Russian Ark: Difference between revisions

''[[Russian Ark]]'' is a 2002 film from (obviously) Russia, directed by Alexander Sokurov. The film -- which follows an unseen narraratornarrator through the Russian State Hermitage Museum in Saint Petersburg as he talks about the history of the city and the artifacts within the museum -- is something of a miracle in filmmakingfilm-making: the entire film (around 93 minutes, excluding the credits) was shot using a single Steadicam in one continuous, uninterrupted take. When you realize that this film has over 2,000 actors in it, this feat becomes even more incredible.
