Orson Welles' film classic Touch of Evil begins with an impressive three minute tracking shot which manages to create suspense while tying many of its themes and ideas into the story's inciting incident. Likewise, this video from UCB LA's Midnight Show stars Andy Richter and is about him catching people having sex. I think we can all agree they are basically equal in importance and quality. Especially once the cop sucks on the banana.
(Slightly NSFW)
In my analogy between this video and Touch of Evil, Andy Richter is Charlton Heston, the daughter is Janet Leigh, and everyone else put together is Orson Welles.
