What Is the Busiest Shot in Movie History?

A video essay about a random question I once asked myself: what is the busiest shot in movie history?
So random in fact that I had to make up a whole bunch of definitions and limitations to answer it (and so a long and complex tracking shot wouldn't just kill all the fun).
I came up with four rules to narrow it down. Rule number one: Geography. The shot must use as much of the screen as possible. Every side and layer.
Two: Consistency. The camera can never completely abandon the initial angle. It can approach and pull back and pan and tilt, up to a point, but we must remain in the same spot throughout. Arcing motions are out the window.
Three: Internal Movement. Elements on-screen cannot remain still; they must change positions. And because of the Consistency rule, they must move more than the camera.
And four: Story. We must be able to witness a full storyline developing on screen.
Thus specified I arrived at an extraordinary (as should be expected) shot from "War and Peace" (1965-1967), the monumental Soviet epic by Sergei Bondarchuk. It deals with Pierre's unintentional marriage proposal to Hélène. It's an extraordinary use of depth and the width of the scope aspect ratio. The amount of story and information on screen is astounding! This is, after all, one of the greatest masterpieces of Russian cinema.

If you'd like to know how faithful the shot/scene is to the original novel, I included below the specific paragraphs it adapts.
War and Peace: Book 3, Chapter 2 (www.gutenberg....)
“The step must be taken but I cannot, I cannot!” thought Pierre, and he again began speaking about indifferent matters, about Sergéy Kuzmích, asking what the point of the story was as he had not heard it properly. Hélène answered with a smile that she too had missed it.
When Prince Vasíli returned to the drawing room, the princess, his wife, was talking in low tones to the elderly lady about Pierre.
“Of course, it is a very brilliant match, but happiness, my dear...”
“Marriages are made in heaven,” replied the elderly lady.
Prince Vasíli passed by, seeming not to hear the ladies, and sat down on a sofa in a far corner of the room. He closed his eyes and seemed to be dozing. His head sank forward and then he roused himself.
“Aline,” he said to his wife, “go and see what they are about.”
The princess went up to the door, passed by it with a dignified and indifferent air, and glanced into the little drawing room. Pierre and Hélène still sat talking just as before.
“Still the same,” she said to her husband.
Prince Vasíli frowned, twisting his mouth, his cheeks quivered and his face assumed the coarse, unpleasant expression peculiar to him. Shaking himself, he rose, threw back his head, and with resolute steps went past the ladies into the little drawing room. With quick steps he went joyfully up to Pierre. His face was so unusually triumphant that Pierre rose in alarm on seeing it.
“Thank God!” said Prince Vasíli. “My wife has told me everything!” (He put one arm around Pierre and the other around his daughter.)-“My dear boy... Lëlya... I am very pleased.” (His voice trembled.) “I loved your father... and she will make you a good wife... God bless you!...”
He embraced his daughter, and then again Pierre, and kissed him with his malodorous mouth. Tears actually moistened his cheeks.
“Princess, come here!” he shouted.
The old princess came in and also wept. The elderly lady was using her handkerchief too. Pierre was kissed, and he kissed the beautiful Hélène’s hand several times. After a while they were left alone again.

It always makes me cringe when I see movies in scope format with bad composition and poor blocking. Filmmakers need to know that every single scene needs to be blocked and storyboarded BASED ON THE ASPECT RATIO you are choosing.

@ProuvaireJean Ай бұрын

A complicating factor is that these days directors and cinematographers may have to accommodate multiple aspect ratios, as the movie could be released in say 1.4 imax, 2.35 non-imax and 1.78 home media. Makes framing and blocking trickier.

@ZerogunRivale Ай бұрын

@@ProuvaireJean I honestly wish that if someone chose to shoot for IMAX, that they'd just shoot their entire movie in 1.43/1.90. It's a cool aspect ratio to begin with and it can be shown on other screens, just with black bars on the side. It's not as if The Lighthouse wasn't shown in theaters or older movies aren't released in widescreen theaters all the time.

I’m happy to see how more people are discovering Bondarchuk’s War and Peace. Sure, the film has its weaknesses, but it is one of the greatest movies ever made. Most commentators who’ve watched it usually talk about the grand scale of the battle sequences with thousands of extras. While those scenes are indeed impressive, what I find to be truly great about War and Peace is how classical and innovative techniques are incorporated in every scene. Nobody shot films in such style at the time (or after). Some of the long shots, play with perspective, handheld shots, shots from air, etc. are truly amazing.

@TheVid54 Ай бұрын

As you say, the Bondarchuk WAR AND PEACE is full of magnificent scope flourishes. The sound editing was evocative as well, with it's screen-directional dialogue. A lot of that was lost on the Criterion blu-ray, which folds about 80% of the 6-track sound design to mono. I hope they'll fix that audio problem some day, but I doubt it. The Mosfilm HD version on KZfaq is sound correct, so that's the version to watch.

We agree about "War and Peace." Not to brag, but I once met Bondarchuk and I've seen his personal 70mm print of this film -- twice. I don't agree with your rules and therefore will choose Tsar Alexander's entrance into the ballroom as my favorite "oner" in the film. It's a VERY busy shot, even though it doesn't tell a lot of story. That said, I've always liked the shot you've chosen. I like the weird, alienating dripping sound. And I like the fact that the scene ends with Pierre saying "Je vous aime," which is absurd if you know any French. If you ever put together a "50 coolest shots from W&P" video, I'll happily offer my suggestions. My #1 choice would be the shot you chose for the thumbnail -- "Voila une belle mort."

