Seems like we have the official final runtime. I'm really curious if people these days have the patience sitting through such a long movie in cinema :laugh:

 

Martin Scorsese’s ‘Killers of the Flower Moon’ Clocks in at a Whopping 3 Hours 54 Minutes

Well, consider me shocked.

Martin Scorsese’s “Killers of the Flower Moon” is NOT 3 hours 20 minutes. It’s also NOT 3 hours 45 Minutes …

No, it’s 234 minutes! That’s 3 hours 54 minutes.

That’s pretty close to what Fremaux hinted at, that it’s just a few minutes shy of Sergio Leone’s “Once Upon A Time in America,” which ran for over 4 hours.

I’m guessing that when ‘Killers’ screens at Cannes it’ll be a day almost solely dedicated to Scorsese’s epic, you won’t have too many other films from the official selection screening that day.

If people were complaining about the duration of “The Irishman” then watch out … His last three films were all epic in length: “Silence” (161 minutes), “The Wolf of Wall Street” (180 minutes) and “The Irishman” (210 minutes). Scorsese’s taking it to a whole other level with this one.

Of course, I’m not bothered. Length is second fiddle to quality. As Roger Ebert once said “No good movie is too long, and no bad movie is short enough.”

Other lengthy Cannes runtimes this year include Steve McQueen’s “Occupied City” (240 minutes), Wang Bing’s “Youth” (210 minutes), Nuri Bilge Ceylan’s “About Dry Grasses” (197 minutes), Justin Triet’s “Anatomy of a Fall” (150 minutes), and ‘Indy 5’ (142 minutes).

Leonardo DiCaprio's Killers Of The Flower Moon Is One Of Longest Movies Since Gone With The Wind

Leonardo DiCaprio's Killers of the Flower Moon reported runtime makes it one of the longest movies in history since 1939's Gone With The Wind.

As Leonardo DiCaprio's Killers of the Flower Moon prepares for its premiere at Cannes, the reported runtime makes it one of the longest movies in history since 1939's Gone with the Wind. Based on the book of the same name by David Grann, the upcoming Western crime movie foretells a mystery behind the murders of several Osage tribe members in the 1920s, which coincidentally happens as oil is discovered on their tribal land. Alongside DiCpario portraying the lead role, Martin Scorsese helms as the film's director.

 

Killers of the Flower Moon's runtime has been disclosed based on a few reports. While the exact runtime has yet to be confirmed, The Movie Database listed the movie's theatrical runtime as 3 hours and 54 minutes. However, in an interview with Variety, Cannes Film Festival's director Thierry Fremaux was asked about the movie's runtime. While he was unsure of the film's final cut, he stated it is five minutes longer than Once Upon a Time in America (if the extended cut, 4 hours and 11 minutes). If so, the movie's extended cut could run up to 4 hours and 16 minutes. Screen Rant has reached out to Apple for confirmation but has not heard back in time of publication.

 

Killers Of The Flower Moon's Runtime Is Historic

While taking into account the intermission time and overture, Gone with the Wind runs approximately 3 hours and 58 minutes, which is only four minutes longer than Scorsese's film reported runtime. In contrast, Fremaux doesn't specify which version of Once Upon a Time in America he is comparing it to since there were three different cuts. The extended cut hits over four hours, while the United States version was only 2 hours and 19 minutes. The European release was much longer at 3 hours and 49 minutes, in which Fremaux's estimation would line up with the length set by The Movie Database.

 

While over three-hour movies are not unusual in the mainstream, such as the Avatar movies and Avengers: Endgame, a near-four-hour length is a rarity. Still, Killers of the Flower Moon could become one of the longest American movies in history, joining the likes of movies such as Lawrence of Arabia (3 hours and 42 minutes), Ben-Hur (3 hours and 32 minutes), and 1996's Hamlet (4 hours and 2 minutes). It would also become one of the longest movies in the 21st century.

 

The runtime is also a record for Scorsese and DiCaprio, who have regularly worked on lengthy films. Scorsese's longest movies include The Irishman (3 hours and 29 minutes) and Wolf of Wall Street (3 hours), which starred frequent collaborator DiCaprio. DiCaprio's career longest film was Titanic (3 hours and 14 minutes), and he featured in many nearly three-hour movies, such as Django Unchained (2 hours and 45 minutes). Now, Killers of the Flower Moon will break that feat for both director and actor. With Oscar buzz already surrounding it, its lengthiness may affect those responses, but it could still become one of the most competitive movies in the upcoming award season.

I sure hope it's for a new role, his hair is longer and I think more blonde as well, you can see in the pic I posted above without the cap. If not for a role, still beautiful.

Long hair for an upcoming role is what I’ve been thinking too, but who really knows. I’m just hoping for a new role soon.

so do they not care about the box office?

 

I saw that at IMDB Killers is in second place for the movies people most want to watch, only after Barbie. I hope the lenght doesn't scare people to go in theaters.

I honestly didn't know how to feel about Lee and Coachella, but I'm glad he's not allowing hearsay dominate his decisionmaking. A few of his friends are there, Nina Dobrev and David Dobrik is there. Speaking of, what the heck happened to that meet n greet David promises 2020 voters? We were supposed to have a luncheon at Lee's place. Did he (David) thinks we would forget about that?

IF only he could give up the gel and the slicked back hair for Cannes... he would look even hotter with his natural hair texture

Agree, I'd love to see his long hair flutter in the wind as he walks the red carpet in Cannes😩

Before Oppenheimer? Interesting. All I read is how everyone is dying to know if Barbie or Oppenheimer will take the crown on their opening weekend at July 24th. Also at this point never underestimate Tom Cruise and his 100th Mission Impossible jumping and running tour LOL
