It depends on what you consider a movie.

_Berlin Alexanderplaz_ was a German television miniseries, which ran eighteen-and-a-half hours; it was shown in some movie theatres in the United States. (The short version runs fifteen-and-a-half hours.) Does that qualify it as a movie?

_The Lord Of The Rings_ trilogy did run once as an all-day marathon, essentially running as one movie. That would be thirteen-and-a-half hours. It was also shot all at once, and divided into the three movies for release. It was tied for the longest movie shooting schedule, with _Apocolypse Now_. _The Lord Of The Rings_ trilogy played in several commercial theatres, so if that is your threshhold, then it would qualify as the longest film.

As for the shortest, there are plenty of contenders. There was a movie called _The Critic_, released in 1963. It was an early computer-animated film, of the variety in which the computer makes random animated patterns, and there is some soft-sounding music on the soundtrack. About a minute into the film, a voice comes on the soundtrack with comments like, "What the hell is this?. . . I paid four dollars to see this?. . .It must be some sort of symbolism. I think it's symbolic of junk. . . .I don't know much about psychoanalysis, but I'd say this is a dirty picture." The movie runs about four minutes, and the voice of the disgruntled audience member is supplied by the writer of the movie, Mel Brooks. It won a 1964 Oscar for best animated short subject.

i don't know I wonder too

The longest was approximately 4 hours (238 minutes), it was Gone With The Wind.

The shortest, I don't know...

"Squaw Man" in 1913 is the shortest movie (74 minutes long), and "The Cure for Insomnia" in 1987 is the longest (85 hours long!)

The longest was the film was "The Cure For Insomnia" which was 85 hours long and the shortest film was the first ever movie made and it was called "The Garden Scene" and it was only 2 seconds long... how ever there will be a movie that still is in current production that will only be 1 second long and a further 90 mins showing the documentary of how director Nirvan Mullick made this 1 second movie.

Longest Movie Ever:
Movie title: The Burning of the Red Lotus Temple
Director: Zhang Sichuan
Country: China
Length: 27 hours
Year: 1928

The shortest:
The 1 Second Film is a 70mm animated film that's just a second long. Nirvan Mullick is directing this world's shortest movie but anyone can become a producer of the film.
