    nice

    Two quasi-astronauts. A farmer. Their mission. His way to trick them. Sheeps and Iceland images.

    Amix of Woody Allen style and absurde theater. Nice, touching in same measure, anti-American in some measure, good remind of simple facts , realistic in huge dose and just seductive , for landscapes and for the end. A good tool - the predictability.

    Short, just funny , reminding old jokes .
    Mozjoukine

    Funny quater hour short.

    OK 15min Short of Nasa Astronauts in training in Iceland falling foul of the local farmer. Funny. HQ keeps on telling them "Don't call me Huston!"

    Effective use of resources provides pro production values. The celebrity cast fit in too.
