What was the first film to have a running time of approximately 2 hours?  The earliest one I know of is _The Fairylogue and Radio-Plays_ (1908), which no longer exists.  It was a presentation that ran about 3 hours, 2 of which was film.  Are there any earlier than this?

"In today's world, we're always forced to do what is insisted by others.  But why should money determine what we do in life... or what we are... or what we become?  Even the rapport of our true relationships?"--Jean-Luc Godard, _Le Mépris_.
