Movies with short “time” spans?

A day of Saturday School, 7ish hours?

Saturday school for us was 4 hours.

Was Unstoppable all in one day?

Dog Day Afternoon

Thats what I had in mind. Great movie. And it was so ahead of its time. Trannys and Sex change operations in the 70's? Some were outraged, others intrigued.

Don't you mean "The Negotiator"? That is a favorite around here.

I do mean the negotiator. The Siege was Denzel Washington and a series of terrorist attacks I think.

What about Argo? That can't be more than 3-4 days?

The siege was Denzel and Bruce Willis yeah. About martial law being used vs domestic terrorism..it was OK.

No, that group was hiding from Nov 4, 1979 to Jan 28, 1980.

memento. the end is the beginning, so technically it's a negative time span

That's a great movie and solid answer.

That's not a short time span

 

[PiratePenguin]

That's not a short time span

Still, gave us the great line of "Argo F&*K yourself"

I might rewatch it this weekend. No matter how many times, I always enjoy it.

Most of the ones that came to mind have already been posted. "For Love of the Game" is a great pick.

"Falling Down" was just a few hours, wasn't it?

"12 Angry Men" is one afternoon.

Just hopped in to mention this one.

 

[Dartgod]

What about The Birds? That took place in just one day, didn't it?

Ooooo Training day. That’s a good one. Another one I really like is Margin Call. Don’t know why I’ve seen it so many times.

Margin call is awesome

If memory serves, The Outfit took place in a very short time span.

 

[MtlJeff]

Die hard 2 I believe is basically just the movies runtime. There's no skip aheads or anything. All the die hards are less than a day but I believe 2 is the shortest timeline.

My wife came up with "Date Night" with Tina Fey and Steve Carell.
