It's wonderful to see that others remember this superb short film. To my knowledge this has only aired on (British) TV once and that was many years ago. I was lucky enough to tape it and kept it ever since, which means I can and do revel in it on a regular basis. Occasionally I meet people who saw it on that sole airing and have as much affection for it as I. Vas Blackwood and Eddie Osei are brothers on a magical night out. Vas Blackwood's character is sceptical that there is any magic around and cynical about everything else. I can't describe any more about this film without ruining its wonder; it's a film and needs to be seen. All I can really do is urge whoever owns the rights to get it released on DVD, and correct the previous reviewer: she wasn't dressed as a pack of cards, she was dressed as a Walkman that supplied the music for Vas Blackwood's "some enchanted evening" solo. The closing title music is especially good too, consisting of some beautiful African hornage.