Off the top of my head I'm going to go with a scene from Citizen Kane...the Charlie Kane song. The board of directors are all arrayed on the right of the screen with Leland and Bernstein's backs to the camera. Kane gets up, a marching band enters, Kane talks to Leland then walks back, then dancing girls come out and then Kane goes back to talk about war with Spain with Leland and Bernstein. It adheres to all your rules.

I just recently watched this film, and yes, it is soo slow but the scenes are eye-popping. I found it surprising that in USSR they would portray religious procession of the miraculous icon of Our Lady (before the battle) with such reverence. They didn't hold their ideology over the faithfulness to the source material and the spirit of the age. I remember the times when the West was capable of this, too. :P

@czwarty7878 Ай бұрын

lol, don't think they didn't, of course they did. artists just found ways to get past censorship. in cases like this he could state to censor board that "religious scene is supposed to show in critical light religion as the opiate of masses, as understood by marxist ideology" and it could pass through. connections of artist were important too, same scene could be considered acceptable or offensive depending on how favorable the artist was to ruling elite, and as always favors and alliances constantly changed in regime

@user-hc1uz2dn5s Ай бұрын

Censorship was wild in USSR. Many movies went "on a shelf" for many years, directors tried to found a way to distract censors from some scenes and so on. But "War and Peace" was a political project. Authorities were offended by the fact that Hollywood filmed "War and Peace" first, so they decided to go all the way to make a great "War and Peace" for export.

@farerolobos9382 Ай бұрын

@@czwarty7878 From the late 60's onwards, censorship was very much relaxed in comparison to other times. Besides, historic accuracy was also an important criteria. Think of Andrei Rublev, by Tarkovsky, for instance. Even in Stalin's times, some artists had more freedom than others. For instance, Bulgakov wrote The White Guard, romantizacing the White army in the Civil War, and the Days of the Turbins, the play based on it, won a standing ovation by Stalin, while others went to the GULAG for rather tame poems.

TBH, even without the "Busiest Shot in Movie History" gimmick, I'm just interested to hear Moviewise discuss why this single shot from Bondarchuk's War and Peace (I've only seen snippets, I really want to watch the whole thing) is so good. FWIW, though, I remember being very much struck by the post-Agincourt tracking shot in Branagh's Henry V, with all the grim stuff going on in the background while Branagh carries Christian Bale's lifeless body. Best example of why that film really needs to be seen on the big screen. I saw it with a grad school classmate who remarked that Branagh squeezed a lot out of what is essentially a throwaway line in the play.

To defend my bois Pierre and Bondarchuk for a moment... Pierre being a top-of-the-league Xtreme Lacker of Game is definitely a crucial early plot point, but Helena is superficial and later repugnant to him. The scene is about being set up in an awkward situation and relationship by eager social climbers - it's not Hitch. He's not just slow, even though the annoying dripping of water might suggest it.

In Bondarchuk's War and Peace. Part 2-Natasha Rostov. From 10:36 to 12:36. The camera starts in the ballroom, moves and tracks following the Emperor and his entourage down a deep hallway and back again moving amidst hundreds of costumed extras until it comes back to where it started. Astonishingly blocked and choreographed to give one the feeling of actually being in the crowd. Doesn't fit all the criteria, but it is breathtaking.

@Lemendu Ай бұрын

Thank you for your effort but the busiest shot in movie history (according to your rules) is probably found in any Luis G. Berlanga film, the master of Spanish cinema. Try “Placido”, “La vaquilla”, “Todos a la cárcel”or “La escopeta nacional”, or I’m just remembering the final shot in “Vivan los novios”. Berlanga was afraid of empty frames, so he packed them fully, he used mise en scene a lot and was able to tell a story within a scene through character behavior and interaction.

With your criteria in mind (mainly the size one; there are a bunch of busy shots from William Wyler's Academy-ratio films), I think one shot from West Side Story (1961) is even busier. Near the end of the opening ballet sequence, there's a shot where all of the gang members are converging on the fight happening on the basketball court. Actors are coming into the frame from every single angle, almost at random, converging on the site of violence. It feels like a Jackson Pollock painting acted out in real life. While it doesn’t tell a story from beginning to end, it completely encapsulates a standalone narrative moment- humans converging on an act of violence to participate in it.

@edwinatakasaki2258 Ай бұрын

I thought it might have been a scene from Kubrick's Barry Lyndon but was shocked to see that you hadn't covered that movie on your channel (heaven forfend!!, shall I use this comment as a request??). Having read the novel several times, you'll know the reason the "proposal" needed a push is that Helena is vapid - her role is to stay silent and look beautiful. Socially awkward Pierre is wet rag that couldn't make a first move or any move for that matter. Leaving them alone was a disaster - the parents needed to step in for the fait accompli. Such is how negotiations happen, you step on people to push things through, that's how it's ever been - delicate or rough.

@ZerogunRivale Ай бұрын

Top 10 Shots from Rope, when? I also would have to think more about a "busiest" shot, but I think a contender could be the opening shot of "A Clockwork Orange". You have the four of them at the top, the perspective creates a triangle/pyramid like formation with everyone else in the room, you get people with opposing dressing (and possibly ideology?) styles on opposite sides of the room. It is a room with completely different types of people, but all seem to be stratified in the same drugged up milk room. They are all part of the same system, which I believe fits in with the rest of the narrative of the movie. I'd say that's enough to say it tells an entire story.

@matheus5230 Ай бұрын

Random comment: Hitchcock once said that exposition is a pill that must be sugar-coated. Something you have to try whenever possible to make it feel natural instead of just delivering necessary information to the viewer. His saying about exposition is also true for the shot counter-shot exchange as well. It's not something that one can really not do a whole film, but one can attempt to spice things up and not rely completely on it. Interesting body language from the actors also goes a long way.
