My Life Is a Movie

I was lucky enough to catch this short on Video i and it had me in stitches. Interspersing over-the-top acting, male chauvinist bravado and quirky, sometimes vulgar musical numbers, this is quite possibly one of the most funny satires of Hollywood and the desire to be a celebrity. It breaks so many rules and as a short, thankfully, it never bogs down or takes itself seriously. The re-edit of a sequence involving multiple decapitations and four-letter obscenities after a bad test screening was hilarious. Track this one down if you can.

This short film was pretty darn good. I had seen a few other films done by these guys and was eagerly anticipating what they would do next. This film uses a sharp comic wit to tell the story of an average joe named Tucker while incorporating filmmaking humor at the same time.

The main character, Tucker, finds his life to be a movie and as the move progresses, he learns how much power over his own life he truly has. Since the film is a short, I hesitate to give away any of the story however I encourage you to stay for the credits in order to hear the funniest rendition of "My favorite Things" that I have ever heard.

Like "Arrowhead Beer" and "Xtreme Basketball Association" the creative humor and comic timing is once again showcased. I look forward to the next peice of work done by these guys.

I can honestly say that this was a hilarious short film. I saw it at a film festival in L.A. It was thrown in with a bunch of boring, confusing films that were hard to make sense of. This movie may not have had anything important to get across to its viewers, but it was damn funny and great entertainment. I laughed the whole way through.
