While Scorsese has not directly addressed the intermission (or lack thereof), he defended the long runtime of “Killers of the Flower Moon” in an interview with the Hindustan Times, saying, “People say it’s three hours, but come on, you can sit in front of the TV and watch something for five hours.”>

Sure, I can sit and binge for 5 hours. But you know what I’m doing while binging? Pausing what I’m watching to get up and use the restroom, or replenish my drink and snacks.

I’m not sitting through a movie that’s 3hrs and 26 mins without using the restroom. That’s insane.
