From a technical standpoint, shots were typically much longer and many of the films had more dialogue (outside of maybe compared to a Tarantino film).

Yes absolutely.

I tested this once.

Newer movies cut away form a shot in about 2 seconds and also tend to have big closeups more often.

Spielberg said movies were using more tv type filming conventions (over the shoulder shots).

It's true.
