What is the longest movie ever made?

None of the above: it is a film called Cinematon.

Cinématon is a 152-hour long experimental film by French director Gérard Courant. It is considered to be the longest film ever released. Composed over 32 years from 1978 until 2010, it consists of a series of over 2290 silent vignettes, each 3 minutes and 25 seconds long, of various celebrities, artists, journalists and friends of the director, each doing whatever they want for the allotted time. Subjects of the film include directors Barbet Schroeder, Nagisa Oshima, Volker Schlöndorff, Ken Loach, Youssef Chahine, Wim Wenders, Joseph Losey, Jean-Luc Godard, Samuel Fuller and Terry Gilliam, chess grandmaster Joël Lautier, and actors Roberto Benigni, Stéphane Audran and Julie Delpy. Gilliam is featured eating a 100-franc note, while Fuller smokes a cigar. Courant's favourite subject was a 7 month-old baby. The film was screened in its entirety in Avignon in November, 2009 and was screened in Redondo Beach, CA on April 9th, 2010.

What is the longest movie ever made and how long is it?

Various long movies have been made purely for the sake of being long, like the 85 hour Cure For Insomnia. Given that it's just made up of bits of poetry recitals, rock concerts and pornography, most people wouldn't class it as a real film.

Edgar Reitz' excellent 15 hour 40 minute film Heimat was made to be shown on TV in episodes, but it has been shown in marathon cinema screenings as has Rainer Werner Fassbinder's acclaimed Berlin Alexanderplatz (15 hour 20 mins). Reitz has made two sequels: Heimat 2 runs 25 1/2 hours, Heimat 3 a mere 12.

Other long films are Christine Edzard's 6 hour film of "Little Dorrit" (starring Derek Jacobi and Alec Guinness), ~Abel Gance's "Napoleon" (7 1/2 hours),~ Claude Lanzmann's 9 1/2 hour "Holocaust documentary"~ Shoah and Masaki Kobayashi's "The Human Condition" (10 hours). All the films mentioned here (apart from Cure For Insomnia) are supposed to be well worth seeing, but i dunno how good they actaully are!
