He used multiple cameras a series of running gags and an absurdist attitude and the rest is history. The MTV style in Oliver Stone s Natural Born Killers is a direct descendant of Lester s film however it broadens the stylistic palate to include variances in the style of the set pieces and the pace now 30 years later has picked up considerably.

The style may focus on stills as in Chris Marker s short film La Jetée it may focus on long takes as in Miklos .
