Bobby Loves Mangos (1998)
Best Short Film... Ever.
This film, which I had the pleasure of seeing on a segment of short films on TV, was definately the best short film I have seen. Its goal was to get the viewer hooked instantly and tell an intruiging story, all in the 15 or 20 minutes of the film's length, and this was surely accomplished. In the film, the principal of an elementary school receives a warning from the future about a horrible accident, and it is up to him to try and stop it. The film sets its own rules and plays with our imaginations. With the film came an accompanying interview with its director, who seemed obviously proud of this incredible work, his first movie ever. I urge all who read this to find a way to see this great work of cinema, no matter what it takes. The future may depend on it...
