is amazing!
Loved this shot, kind of reminded me of the long shot in Goodfellas with Henry escorting Karen through the kitchen maze of the nightclub. Both shots required much forethought along with perfect timing.
That was my thought too.
berjaboy Agree. That and the tracking shot at the start of Boogie Nights.
0:55 MAMACITA!!
This scene was so captivating when it aired 🤩
I loved this, first time I watched it I was blown away!!!
Good. God. The. Glamour.
*clutches pearls and faints*
😂😂😂😂❤
Jessica is amazing even if she just walk
This is the first appointment show I've had since Mad Men went off in May 2015. This extraordinary series ought to be lining up for a slew of deserved Emmy nominations. We'll know this summer.
Amazing! Instant classic.
Pats random peeing guy on the back, "good job".
Max Well- 1. His name was bob. 2. She said “hello, bob.”
Loved that!
That was funny!!
She was extremely familiar with everything and everyone on scene and behind the scene. All she had to do was pat him on the back and say “Bobby”.
Fantastic tracking shot. Best episode of the series. In a great career, this is the finest performance I have scene Jessica Lange do. That is saying a lot!
That was beautiful.
What a shot!
iconic
Incredible shot and camera work. There is something similar in Alfred Hitchcock's ''Frenzy'', but the camera is going the opposite direction starting at a closed door of an apartment, around a stairwell, down a hallway, and then outside and into the street ! It's especially chilling because there is no music, and you know that at that moment, a murder is taking place in the apartment where the shot started.
Wow, that was a long walk .
I like how she patted the man urinating in the gents without a word.
Loved this series
reminds me to the amazing shot from "Goodfellas" when Ray Liotta and Lauren Bracco walk into the restaurant
I love this scene so much
Susan and Jessica were amazing on this😍😍
BRILLIANT SHOW. THANK U JESSICA ….AND RYAN.
So freaking Love this scene
Me too tho its amazing. Also happy pride month
Love this shot, reminds me of the restaurante long shot in "Godfellas"!!
I love them
One of the best shots ever done in television history, IMHO
A diva's long shot in motion.
This Scene Is Marvelous
The movie was a lot kinder to those two than the book was. Bette and Joan {The Divine Feud} by Shaun Considine did NOT paint either actress with complimentary colors. This movie does a better job at being balanced.
I believe BOTH were EGOTISTIC to the enth degree, but there has to be some sort of middle ground.
I couldn't help it....but I played "Then He Kissed Me" in the background.. :-D
Fabulous shot, reminiscent of Scorsese's in "Good Fellas". One absolutely bizarre moment - they go through the men's room and Joan puts her hand on the back of a guy relieving himself into the urinal. WTF?!?!?!?
Ed Miller Far more bizarre that you’re a c--. Obvi the autocorrect accidentally put the apostrophe there. Bite me.
Omfg imagine she gets all the way to the end of the shot and the guy's lighter doesn't work 😭😭😭
I always wondered if they padded Jessica Lange's waist, hips, and butt to make her look heavier as an older Joan Crawford. I don't remember seeing Lange this full figured in "American Horror Story" episodes.
I remembered Jessica so skinny, but here...
Crawford was in fact much smaller than Jessica Lange and knowing her would never have appeared quite so full, shall we say.
Geez, that's a long walk!
I love how she says "Bob" when the guy is turned while he is peeing...as if she could ID someone in the dark....she just instantly know its him
And Joan never even slowed down as she walked through the restroom. I've read that this scene has a re-creation of the actual floor plan of the place where the Oscars were presented but, one would think there would be closed doors at either end of the restroom Joan walked through and that the fixtures would for men would not be be in such plain sight of the women. A brilliant scene of tracking but I just can't help but think some of it is intended for a bit of shock value. I hope it really wasn't like that!
@@andrewbrendan1579 of course not, unless they all knew each other ‘that much‘
Jessica Lange is truly one of the best Actresses in American Cinema. And the World.
She looks a little like Elizabeth Taylor in this scene...
I feel like I got my steps in for today
Crawford was the one
Anne Bancroft winning Best Actress cane up watching this
So why did they walk through the men’s bathroom??😂
You already know. Ask yourself why you are even asking this question. The director brilliantly added that because they knew it would make the scene even more memorable.
Azoo Cola so did it happen in real life?
@@rileyduncan1535 This is Hollywood....
Azoo Cola you’re the sassiest person I’ve ever met😂 geez get a life
Ed Miller oh okay thx
Why is there a urinal in the hallway?
she walked through a bathroom
bob nob I would find that hard to believe for THAT time.
what do you mean? she walked into a dressing room through a doorway into a bathroom/toilet area passed a man doing a pee, through another doorway and into another dressing room, there was no urinal in a hallway
ZacherlJem it was the bathroom
just go with it.
Where’s the feud??
There were two tracking shots. The first one ended at 1:05.
Did she walk by a guy with door open standing at a urinal? Or am I seeing things?
That’s what I thought, too.
A broken and a contrite heart I saw that too lmbo
Hollywood was morally bankrupt even back then.
This tracking shot was West-Wing worthy!
Team Crawford!!!
Audrey Hepburn at 0:27...Could be? Was that Night?
No !
What kind of floor plan is it that Joan Crawford walks through a men's restroom that can be looked directly into from the rooms on either side? What about doors? Usually restrooms are arranged so that from the doorway you see a partition of some kind or maybe you see sinks but not stalls and urinals. Was there a uni-sex bathroom backstage in the auditorium? seems far-fetched for that era. Apparently we're seeing an accurate floor plan here but, I still find it odd. Maybe a little bit of this scene is for shock value? Overall it's still a brilliant scene though I question some of its accuracy.
