Getting over it

NCFOM hosed my sleep.

Lest my Sunday get BBQed, I had to do something to overcome the bone-chilling evil taste that Anton Chigurh left in my mouth. It's not just the cold, unflenching and psychotic image of Anton that the Coen brothers managed to create, but the whole philosophy of 'can't get away from the evil that is your past' that is deeply unnerving.

So I digged into my collection to pull out this one. Look at the sheer beauty and charm of this shot. Fantastic! If there is ever a reason to love cinema, this is it.

A three minute long tracking shot from the masterpiece Goodfellas. The scene has the protagonist Henry Hill escorting his date Karen Hill through the back doors of the happening place - the Copacanana. Of course, he is a wiseguy and she doesn't know it.

Can't believe that the whole scene is a single shot. Three looong minutes!

Just about the perfect scene. Even the background score is amazing.

Scorcese is God.
