147. Do you remember that scene between Paul Newman and Elizabeth Taylor
in Cat on a Hot Tin Roof (the bedroom scene)?

Wasn't it about 15 minutes of dialog and acting with not one cut, the camera on both of them? Can you imagine any of today's stars having the wherewithal to act talking and relating on camera for 15 solid minutes with no break? I don't think there's one among them who have that skill now. Well, Streep, of course.

Those kind of movies would really challenge today's attention spans.
