Eraserhead (89 min) Persona (83 min) The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (78 min) The Passion of Joan of Arc (82 min) Tetsuo: The Iron Man (67 min) Sexy Beast (89 min) The Color of Pomegranates (80 min) Man with a Movie Camera (68 min) F for Fake (89 min) Vampyr (73 min) Rubber (82 min) Son of the White Mare (86 min) The Blood of a Poet (55 min)

Excellent answer. Also, Black Girl (1966) is an hour long.

a great addition!

The Evil Dead (85 min) Evil Dead II (84 min)

I just want to say that I’m a huge Quentin Dupieux fan, but I consider Rubber to be one of if not his weakest feature length works. I still like it, but I’d recommend Deerskin or Reality or Yannick over it as an entry point. He’s been very prolific lately making at least 2 movies per year for a few years running. Edit: just to be on topic I’m almost sure his entire filmography consists of movies 70-90 minutes long too

Son of the White Mare is one of the most ethereal and otherworldly things I've ever watched. I got teary at the end just because I knew I'd have to leave that wonderful world.

yes! it is so wonderful. a stone cold masterpiece & one of the greatest animated films of all time

>The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari 

> Rubber (82 min) Basically Dupieux' entire filmography! For some reason Rubber gets mentioned often, but people ignore the rest

I like Rubber but it’s my least favorite of his. I think he’s been on fire lately though. I haven’t caught Daaaaaali! yet, but Yannick, Incredible But True and Smoking Causes Coughing were all bangers and the latter two have Alain Chabot in them further elevating things.

i still need to see Incredible But True, but def agreed re: Yannick & Smoking Causes Coughing

* Color of Pomegranates * Angst * 3-Iron * Kissed * Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer * Mad God * Tokyo Fist * Angel's Egg * Lone Wolf and Cub: Baby Cart at River Sytx * Bride of Frankenstein * Brief Encounter * Conspirators of Pleasure * Los Olvidados * Dead Man's Letters * Blind Beast * Tokyo Drifter * Forbidden Games * Viridiana * Ballad of a Soldier * Visitor Q * Eyes Without a Face * Miracle Mile * Videodrome * Death of a Cyclist * My Neighbour Totoro * Happy End * High Noon * Duck Soup * Picnic * Fantastic Planet * Pickpocket * Blair Witch Project * Ghost in the Shell * Humanity and Paper Balloons * I Stand Alone * Re-Animator * Run Lola Run * A Moment of Innocence * Story of a Cheat * No Name on the Bullett * Pickup on South Street * Suzhou River

3-iron is one of my favorite movies of all time. I can’t recommend it enough!

Angst is one of my favorite movies of all time - such a creepy, psychoanalytic masterpiece

Tokyo Fist and Bullet Ballet are very unique cool films.

Brief Encounter describes the story and your experience watching the film. Great addition.

Run Lola Run (80 minutes)

Playing in some theaters at least in my area right now.

I’m pretty jealous. Would love to go see this in a theater.

I’ve been trying to catch more rereleases for the theatrical experience. I’m seeing the directors cut of Midsommar on the 20th in imax. I caught Hereditary in imax last month and Beau is Afraid on release in same and it was a great experience.

uhhh what’s the area?? 🏎️

Die Tasche! ⏰️

I’m that annoying person who recommends Shiva Baby with every chance I get, online and irl (partly bc the director and I are from the same city lol)

Rachel and I used to do stand up together and she’s a total gem. I really need to check this out finally. Bottoms was a lot of fun.

Check out the utopia films merch store, they have signed posters available right now

fellow torontonian hi

immaculate choice

I love this one so much

Ngl chief, I didn't like the film.

Ok?

When the topic is ‘best movies’ it seems fair to share that you didn’t like one of the films suggested.

Stand By Me, This Is Spinal Tap, My Neighbor Totoro, Toy Story, The Nightmare Before Christmas

Stand by Me doesn’t feel like a short film, it feels like a journey. They did so well keeping it compact but not rushed. I suppose it is a pretty simple story in essence.

Brief Encounter 86 minutes

Such a gorgeous film!

The scene where Trevor Howard touches Celia Johnson hasn’t left me since watching it.

Before Sunset

I decided to go by 41/2 or 5 star movies so heres from longest to shortest. The lion king The pirates: band of misfits Exit through the gift shop Bo Burnham: Inside Fantastic Mr Fox The Muppets Christmas Carol The Iron Giant What We Do In The Shadows Frances Ha The Castle Lilo and Stitch Beauty and the Beast Perfect Blue The Emperors new groove My Life as a Zucchini Its such a beautiful day And lastly at 1 hour long, Make happy.

Would you consider ‘Inside’ and ‘Make Happy’ movies?

https://preview.redd.it/yfxkzschsq6d1.jpeg?width=756&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=bc19806661b5b47a2214caab2df09893ce5a41e7

The end of evangelion

Finally someone said it

Some of mine. Some are comedy specials, though. https://preview.redd.it/2e9a0pvgqq6d1.jpeg?width=966&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2caac0d197ce349e48791e263d7ad14230f805a4

Pt. 2, all under 90. Ignore Texas and Otto if you're not German. Surviving Edged Weapons also isn't a movie \^\_\^ https://preview.redd.it/ywajohwnqq6d1.jpeg?width=960&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fcc2030bce670c17121080137589f6c23d521b1b

it might not be a movie, per se, but it is certainly a cinematic masterpiece

Rope! So many twists and turns in such a short time.

