Lost at Sea

Loved this film!
This was really fun to watch, several times. I could relate to the "Murphy's filmlaws", you nailed the running out of light bit and the actor taking off. And the guy playing "Elliot" did a very fine job. Nothing bad to say about the technical bit either.

Last, I can't go without mentioning the mustachebonanza, that rocked my boat.

A fine piece of laidback comedy!
 
Laughs from beginning to end. Favs were the mustache and the couch. Great script, actors, setting, and most of all, great execution. Nothing at all to nitpick about. Loved it. Thanks guys!
 
In the very first shot I thought "damn another short with no sense of pace"... but it turns out the pacing throughout is perfect. I haven't seen that in many entries. Pacing is where indi-films always get it wrong... but not here.

It's just long enough to set up the joke, each time.

I love how little the other actor cares about any of it. (that makes me laugh out loud and it's been days since I last watched this)... on the "... sent.. you"... then the "pshhhhh... lost it."

C'mon now... pure buttah.
 
As the first round ends I just have to say how proud I am of Vermont's representation in this festival. All different but very solid films. Is that a possible future collaboration I smell? I think it is... I think it is.
 
word. this is fun.

Yuuup. Agreed: Vermont is in it to win it.
But alas, Spear 670, we're headed to L.A. in June...
we were THIS close.

NNNNOOOOOO! :crybaby:

Well. I know you'll be back. It took me 10 years to figure out that it is just like VT, except with every dial turned down to CRAP-SUCK (ok, maybe the filmmaking market is big, but is it really worth it?).
 
Here's one last still -- from the photo session for the poster:

So we had Racki & Will (the two actors) pose for all of these photos at the pier in Santa Monica.
We shoot...oh...20 photos with my old canon AE-1 35mm camera, only to realize: The film wasn't loaded right!
So here's Will in a sailor suit, Racki wearing a turtle neck and some tight-ass slacks, everyone is watching by now, and we need to shoot a whole new roll of film.

Troopers, they are. And good friends.
 
In my Top 10 for sure! Comedies should make people laugh...this one definitely did that for me!

Had my wife watch this one with me tonight, she LOVED it. More laugh out loud moments than I could count. Thanks again for making this one!
 
Great work here, really. I'm glad to see a number of comedies make the top 10, more than that I'm glad to see comedies done well. Rock on guys.
 
thanks for the congratulatory remarks fellas -- this is FUN.
i'm wishing there was more **** to watch.

Just looking at the forums:
i wonder how many times the word "congrats" was typed today.
Has to be in the hundreds?

Has "congrats" completely replaced "congratulations" in the English language?
The same way that "quotes" has replaced "quotations."
I don't think it's bad or anything -- just interesting.

Lovin' this. So glad this little motion picture is getting some attention.
I can't wait to move out to LA permanently and keep making shorts with these guys.
