Children of Men..the long take - Magical Realist - Feb 13, 2020

"This is a good example of the long take in the famous car scene from Children of Men.

"These sequences were extremely difficult to film, although the effect of continuity is sometimes an illusion, aided by CGI effects." - Wikipedia

The CGI were used to blend different takes together (according to IMDb they had 6 takes). Still though, an impressive scene."

Dir: Alfonso Cuaron
DP: Emmanuel Lubezski

Though I remember liking it in one sense or another, that's about the only thing I can specifically recall from the movie. Aside from maybe a boat scene at the end.
