Plot: Running Time was filmed in black and white, in real time, and seemingly takes place in one continuous, fluid shot. It's a little like Hitchcock's "Rope," but it's on location! Carl, an ex-con who sets...( read more read more... ) out to rob the prison laundry system where he worked for 5 years (while in the pen), has spent ten years in prison planning the ultimate heist. Upon his release, he meets up with a high school buddy, who's made all the arrangements for the job, and rented him a hooker for his first encounter in a decade with a real girl. After picking up the safecracker and their getaway driver, they've got twenty minutes to pull off the perfect heist...but soon everything falls apart before Carl's eyes. He might still get the girl, though!

    Great low budget Becker film which follows Hitchock's Rope in trying to make it seem like it's taken in one shot. The story is forgettable, though Bruce is in it, but the filmmaking is very memorable.

    I got this free with 'Evil Dead', the film that earned Bruce his cult following so a black and white film filmed in one continuous shot in real time sounded interesting. Carl (Bruce) is fresh out of prison after 5 years of good behaviour but has already a plan hatched for a heist with his school friend, a safecracker and a junkie getaway driver but not all plans run smoothly and it's only a matter of time until he finds out if the job will be a success or he will end up back in prison again. It's an amateur production but it's a good film and worth checking out esp if you're a Bruce fan.

    Low-budget experiment. Dull story and ameteur acting. Fans of Bruce must see it though. Children of Men impressed me more with their long continuous shots.

    Josh Becker's use of the camera makes this movie captivating. Not to mention it has one of the funniest sex scenes I've ever seen!

    Bruce Campbell in real time, black and white and if I remember correctly one continuous shot. If you're a Bruce fan it's a must see!
