The Russian Ark
2002 historical drama film directed by Alexander Sokurov.
The Russian Ark was filmed all in one take without the use of any cuts. It was filmed in the Winter Palace of the Russian State Hermitage Museum using a single 96 minute Steadicam sequence shot. This film demonstrates what a film without any cuts would look like and why cuts are needed to add to the pace of a film. Without cuts the film is quite slow paced in most actions and would not work for a film that is a part of a thriller genre.
