Got from some website:
John Henry Timmis IV once produced a film comprising footage of the poet L. D. Groban reading a 4,080-page poem of his own creation, inter-spliced with X-rated film footage and rock music videos. The result, entitled The Cure for Insomnia, was named by The Guiness Book of World Records as the longest film ever made. Its runtime? 5,220 minutes (eighty-seven hours).

You'd need at least 28 DVD's to fit it all on... The first dvd to come with limited edition suitcase.

Yes it did. The patient was relocated after the nurse packed and cleaned up. However it did involve a long narrative by the injured patient.

Re: Longest movie ever made
^^ Oh right. I got confused with that film I guess, not enough shiny things and big explosions to keep my attention spa
85 HOURS??? Well what's it about? Is there a plot or is it art house?

Can't find anywhere to buy it. Damn, that is a really easy world record to beat. Just goof off for 100 hours, and you've got it. It could make pay for you too, bet someone you can get in the world record book.
