Movie production records

Hello - I'd like to find out what movie holds the record for longest production time - to this, I mean, what movie took the longest to shoot from start of filming to end of filming. Thanks in advance! 130.86.12.208 (talk) 17:03, 8 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Boyhood (2014 film) might qualify. ←Baseball Bugs ^{What's up, Doc?} carrots→ 17:36, 8 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like The Other Side of the Wind is the grand champion. ←Baseball Bugs ^{What's up, Doc?} carrots→ 20:52, 8 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know. The OP specified time of filming. While The Other Side of the Wind went over 40 years to release, filming was completed in 6. I don't know if other movies took longer to film but less time to release, but it seems possible. User:Khajidha (talk) (contributions) 21:52, 8 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, for sure. There are a lot of movies on that list that are held up by post-production issues or distribution, but it does not necessarily specify by filming time. 130.86.12.208 (talk) 22:13, 8 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
