Some of my favorites include the “Ax Gang” montage from Kung Fu Hustle (Stephen Chow, 2005): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YvCa6FH9nro <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YvCa6FH9nro>.
Pretty much every montage from Citizen Kane is a master class in how it’s done: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rfl2M8B9WA8 <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rfl2M8B9WA8> and https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=32&v=pKS_fSDP3-E&feature=emb_logo <https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=32&v=pKS_fSDP3-E&feature=emb_logo>. Not the most memorable film, but Notting Hill has a single-shot montage that’s interesting: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ce_BXD_ONQ8 <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ce_BXD_ONQ8>. In his later films (but still pre-Morrissey), Warhol did some things with temporality that I would call variants of montage, created by rapidly stopping and starting the camera, and sort of “sampling” some banal activity that, in earlier years, he might have shown in its entirety. Early scenes in I, a Man are exemplary of this: https://archive.org/details/1967andywarholiamaniaman <https://archive.org/details/1967andywarholiamaniaman>. And to jump on Chris Freeman’s bandwagon: https://southpark.cc.com/clips/153324/sports-training-montage <https://southpark.cc.com/clips/153324/sports-training-montage>. The kids used to love this, but these days South Park might not be so hip (even if you tell them that the character Stan is named after Stan Brakhage). Echoes of Silence has a terrific sequence, beginning with still frames then becoming “animated” again, at about the midpoint: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1NpYOBQ1feE <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1NpYOBQ1feE>. Finally, Edgar Wright is a modern montage master. Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz are standouts.
