Scene from Michelangelo Antonioni's The Passenger including preceding shot and penultimate shot:
"The film's penultimate shot consists of a seven minute long take-tracking shot which begins in Locke's hotel room looking out into a dusty, run-down square, pulls out through the bars in the hotel window into the square, rotates 180 degrees, and finally tracks back into the hotel room."

If this was done in '75 and the Steadicam didn't come out until '76...then this is some of the smoothest shooting ever....figuring it out ain't so difficult, but just the smooth flow of it is very hard to achieve. But these are simple tricks people....Kubrick did some amazing stuff, and I think there are a couple of shots in Das Boot that smoke this stuff. IMHO.
