      Short and sweet

      This is the kind of short film that they don't make anymore. There's nothing pretentious or overdone about it, and the short format is just enough to get the job done.

      Australians will find some familiar faces among the cast, many of whom also contributed to the gags.

      I saw this late night on SBS's short movie programme, "Eat Carpet". Fortunately I had the VCR running, and "Tennis Elbow" became one of our favourites, along with shorts like "Tripe" and "The Magic Portal".

      "Tennis Elbow" is a great collection of gags, strung together by a farcical, if thin, plot. It's low budget and low grade, but a bundle of fun.
