@TimeOutFilm I did 13 uninterrupted hours - 7.20pm till 8.20am, then dozed, watched mid-day then left at 12.15am. Amazing. #theclock

Only 4% phone battery left so signing off now but basically hoping to snooze a bit, catch the high noon shoot-outs then head home. #theclock

At this point even Tom Cruise in Eyes Wide Shut has gone to bed. In fact, he went hours ago... #theclock #zzzzzzz

Hopefully, at some point in the future, Christian Marclay's The Clock will be available on a 24 hour loop on YouTube. #theclock

Nic Cage movie count just went up by one again but I couldn't place the hair. Might have been Next. #theclock #cagecount4

Apologies to those of you waking up to wall-to-wall FilmFan spam in your Twitter feeds this morning... #theclock

Only 10% of phone battery left... #theclock

If you're in London today, I strongly recommend you catch some of Christian Marclay's The Clock at the Hayward Gallery. Entry = free. Pls RT

Things I never thought I'd see at 7.39am: Hugh Grant and Julianne Moore in a clip from 9 Months. #theclock

Sun Mar 06 2011 07:41:24 (GMT Standard Time) via Twitter for iPhone


There's no way I can do another 12 hours though... #theclock

Sun Mar 06 2011 07:33:15 (GMT Standard Time) via Twitter for iPhone


7.30am. I've now been watching The Clock for 12 hours straight. Still not bored. Still not slept. #theclock

Great shaving scenes montage at 7.23am. #theclock #christianmarclay

Sun Mar 06 2011 07:24:50 (GMT Standard Time) via Twitter for iPhone


Really getting a bit fed up of alarm clocks now... #theclock #christianmarclay

Sun Mar 06 2011 07:20:49 (GMT Standard Time) via Twitter for iPhone


In 20 minutes I will have been watching The Clock for 12 hours straight. No sleep. #theclock #hardcore #woo

Sun Mar 06 2011 07:11:21 (GMT Standard Time) via Twitter for iPhone


It's essentially a 24 hour long montage of film clips but each clip corresponds to the actual minute so film is also a functioning clock.

Sun Mar 06 2011 07:08:25 (GMT Standard Time) via Twitter for iPhone


7am weirdly dominated by cuckoo clocks and automated machinery. And shower scenes. #theclock #christianmarclay

Sun Mar 06 2011 07:04:24 (GMT Standard Time) via Twitter for iPhone


At this point, I'm starting to resent the people on screen who are still asleep... #theclock #elevenandahalfhoursandcounting

Sun Mar 06 2011 06:45:50 (GMT Standard Time) via Twitter for iPhone


Turner and Hooch at 6.11am! Yay! #theclock #turnerandlooch (@cassamlooch)

Sun Mar 06 2011 06:13:21 (GMT Standard Time) via Twitter for iPhone


6am is also lots of people being woken up by their alarm clocks but they're a bit happier about it than they were at 5am. #theclock

Sun Mar 06 2011 06:06:39 (GMT Standard Time) via Twitter for iPhone


Nic Cage movie count just went up by one too: Bring Out The Dead. #theclock #cagecount3 #cage

Sun Mar 06 2011 06:05:06 (GMT Standard Time) via Twitter for iPhone


It's Groundhog Day! #theclock #groundhogday

Sun Mar 06 2011 06:02:02 (GMT Standard Time) via Twitter for iPhone


Something really horrible involving a space-age metronome happens at 5.44am. You might want to look away. #theclock #ewww

Sun Mar 06 2011 05:47:40 (GMT Standard Time) via Twitter for iPhone


Coens count just went up by one. The Big Lebowski at 5.42am. #theclock #lebowski #coenscount4

Sun Mar 06 2011 05:44:20 (GMT Standard Time) via Twitter for iPhone


Ah. More Vertigo dream sequence (with music this time and much more of it) at 5.38am. #theclock #vertigo


Sun Mar 06 2011 05:42:06 (GMT Standard Time) via Twitter for iPhone

Charlie Sheen at 5.22am! #charliesheen #charles #theclock

Sun Mar 06 2011 05:24:39 (GMT Standard Time) via Twitter for iPhone


Still, I think that's my cue to investigate the all-night cafe... #theclock

Sun Mar 06 2011 05:22:29 (GMT Standard Time) via Twitter for iPhone


Vertigo dream sequence (parts of it, anyway - it was weirdly edited with something else and missing the music) at 5.18am! #theclock

Sun Mar 06 2011 05:21:29 (GMT Standard Time) via Twitter for iPhone


This is giving a whole new meaning to the idea of watching the sun come up... #theclock #christianmarclay #gettingabittirednowactually

