Two road construction workers fall out when a meteorite lands at their deserted intersection in this fabulous American black comedy. A FILMSshort Festival finalist. #comedy #shortfilm
Nobody seems to get the humor of the situation these 2 guys created for themselves. Thats what makes it a comedy. A METEORITE falls out of the sky!! Directing traffic in the middle of nowhere, Getting stabbed with a stop sign, Taking off his shirt and pants to drag the rock and ending up in his underwear with his boots on. (PRICELESS)
@feraxks it wasn't a meteorite. It was shit discharge from the plane from overhead. The "well, shit" line kept telling you that was exactly what it was.
1 Timothy 6:10 “For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows."
It’s dark humor with a layer of civil service/construction dynamics. Two bored existential working class people trapped in a pointless situation nearly escaped an external interruption. They then go on to create a fantasy of wealth and escape for it to be their division and demise.
It was a real one. This is the story of novice films makers needing money and stumbling upon a meteorite. It’s based on a true story. And they stole the meteorite from nasa to stay authentic.
Dark humor, but humor, nevertheless. At the end he was in another intersection in the middle of nowhere--go this way, go that way, go some other way--shit!
Lots of lessons learned here. Some dickhead instructed the bonehead to man a crossroad that wasn’t a crossroad which he should called bullshit on to begin with. Dumbo #1 . Gets there and should be able to tell for at least a mile a vehicle was coming before he stood up with the Stop Sign. Dumbo #2 Kid finds a Million dollars and disrespects his co worker Dumbo #3 Disrespected ck worker kills junior and has no plan to escape with the booty. Dumbo #4. Runs into the desert with the loot, no water, no food, no hope. Dumbo #5. Should have just went along with the kids offer. Best lesson though , don’t smoke, it makes you stupid.
The beginning started out like "Waiting for Godot" with rednecks. Then changed to "The Stranger" with rednecks. And ended with "To Build A Fire" with rednecks.
The person became greedy and the other stil did whant to share and add the end both did have nothing becus the man died becus of dry out in the heat of the sun and even hè whas able to share it with the person in the car hè choice to walk allone dam great vid
Any scientist would insist upon knowing exactly what conditions it was found and where it was from to begin verifying its worth before any price would be discussed.💜👿
It's called provenance and is always done on items of great value. One is very limited in one's potential buyers without provenance showing who originally owned it and every legitimate sale and purchase. There is still an extremely high number of priceless artworks in Germany inherited from parents and grandparents during and after the war. Some were stolen from their German possessor and taken to the Soviet Union. Many are in private collections around the world and never seen by anyone but their illegal possessors.
Don't get it. 60-40 split sounds right considering who dragged that thing out of hole while the other was uninterested. And things cascaded from there.
Plot didn't pan out. Why did the guy run off into the desert, with no water, food, or shade, with a 100 pound rock, when he could have gotten a ride, and explained that a cougar got the other guy? Anybody? Doesn't make sense, so it's just bad writing. Good production values, bad writing.
Was that supposed to be comedy?...a good film but no laughter at all...so how is it an award winning film...if it does not serve the purpose it was made for...
I was on the space poop train with a few other people who commented....swear tveas gonna be like a deep froze vacuum shit chunk from a space station or something....that kid was getting kinda annoying, so I probably would have also put a stop to it ....or should I say put a stop THROUGH it...lol...dad jokes..noice😂🎉..but srsly he mashed him up hard with that traffic sign..😮
First off, point me out if I’m wrong but this can’t be a comedy whatsoever... at least, there wasn’t any funny moment to laugh. The dialogues all way up til the ending was more like a drama stuff. Whatever! The video has all necessary elements to be qualified as a good short such as nice dialogues, stunning and enchanting atmosphere, great shots, convenient and smoothing background sound. The weakest and l failing point was the climax poorly executed which everyone has mentioned here in the comments... what a shame
