Totally absurd....and not exactly my cup of tea
planktonrules27 May 2008
Warning: Spoilers
This is a very odd film that reportedly was made in 48 hours for some contest to see what young film makers could do given this time limit. Given this serious limitation, the end result is quite good--though it isn't a type film I particularly enjoyed.

The film consists of a young couple arguing constantly while on their way to a party. Both are very savage in their biting remarks. However, and this makes this film an interesting example of absurdism, when they get out to look in the trunk there is a body there. Instead of commenting on the dead person, they argue that they should have gotten a bigger car with a bigger trunk--and just continue arguing and never discussing the body! This is very odd and meant to shock. This black comedy didn't do a lot for me but I have got to respect that they did this so quickly.

By the way, you may be turned off my how savagely they argue as well as their very colorful language. Just keep this in mind.

What a great short film!

Holy cow! This short film, part of the 48 hour film challenge, is absolutely amazing! The acting talents of Caroline Whiteway and Tom Wotner are second to none. I think these two young talents are ones to watch. Caroline Whiteway is absolutely brilliant in this film. She deserves a frigging Oscar. I think that this film displays the quality and content that most short films should display and should have been premiered at the Canne Film Festival. In viewing this film, I realised the shear importance of having great quality female actors in lead roles. It is of the utmost importance to display young, relatively unknown talent in such endeavours. I was intrinsically impressed with this film. Well done to the actors and film makers.
