sokurov's film "russian ark" is real time.
one continuous shot. a riot of stuff happens, but it's all about the museum in st petersburg and moving through it. amazing.
lots of experimental stuff would fit into this category: warhol's "sleep", michael snow's "wavelength" and "presents"--most performance based films would be at or close to real time, obviously.
one day narrative films are harder. thinking about it...good job so far...
