Can it be? Has All This Been Staged for Me?

Russian Ark
Aleksandr Sokurov, 2002

Shot in the Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, this flick consists of a single continuous steadicam shot done in a single take. Apparently it took eight years to plan the film and they were only allowed 24 hours in the museum to shoot.

Oh, and it has a cast of around 2000.

Pretty rad--check it out.
