The Passenger

Loading

Here is the best example of a traveling shot, one that seems impossible. It begins with Jack Nicholson lying on a bed in a small room. The camera cuts from him to a grated window. The camera then moves through the grate into a courtyard. It continues across the courtyard and then pans around to the front of the building. Our view moves across a wall, past one window, and then arrives at the grated window again where we look, from the outside, into the room where the shot began. Included is the commentary by an awed Jack Nicholson who explains how director Antonioni accomplished this magic.
