Many years ago, I recall talking with friends about the possibility of and technical difficulties associated with making a movie in the first person. You know, how to progress the narrative, telling the story in real time, and how to hide the camera. It was a conversation that did not last long. Little did we know the style had already been pioneered way back in 1947 in the Raymond Chandler adaptation
Lady in the Lake. Granted, I have not seen it, but I am intrigued. Then there is the FPS sequence in the game adaptation
Doom, which was pretty well done. Also, in 2013 we got a remake of the mean and nasty
Maniac, putting you in the head of a killer. Now have the first first-person action film,
Hardcore Henry.
