I mean, I'll definitely give this one some props for being pretty powerful, while at the same time being really short. However, short films (unless their Keaton comedy shorts) never really did anything for me. I'll look forward to "Scorpio Rising".Andrew D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13875921908336809524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9031921900753703734.post-7928369154032429162010-12-06T03:22:16.980-05:002010-12-06T03:22:16.980-05:00The reason people think this film is important is ...The reason people think this film is important is because of the use of still photographs with a voiceover narration.

I believe "Sunless" is also streaming. I agree...good for 30 mins., but I just never really could get into short films.Andrew D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13875921908336809524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9031921900753703734.post-73394829649001548652010-11-29T02:59:08.636-05:002010-11-29T02:59:08.636-05:00An intriguing little oddity this one wasn't it...An intriguing little oddity this one wasn't it? (Did you get 'Sunless' on the same disk?). Yet again something to thank 'The List' for, as I'd never have bothered with it other wise, but was glad I did.
