Definitely Long Enough
And as soon as I had that shot of the trains, I went home and dropped it into the cut, and went to bed with the satisfaction of having finished the first cut of the film. Here's what the whole thing looks like in the timeline:
Looking at it all scrunched up like that sort of gives you an idea as to the pacing. The total running time is one hour and forty seven minutes long, not counting the end-credits sequence that I've left out for the time being. I figure I've got plenty of room for trimming.

Now that's feature length!

Never fear, Donaghey! I'll figure out a way to get it down to 65 minutes.

All movies should be less than 70 minutes or over 3 hours. I trust you can come through on the former!

I agree! I always get excited when I see a feature with a 65 minute running time.

When do we get to see it here on the Western Slopes?

Next year is that plan, Michael, hopefully at one of San Francisco's two major festivals, although there's always the chance that I can arrange a 'sneak preview' beforehand... : )
