One of the most wondrous feats in filmmaking is filming a scene in one long take.

Though some films have achieved the look of this shot using illusions, they still succeed in immersing the audience into the world of the film. Such outstanding shots deserve to be recognized, which is why we're looking at the 15 best scenes shot in a single take. "One-take films" will not be included since they're in a class by themselves, so movies like Birdman and 1917 won't be on this list. So with that in mind, let's dive right in.
