Title: Single-Location Films
Post by: Royalty on July 16, 2014, 07:01:57 AM: Movies that take place in one location for most of the film.

Just a few:

The Shining
The Mist
Misery
Jaws
Identity
Clue
Sphere
Silent House

Anyone have any other good, solid films that take place in a single location?

The shining does take place outside, even the road is shown. not single location, that would mean entirely inside the hotel

Correct. There is even a part when the cook is shown at his home; in Denver.

About 70% of Reservoir Dogs takes place in an abandoned warehouse. But it also has scenes that take place elsewhere.

ALfred' first technicolor film.

It was impossible to have a take longer than 10 minutes in 1950. A thousand foot magazine of 35 mm film would only last 10 minutes.

Now with electronic cinematography you can literally make a film all in one take.
See: "Russian Ark" It took 4 tries to do that.
