One take!
That's how I feel whenever I hear people go off on how great Robert Altman is. Not only is incomprehensible, overlapping dialog the most overrated innovation in cinema, but everyone acts like the long take in the opening to The Player was not only never done before, but that it was never done better and far less self-referential and masturbatory.
Not only masturbatory, but like almost everything he ever did, it was lazy. It's a camera on a tripod with a big zoom lens. Holy shit, a zoom in a Robert Altman movie. |
