It has to do with selling to the secondary markets, too.

I'm guessing it's also an effort to keep the story tightly focused and relevant ~ some do it better than others ~

"Allowable film length" sometimes has to do with the actual amount of film stock that would have to be used to make copies for distribution. There have been times in the history of cinema when film stock supplies were low and the price high. A studio could have a few flops and then struggle to finance the distribution of the next "big hit". The more they trim, the less it costs.

Also has to do with theater scheduling. They want to maximize the number of showings in a day.


Film? They still use that stuff?
