Bullitt

Bullitt's story is not even eluded to during the opening two minutes, and a ton of dolly shots, close ups, and wide-shots are used. Only the starring actor's names are shown, and primitive CGI is used to dramatize the showing of their names. There is no sound besides the jazz-like music in the background. At a $5 million budget, it grossed over $43 million at the box office. The film was nominated for 17 awards, of which it won 7.
