When I was younger, I was like a lot of other film snobs- I believed that longer films were more "artistic". I think this was because a lot of Hollywood tripe is actually pretty short. Eventually, though, I realized that extreme length is often a function of an editor not doing a good job or someone in the production crew being too in love with his/her work to leave it on the cutting room floor. I just eventually saw enough art flicks to not be wooed by pretention and gimmicks. Now, I love and praise anyone who can pack their entire point in to a small package, and my favorite format by far is the short. It's like the difference between reading Sartre and Camus. Sartre writes an imponderable 500-page tome that carries the same point that Camus makes in a paragraph.
