Longest movies that take place in real time?
For some reason I feel as if these types of movies top out at around 90 minutes, but I'm wondering if there are some other examples.

Was Dog Day Afternoon real-time? I haven't seen it in years, but IMDB says it's 2 hours and 5 minutes.

Yeah, but it's in slow motion, therefore not in real time. Boo-ya!
Also, they had to change reels on the camera, so there's gaps of time missing from the finished film. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Empire_%281964_film%29 Certainly not the longest, but one of the better real-time one-shot films is Running Time, which is 70 minutes long: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120042/ |

Wikipedia has a list of real time films, but doesn't seem very exact (it lists Clue as one example):
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real_time_%28media%29 There's also a list of films with the longest running times. The third place finisher on the list, The Cure for Insomnia, is 87 hours of an artist reading a 4,080 page poem. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...y_running_time |