It’s so sad that these two powerful women and superb actors hate each other
They weren't best friends but all the talk about the hatred and feud was little more than a publicity stunt.
lol
She didn't walk through the parking lot. 🤪
Anybody know the song played during this shot?
Just in time
I got lost.
How about some props to the set designers and builders? What a feat!
It wasn't a set it was the actual location
@@Marcel_Audubon No it wasn't. The original theater was extensively remodeled. They had to build a replica set from scratch.
I don't get this part. Cool shot, but am I missing something? She walks David Lean back and he's confused.
That bathroom part, lol
it's more of a technical "show off" moment... to execute all of this in 1 take, 1 camera, takes an extraordinary amount of set-up work, lighting for camera/sets, blocking and timing for actors and AD's in charge of them, set designers, and a shit-ton of "choreography" for each and every individual working on this set up (in front and behind the camera).
It was to show how familiar Joan was with the awards show, having been in the industry so long, and how she knows, unerringly, to get where she’s going, which was right back to the stage for the best actress award.
0:41. I loved the man at the urinal. Put that on your resume!
I saw Audrey Hepburn
Male comfort room is the alley
So well produced, this Feud. But it's an irony that its writers insist that the feud was concocted by the greedy studio and Hedda Hopper yet this film stages several scenes of bitchy confrontations between Crawford and Davis, none of which actually happened. (This scene didn't happen either. Ushers are always on hand to quickly escort the winners to the press room.)
She walked right through the men's room, huh? :-)
It’s show business! everybody has seen everything in a shared change room backstage at some point no one really cares about modesty as much behind the scenes in the entertainment industry
I don't understand why it was such a big deal: accepting the oscar for someone else isn't like winning it yourself.
The big deal for her was that Betty Davis didn't win and that she was on the spotlight, even with someone else's Oscar!
Crawford was pissed off for not being nominated!
No one upstages Joan Crawford.
Didn't Joan have PINK fingernails that night?
Faye Dunaway really captured Joans image back in 1980. Jessica isn't bad but Faye really nailed it.
I agree, but Faye's appearance has changed that she wouldn't be able to play Joan now.
It was just a portrayal not imitation.
Faye was scary= fantastic performance
Of course. Never meant Faye could play her now, but who knows? Maybe she could have. Jessica was still good in her depiction of Joan.
Faye captured the image of Joan but not all of Joan's personality, which Jessica did. There the job well done. Also Jessica captured Crawford's glamor better, Faye many times looked like an alien impaled on her ass in her role as Joan.
very goodfellas
As much as Bette Davis would want you to believe, she was NOT particularly well liked in Hollywood.
And her scenery chewing in Baby Jane was some of her overacting at its worst.
Hollywood got it right that year by going with Anne Bancroft and Anne didn't even campaign for her Oscar as she was holed up in NYC doing a stage play.
Joan was jealous of Bette Davis
this was a really long scene
Distracting ripoff of Goodfellas.
I will not sleep for one second until I see the creators of this show punished
I must be the only one that doesn't find anything about this realistic. Joan was always a thin lady. Jessica Lange seems to carry little bit more weight than Joan would actually have even in her older years. The whole scenery that I see as Jessica is walking down the hall pat somebody on the back while peeing in the hall, and right across there is photo opts with photographers, and in the next room an elegant dine in party, then next thing is unreal. This is stupid to me.
and you were there backstage to know what did happen, I take it?
@@mehdontcare100 you weren't backstage or born in 1963 either. Ryan Murphy had to dream up an imaginary men's room barge-in to "put the men in their place!"
it's more of a technical "show off" moment... to execute all of this in 1 take, 1 camera, takes an extraordinary amount of set-up work, lighting for camera/sets, blocking and timing for actors and AD's in charge of them, set designers, and a shit-ton of "choreography" for each and every individual working on this set up (in front and behind the camera).
@Kuchi Kopi You addressed me by my name and thank you, then to call me a bitch when the likelihood you wouldn't do that to my face because I assume you have manners. Use that same etiquette when you are responding to a post on the computer. If you took the word bitch out of your response, your post would have been an intelligent response.
I don't think that Jessica Lange was the right choice for the role. I think that Susan Sarandon was chosen, not for her ability to act like Bette, but because of their striking physical resemblance. As a fan of both Crawford and Davis, I simply don't get the spirit of either in these actresses portraying them.
A good idea I suppose but the execution of this project was very uneven and overly simplistic. As gifted as Jessica Lange may be she did no convince as actress Joan Crawford, and I’m not sure many actresses today could convince in this part. All in all something over a wasted opportunity, much like the Hopkins/ Mirren so called bio pic of Alfred and Alma Hitchcock.
a rip off of a far superior tracking shot/scene in Goodfellas. Most of what Ryan Murphy does is a direct rip off.
so sue him, i'm sure he'd like to hear from you
I should've known, we wouldn't be able to make it through even two minutes without a LOVING CLOSEUP OF A FILTHY CIGARETTE. This is why we don't get Pay TV, and do not pay for movies. Without the cig, though, the scene WOULD HAVE BEEN brilliant.
a biopic about Bette Davis and Joan Crawford set in the 5o's -70's without smoking? come on, you're joking right.
Oh get over it, tons of people smoked back then, don’t watch it then if it bothers you this much, jeez.
UFF...what a boorish comment!!!
DO NOT WATCH!!!
Do us all a favor. Grow up.
Its supposed to be based on what really happened- Joan was a smoker so why not show it.
