How long is Christopher Nolan’s Dunkirk, in minutes?

Christopher Nolan’s Dunkirk has a running time of 106 minutes.

Released in 2017, Dunkirk dramatizes the evacuation of Allied soldiers from the French port of Dunkirk during the Second World War. Its compact running time reflects the film’s tense, tightly edited structure rather than a broad historical survey.

Nolan divides the narrative into three linked viewpoints: land, sea, and air. These strands unfold over different time spans before converging around the evacuation. The film stars Fionn Whitehead, Tom Glynn-Carney, Jack Lowden, Harry Styles, Aneurin Barnard, James D’Arcy, Kenneth Branagh, Mark Rylance, and Tom Hardy.

Dunkirk was photographed by Hoyte van Hoytema and used 65 mm and IMAX film cameras. It received eight Academy Award nominations and won three, including Film Editing, Sound Editing, and Sound Mixing. Its length is often confused with longer Nolan films such as Interstellar and Oppenheimer.
