New Supercut Has Characters Walking Away From The Camera

When I first started watching the internet's latest supercut, "Keep On Walking," I didn't really think much of it. Having an actor walk away from the camera isn't really an annoying cinematic trope (like, for example, having characters say, "We've got company"), which is typically the point of these kinds of videos. But by the end of the three minutes, thanks to the perfect use of "Twenty-Five Miles" by Edwin Starr and some clever editing, I found myself loving it.

Found over at Movies.com, what makes the video so much fun to watch is that it adds a special element for those that like to try and identify every movie. Because you never see the characters face, you have to rely on costume, setting, lighting and pure memory in order to name the film. Even more fun is not only figuring out the title, but looking for specific directors and counting how many times their work shows up (Kubrick, Scorsese, Tarantino and the Coens have multiple entries, sometimes even more than one from the same movie).

Check out the video below and in the comments section write down all of the movies you spot (it's not easy!).
