The new Martin Scorsese movie is three hours and twenty-six minutes long. It’s one that he meticulously shotlisted <\/a>and edited with Thelma Schoonmaker to find the right pacing and storytelling. He even released a companion list of all the films that inspired him<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Still, despite being the greatest living filmmaker and an auteur by which many others are measured, a few movie theaters have taken matters into their own hands and have been adding an intermission to his latest film. <\/p>\n

Variety is reporting <\/a>that UCI Cinemas, which has around 8- theaters in Europe, had added a “six-minute interval towards the middle of the film” so patrons could take a break. they mercifully did not add that to their IMAX showings. The Vue, which is a U.K.-based theater chain, as well as The Movies Haarlemmerdijkm, which is a theater in Amsterdam, also showed the movie with a break. And so did The Lyric in Fort Collins, Colorado. <\/p>\n

Paramount, who produced the movie with Apple, found out what the Lyric was doing and forced them to stop. <\/p>\n

Editor of the film, Thelma Schoonmaker, said in an interview<\/a> with The Standard, “I understand that somebody’s running it with an intermission, which is not right. That’s a violation, so I have to find out about it.”<\/p>\n

What’s your take on all this? Should theaters be allowed to add intermissions if they think it will drive sales, or should movies be shown the way directors intended? <\/p>\n

Personally, I thought the movie was paced exceptionally and didn’t notice the run time. <\/p>\n

Let me know what you think in the comments. <\/p>\n
