Films under 90 minutes
Great films you can watch in a single short sitting.
Some films don't ask much of your evening — and that's precisely their power. The titles here prove that under ninety minutes is room enough for a farm wife's marital frustration, a Russian landlord upending a borrowed mansion, a 1985 Hong Kong horror, and a documentary about two Venetian brothers who built a coastal village over sixty years. Short running times sharpen decisions: every scene has to earn its place. Pull one up whenever you have an hour to spare and want something genuinely complete.

Frequently asked
Are films under 90 minutes actually worth watching, or are they just short?
Length is no measure of depth. Short films impose discipline — every choice has to earn its place. Several picks here, including Tanshin funin: Niizuma no himitsu and Porto Rotondo. The Invented Village, carry complete stories within their brief running time.
Where should I start with this collection?
For something light, The Farmer's Bride Requires Care! Part 2 is a comedy-drama about marital frustration. For something more sombre, Tanshin funin: Niizuma no himitsu is a quiet drama about loneliness and an affair.
Is there a documentary in this collection, or is it all fiction?
Porto Rotondo. The Invented Village is the one documentary here, tracing the real sixty-year founding history of a coastal locality built by two Venetian brothers — a complete non-fiction story in under ninety minutes.
