Take note, Pamela Ferris was eating an orange. In all 3 Godfather films when an orange is seen on screen a character is either betrayed or murdered soon after.
A brilliant reference.

I'm not criticizing, the shot is excellent and my kind of taste - however; the ping pong ball tricks are cuts, and there are various others. The shot is considered a whole tracking shot in terms of the final result that the audience sees, though technically in the production stages this is a composite of shots merged into a tracking shot.
I really applaud the creators of this, if you haven't seen it, it is pretty cool.

There is also definitely one when Julianne Moore is shot. The motorcycle crash was added digitally, and this is where the cut is. The blood wasn't applied to her during the take while the camera looked away (2:30). It's a separate take.

It was only cut when the camera went outside the car.

It's an awesome setup.

There are actually several takes and "cuts" but it's digitally manipulated to make it appear to be the one shot.

There must be a cut when the camera goes outside of the car, since the vehicle doesn't have the elaborate rigging on it. But it's incredibly executed regardless.
