There were many films, but I believe Hitchcock's 'Rope' was one of the first famous film to have a 10 minute long-take

Most of the Hollywood films during the 90's after 'Players' used long-takes to establish the film.

I used to refer long-takes as tracking shots until a DOP corrected me. In fact, Orson Wells has made a tracking Long-Take in 'Touch of Evil'

In fact the Long-take in Theo Angelopoulos' 'Eternity and a Day' is text book for cinematographers. Every movement has a meaning.

The flying scene in Alejandro Amenabar's 'Sea Inside' technically is not a long-take(but we dont feel edits) it does the job of a long take.

The famous 'Copacabana Shot' from GoodFellas makes us feel the same amazement that Karen has while getting into Copacabana through back door

The dialogue scene through corridor in Tarantino's 'Pulp Fiction' is another example of Long-take. Shows the time taken, how cool they are.

The intro long-take in 'Strange Days' disturbs you like hell. Film was made in 95, still she used a handheld camera not a steadicam.

Whatever be the meanings, 'Russian Ark' hold the record for long-takes. The film is 95 minute long, single steadicam shot - No edits.

Satyajit Ray has used long-takes in many of his film. Dream scene- Nayak, Monkey scene-Charulata and so on.

In fact Andre Bazin had written about Long-takes. He expressed that it was an ultimate realization of cinematic potential.
