It is hard to contemplate how this one single long shot was made possible with the coordination of so many actor/actresses in so many rooms, albeit almost in the same museum. Spectacular.
Because it is a continuous long shot, i was anticipating some burst at some point -- but it never came -- but it kept me quite concentrated.
Finally Part of it is a grand ball. After the end, the old aristocrat who used to quarrel with others or scare others on a whim before decided to stay. Everyone around him was walking out. He stood there still, with a strange expression on his face. Well, it's a bit melancholy, like a sigh of inability to do anything about the fact that all good things will end. The dance was over for a long time, and so many people went downstairs chatting. This seems to have some meaning.
