I have a ton of books I could list.

I doubt anyone cares about Mrs. Dalloway though.

^^Wait nevermind. The Hours was a book "remake" of Mrs. Dalloway that got made into a movie.

If you include the deleted Jitterbug scene, then it's debatable. Also, it takes place in one dream sequence, throwing in another monkey wrench.

^^^ are you sure about Primer? I seem to recall it taking place over several days - even w/o the time-traveling element.

I believe he is joking, much like the individual who posted 2001: A Space Odyssey.

Good call on Halloween!

Not so much on the Shining. Although it would be awesome if he descended into utter madness in only one day.

deliverance isn't in one day either. Pretty sure it's 2-3 days.

Conair isn't in one day either, the first 10-15 minutes covers the fight, the sentencing, and some of his time in prison staying out of trouble and exchanging letters. Although, the brunt of it is. - maybe that's why you have the question mark. - but yeah, it doesn't follow the OP.

Timecrimes

How much time passes in Cube?

I was going to say Clerks II, but the scene at the end breaks it. Same with Tron.

^ The scene at the end is presumably much later. I doubt they'd make a zombie game show the same day.
