What is the longest film/movie ever made?

Answer 1

Film stock by Czech director Buracz Bosnitz in 1968 consisted of 908 hours of blank film. Not surprisingly, it was only shown once and the nused to film movies. The longest UK film was a 1970s British underground movie called 'The Longest Most meaningless Movie in the World' which lasted for 48 hours.

Answer 2

According to anecdotage.com, the aptly titled "Cure for Insomnia" is the longest film ever. It runs about 87 hours and features L.D. Groban reading a really looooong poem. Just in case you find that kind of boring, according to IMDb, the film slices in pornography and music video footage. Probably not the best "date movie," but we'd still take it over Sandler.

"Cure for Insomnia" is best described as an experimental film (i.e., pretentious and without a point). Of all the films with actual storylines, the 1928 Chinese movie "The Burning of the Red Lotus Temple" is the longest, clocking in at 27 hours. As for the longest documentary, "Grandmother Martha" wins with a 24-hour running time.

Answer 3

The Longest Most Meaningless Movie in the World (1970)

Supposibly clocking in at exactly 48 hours, The Longest Most Meaningless Movie In The World is regarded by many as the longest movie ever made. According to hearsay, the film is potentially endless as it's entirely constructed by progressive additions of found footage.

I haven't seen it!!! Don't plan to either!!
