Iconic Movie Scenes That Were Filmed In Just One Take
video description
The Carry On Films, the iconic British Comedy ensemble film series was made with such a small budget that there was no wiggle room for mistakes.
A Film Industry myth was that generally if they couldn't get a take right first time they abandoned the scene entirely and went onto the next.
Because the budget and film schedule were so tight I actually believe this was the case most of the time.
They sometimes wrote the scripts 2 to 3 times longer than they needed to for this very reason.

I love the fantastic amount of planning that goes into an uninterrupted take. The Russian Ark, which must have taken a massive amount of planning, and is perhaps the leading light of its genre. Back in the early B&W era, it was the Dutch that had sweeping crane shots that spanned a long walk through the set. Good stuff to me.

Ong Bak was amazing. Not only that insanely long one-shot fight scene but the way all fights looked real. You could see the power Tony Yaa put into the kicks and punches by how opponents fly around: )
What a gem that movie is!

Jennifer Lawrence's juju scene from Silver Linings Playbook should be on here as well. It was also one take scene.
Haven't seen an actor (male/female) ever steal a scene from a legend before. Made me a J-Law fan for life.

I'm sorry Looper but you lose brownie points for me, what about that Black Panther casino scene with Okoye, Nakia, T'Challa & Claw? Ryan Coogler did a scene explanation on it on Vanity Fair?

Wasn't the Children of Men one actually multiple takes spliced together with CGI to give the illusion of a single take?
. there were lots of such scenes in the movie, not just the car scene.

I'm glad you included The Protector. That's the one I though of when I read the title. FYI- The fight scene in The Black Panther at the night club is another one. Brilliant!

I never understood why they make such a big deal about something filmed in one take? Honestly, who cares and more importantly, who would notice?

I thought the Creed fight was multiple takes made to look like one, hence them seemingly gaining bloody noses etc through it.
