witty comedy short, 30 December 2005
9/10
Author: (bwebb31) from United States

This movie was brilliant. I particularly enjoyed the on-screen presence of Ms. Allison Hendrix. I feel fame and fortune shall be bestowed upon her in no time at all. The plot to this short intrigued me greatly. Where did the writers come up with this unique idea? Perhaps their motivation came from the classically trained actor Peter O'Toole. He is truly one of the greats. My only criticism of the short is contained in the film's denouement. Where do the characters go from here? Why? I guess we'll never know. I do not know of any other films by these writers. If anyone else out there reads this please let me know. I shall be anxiously awaiting future productions from this group.