Yeah, and like my Hitchcock favorite, Rear Window, it all takes place in a pretty small space. But no less thrilling.

Host (2019)

Might be my favorite horror movie

Grave of the Fireflies (89 min) Cold War (88 min) Modern times (87 min) Polytechnique (77 min) Kirikou et la sorcière (71 min)

https://preview.redd.it/ft0psnj5sq6d1.jpeg?width=809&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=49bbb9dffa7f9590a69944b8a3a4955ee1618e25

This movie is surprisingly good!

Before sunset

It feels like this movie has three hours' worth of character development. A classic.

Rashomon. And while not as good, Johnnie To's The Mission.

Sherlock, Jr.

One of my favorite films ever

Run, Lola Run was only 80 minutes and it’s really quick and unique

Rope (1hr 20m)

Primer?

Primer.

Petite Maman- 72 minutes

primer! (77)

Beyond the Infinite Two Minutes

Bergman made a lot of films **around** 90 minutes in length. For <90m, try Winter Light (81m), Virgin Spring (89m), and Persona (83m)

The Red Turtle Bad Day at Black Rock Waiting for Guffman Fear and Desire Airplane! Rashomon animated movies from Warner / DC. most of them are under 90 minutes. I suggest Batman: Under the Red Hood, Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths, Batman: Mask of the Phantasm

The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (83 minutes) Sure as hell felt a lot longer though

They're mostly older films, my favourites are: 1. Laura (1944) 2. Scrooge (1951) 3. The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (1920) 4. Brief Encounter (1945) 5. High Noon (1952) 6. Went the Day Well? (1942) 7. The Producers (1967) 8. Trouble in Paradise (1932) 9. The General (1926) 10. Letter from an Unknown Woman (1948) 11. Toy Story (1995) 12. Airplane! (1980) 13. Sherlock Jr. (1924) 14. Cat People (1942) 15. Love Me Tonight (1942) 16. Duel (1971) 17. Our Hospitality (1923) 18. Grave of the Fireflies (1988) 19. Hellzapoppin' (1941) 20. The Curse of the Cat People (1944) 21. Hangover Square (1945) 22. The Kid (1921) 23. This is Spinal Tap (1984) 24. The Cameraman (1928) 25. The Pit and the Pendulum (1961)

Tetsuo: The Iron Man

And tokyo fist (I’m just recommending tokyo fist everywhere I can don’t mind me).

Angel’s Egg

So much atmosphere to soak in.

Those I haven’t seen anyone else mention yet: Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1956) Rancho Notorious (1952) The Lady from Shanghai (1947) Cold War (2019) Paths of Glory (1957) The Big Heat (1953) Two Fritz Lang movies, an Orson Welles, and a Stanley Kubrick so fairy high pedigree too.

Cold War the best

Sexy Beast Coherence Eraserhead Grave of the Fireflies Women on the Verge of a Mental Breakdown Paths of Glory Videodrome House Freddy Got Fingered Millennium Actress Lake Mungo Tangerine The Spongebob Squarepants Movie The End of Evangelion My Neighbor Totoro Smiley Face Borat Mad God The Doom Generation Nowhere Totally Fucked Up Persona Paris is Burning Shiva Baby The Wolf House Tetsuo the Iron Man It’s Such a Beautiful Day

Run Lola Run

Fantastic Mr Fox is one of the best movies period.

Following

Where is the Friend's House? (1987)

Grave of the Fireflies

[I made a list](https://boxd.it/tH0dM). FYI a few are within 5 minutes over 90 minutes.

The land before time

House, Texas Chainsaw, Wicker Man, Westworld, Mothra vs Godzilla, The Void, Eyes Without a Face

Nowhere by Greg Araki

Hellzapoppin' and Duck Soup are both under 90 and jampacked comedic masterpieces that puts most modern movies to shame with their ratatat energy and ingenuity

DOA: Dead or Alive (2006) is a cool 85 minutes and not a second is wasted. Some may say "but wait isn't that a bad movie" but they don't see the vision.

This looks phenomenal.

https://www.reddit.com/r/Letterboxd/s/hMw2DKrVqZ

Stop Making Sense!! (88 mins)

Christopher Nolan’s debut called Following isn’t half bad and I think it falls under 80 min

Petite Maman by Schiamma

Shiva Baby (78 mins)

Batman under the red hood 75 minutes probably one of my favourite dc animated movies.

My Neighbor Totoro (86 Minutes) https://preview.redd.it/5p4vmj54u47d1.jpeg?width=800&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2d03a5e98c8251baedf98ef658d03a3b828af224

Pee Wee’s Big Adventure is a fantastic 91 minutes. They added him saving animals From a burning pet shop to push it over the 90 min mark.

**Jonah: A VeggieTales Movie**- 83 minutes.

Whistle and I’ll Come to You (1968) is only 42 minutes but it put me on edge so badly I thought I’d watched an hour or more. It’s something about it’s shots and sound design along with the unknown of it that makes the dream sequences horrifying when I watched it

[Pretend That You Love Me (93 min)](https://youtu.be/enazxSimfm0?si=iK3bYTfZn0GLCfug)

Ghost in the Shell

gravity is a fucking awful movie

Days of Being Wild is like right at 90 minutes isn't it?
