Goodfellas: Steadicam Entrance (1990) 3k6ac
The long tracking shot through the Copacabana nightclub came about because of a practical problem: the filmmakers could not get permission to go in the short way, and this forced them to go round the back. Scorsese decided to film the sequence in one unbroken shot in order to symbolize that Henry's entire life was ahead of him, commenting, "It's his seduction of her (Karen) and it's also the lifestyle seducing him". This sequence was shot eight times. 3g4r