Sun Mar 06 2011 05:14:56 (GMT Standard Time) via Twitter for iPhone


5am is mostly people being woken up by their alarm clocks and not liking it very much. #theclock #christianmarclay

Sun Mar 06 2011 05:04:55 (GMT Standard Time) via Twitter for iPhone


I think we're down to about 30 now. The sleepers next to me in the back row gave up and went home. #theclock #hardcore

Still here... #theclock #christianmarclay (@ Purcell Room at Queen Elizabeth Hall, Southbank Centre) http://4sq.com/gFL6ie

Might be an emu, actually. #theclock #notanostrich

Lots of creepy dream sequences / nightmares between 3 and 4am. But where's the one from Vertigo? #theclock #christianmarclay

Sun Mar 06 2011 03:33:41 (GMT Standard Time) via Twitter for iPhone


@EthanRunt Yes. Lots of people being kept awake by *neighbours* having sex though. #theclock

Retweeted by you


Whatever it is, he's obsessed with it because he thinks he'll die if he lets it run down. Anyone? #theclock

Sun Mar 06 2011 03:16:06 (GMT Standard Time) via Twitter for iPhone


Can someone please tell me the name of the movie with the old man who's obsessed with the clock? Could be a Twilight Zone episode? #theclock

Sun Mar 06 2011 03:13:47 (GMT Standard Time) via Twitter for iPhone


In contrast to 2am, 3am mostly people trying to sleep, being woken up and saying, "It's 3am - go back to sleep!"

Sun Mar 06 2011 03:11:06 (GMT Standard Time) via Twitter for iPhone


Drop Dead Fred! #theclock

Sun Mar 06 2011 03:09:20 (GMT Standard Time) via Twitter for iPhone


E.g. Tom Cruise in Eyes Wide Shut, Griffin Dunne in After Hours, Steve Martin and John Candy in Planes, Trains & Automobiles etc. #theclock

Another thing I like is the continual reappearances of characters from those films where everything happens in one night. #theclock

Sun Mar 06 2011 02:57:03 (GMT Standard Time) via Twitter for iPhone


The sound editing on The Clock is extraordinary. I love the way the sound often spills over from one scene to the next. #theclock

Sun Mar 06 2011 02:53:27 (GMT Standard Time) via Twitter for iPhone


That shit will wake you up, believe me... #theclock #christianmarclay #dali

Sun Mar 06 2011 02:38:30 (GMT Standard Time) via Twitter for iPhone


The Dali dream sequence from Hitchcock's Spellbound is used at 2.33am, more or less in its entirety. #theclock #christianmarclay #genius

There's about 50 of us here altogether. Some of them are asleep though. Phones on screen keep ringing and waking them up. #theclock

Sun Mar 06 2011 02:30:09 (GMT Standard Time) via Twitter for iPhone


Hmmm. If I go home before noon, I'll miss all the gunfights. Might have to rethink... #theclock #christianmarclay #highnoon

Sun Mar 06 2011 02:22:49 (GMT Standard Time) via Twitter for iPhone


Or sleeping. Lots of sleeping. Lots of sex too. Except for Will Ferrell in Melinda & Melinda. No 2am sex for Ferrell. #theclock

Sun Mar 06 2011 02:11:01 (GMT Standard Time) via Twitter for iPhone


2am largely dominated by people saying, "For God's sake, IT'S TWO O'CLOCK IN THE MORNING!" I know how they feel. #theclock #christianmarclay

Sun Mar 06 2011 02:08:49 (GMT Standard Time) via Twitter for iPhone

The three guys next to me all have costs over their heads and are trying to sleep. Lightweights. #theclock #15hourstogo

When I said Valentine's Day earlier I meant He's Just Not That Into You. #theclock #CORRECTION

Sun Mar 06 2011 01:35:21 (GMT Standard Time) via Twitter for iPhone



In all honesty, I don't think I'll make it through the full 24 hrs. But I feel I should at least do 12 hrs and stay up for Groundhog Day.

Sun Mar 06 2011 01:04:47 (GMT Standard Time) via Twitter for iPhone


I hadn't realised there were TV clips in it too. Spotted so far: Matlock, MacGyver, The X-Files, 24 and The Prisoner. #theclock

12:54 AM Mar 6th via Twitter for iPhone


Some very odd films included in #theclock. Like that awful Danny Dyer / Maggie Grace movie and Valentine's Day. #christianmarclay

Tweeting from the now empty back row of Christian Marclay's The Clock so no-one can see screen. It's amazing so far. Well worth seeing.
