Just saw Claude Lelouch's "C'etait Un Rendezvous" a.k.a. Rendezvouz again. Wow, what a movie! It's just a 9 minute long insane drive through Paris in the early morning with Claude Lelouch himself behind the wheel. You don't see him, the camera just shows what's infront of the windscreen. It's a single-take, no special effects, just the sound of the engine and tyre squealing. In the end he make a harsh stop in front of some stairs at Montmartre with this fantastic view over Paris. He runs out of the car at the same time as a beautiful lady comes walking up the stairs to meet him. It's the Rendezvouz! They hug. Sunrise over Paris. End. Simple but perfect! Like a speed racing haiku.
