Although the song isn't up to much, the video is amazing to watch.

I remember a pair of artists (i think they were Swiss) doing this kind of work about 10 years ago, but can't remember their names. Does anyone know?

Ye gods! That seemed to be a single take - I was just wondering whether a collective nervous breakdown would ensue should the director announce, "Now let's just try that again with the lights a little dimmer".

An even more amazing single take was achieved in the recent film "Russian Ark". Shot entirely in The Hermitage place in St Petersburg (formerly Leningrad and Petrograd) to celebrate the city's tri-centenary.

Art-wise, the installation from the Youtube clip was a magnificent, exuberant example of insane inventiveness and joy. So many contempory artists seek to shock, depress and sicken.

Bravo! Bravato! Bravissimo!

For anyone of a certain age they will remember a game based along the same premise where the object was to trap the mouse.

I thought this was excellent and if the above poster is correct and it is a single take then it is reminiscent of a Kubrick shot, particularly some of his long tracking shots.

I know I'm being used, that's okay cause I like the abuse.

Rasputin? Who me?

As V.I.L. once quoth, “Verna, Tovarich! Vwee govareet pravda.” The ol' Ruski yazik and film criticism always seem good partners:

And viddy films I would. Where I was taken to, brothers, was like no cine I'd been in before. I was bound up in a straight-jacket and my gulliver was strapped to a headrest with like wires running away from it. Then they clamped like lidlocks on my eyes so I could not shut them no matter how hard I tried. It seemed a bit crazy to me, but I let them get on with what they wanted to get on with. If I was to be a free young malchick in a fortnight's time, I would put up with much in the meantime, my brothers.

The sounds were real horroshow. You could slooshy the screams and moans very realistic and you could even get the heavy breathing and panting of the tolchocking malchicks at the same time. And then, what do you know, soon our dear old friend, the red, red vino on tap. The same in all places like it's put out by the same big firm, began to flow. It was beautiful. It's funny how the colours of the real world only seem really real when you viddy them on a screen.

Now all the time I was watching this, I was beginning to get very aware of like not feeling all that well, but I tried to forget this, concentrating on the next film, which jumped right away on a young devotchka, who was being given the old in-out, in-out, first by one malchick, then another, then another. This seemed real, very real, though if you thought about it properly you couldn't imagine lewdies actually agreeing to having all this done to them in a film, and if these films were made by the good, or the State, you couldn't imagine them being allowed to take these films, without like interfering with what was going on.
