'Oppenheimer,' 'Killers of the Flower Moon' are 3-hour films. Should movie theaters bring back intermissions?
From Martin Scorsese's three-hour and 26-minute epic Killers of the Flower Moon to Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer, which also clocks in at three hours, many films that received Academy Award nominations on Tuesday have lengthy run times.
Anatomy of a Fall, a French courtroom drama, is two and a half hours long. Greta Gerwig's Barbie, one of 2023's hottest blockbusters, clocks in at under two hours, but viewers are so enthralled by the film that they don't want to miss a thing.
When it comes to watching some of the year's hottest films, some theatergoers are wondering when the best time is for a bathroom break.
Killers of the Flower Moon intermission controversy
In October, Variety reported distributors behind Killers of the Flower Moon issued a warning to a handful of European and U.K. theaters that inserted an unauthorized intermission into the western crime drama. In response, those behind the Scorsese-directed film, including editor Thelma Schoonmaker, were none too pleased, telling the the Standard that the decision was "not right."
Not everyone was in line with Schoonmaker's vision. Tim Richards, chief executive of the U.K.-based theater chain Vue, shared that including a break halfway through the film proved to be particularly successful with customers.
“Our recent market analysis showed customers would like to see the return of intermissions,” Richards told the Guardian. “So far, we’ve seen 74% positive feedback from those who have tried our interval.”
The Wall Street Journal also advocated for a break, requesting “a single, civilized, eight-to-10 minute stop, somewhere near the middle [of the film]. Enough time to hit the loo, or ask a friendly bartender to top off a beverage.”
