The Cart Boy (1995)
Great Short
9 November 2009
This is a great short from the Trailer Park Boys gang. This was made five years prior to the series so the characters are not quite the same as the series (names and roles). Mike Smith stars as the cart boy, while his cat is named Bubbles. In the series Mike Smith is "Bubbles" and he has a plethora of "kitties" which are a high priority in his unusual life, living in a utility shed. The two security guards in the short, are actually Ricky and Julian in the series, and both are small time criminals looking to make a fast buck and retire (Freedom 35). It is actually better to see The Cart Boy after you are familiar with the series to better understand the character development, but all in all, a great short film.
