Incorrect Running Time - how frequent are updates?

I was wondering how often information is updated. Doesn't seem to be realtime, because an incorrect answer keeps getting returned in some cases. As an example, this title page:
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1100051/
Has a running time of 1 hour, 43 minutes. This should be 103 minutes total, but the API keeps returning 109. Where does the 109 come from, and how often is new information updated?

Hello,
IMDb actually return 109 minutes in the data source for Bereavement movie. You may download the movie and confirm it on your own, here is another screenshot

Regards.
The screenshot you provided is from a Google search, and Google is using the information provided from Wikipedia. In the two results below that on the search page, you can see the Wikipedia result is first, and lists 109 as the running time in minutes. The IMDb result, which is below that, says 1 hour, 43 minutes (which is 103 minutes). Since this is an IMDb API, the result should be what IMDb says, not what other sources say.
Hello,
Our data is live and synced with the official database. You would believe me that the site has front end data binding issue with its own data. When the site load, the data source contains several titles information, it just mis-use the duration of another title. You may check the screenshot https://prnt.sc/2241mii
