One of my favourite haunts is the Guardian website, and one of my favourite pages is its film blog. This story about long shots is typical of their style and I think it's great:

I actually made my own little comment in there revering Godard's Le Weekend amongst others. Must keep thinking about long shots though - I love that experience in a film when you realise you're in the middle of a long shot and you just want to rewind, but also keep going forward.
