"Out 1" is a legend that’s finally available to see in theaters…if you dare. It will take you four nights to see Out 1 in its monolithic, uncut entirety at its run in Brooklyn this month. Four dedicated evenings or, if you’re feeling hardy, most of a weekend.
Out 1 is one of the longest movies ever made — almost certainly the longest in terms of movies that tell a scripted story and that aren’t intended to be sampled while playing on the wall of a gallery. It’s a 775-minute beast, divvied up into eight sections that are each around the length of a regular feature. In the time it takes to watch Out 1, you could see the entire Lord of the Rings trilogy in its bloatiest extended editions. You could binge all of Season 1 of Orange Is the New Black. You could say fuck it and take a flight from New York to Hawaii in order to live out the rest of your days as a dangerous unqualified scuba instructor.
