The problem with real time in Nick of Time is that there's so many
separate stories, conventional editing and even a fantasy sequence that
the gimmick (and that's what it is) of real time is made irrelevant.
It probably would have occured to few people watching it that the film
was supposed to be in real time if we hadn't been told that before
hand.
