On average, a feature film has around 1400 individual shots edited together. Action films often have 3000+ shots. Here are several films with a surprisingly low number of total shots. Annie Hall won the 1978 Best Picture Oscar with only 355 shots!

Just a quick note to everyone who ordered 35 SHOTS OF RUM on Blu-ray - there was a mix-up during the manufacturing process and the wrong movie was put in the box. We will be announcing soon when the correct discs will be ready to ship out.

@berlinale
Silver Bear for Best Screenplay to Angela Schanelec, Radu Jude notes that scripts began as "instruments of control," and that MUSIC is one of the great films that goes against this and should be cherished and honored.
I like that Hong makes movies faster than I can watch them. I’m not even close to caught up and he just keeps knocking em out. It’s rare and beautiful thing.
