Enemy of the state - Freeze,Rotate,Zoom,Focus,Enhance!

I've never forgotten this SIGGRAPH demo from almost twenty years ago, in which the authors effectively switch camera and light source computationally (... in a static scene) [1] Ever since then, I have viewed scenes such as the "lingerie store scene" from Enemy of the State [2] with a little bit less eye rolling...

Anyone remember this scene from Enemy of The State (1998)? [VIDEO] Jon Voight: "Can the computer take us around to the other side?" Jack Black: "It can HYPOTHESIZE" :)

Reminds me of that scene [1] from Enemy of the State where they "Rotate us 75 degrees around the vertical" in one of those "enhance, enhance" tropes. [1] [VIDEO]
