Walkshort

This is a fast, clever ten minutes of fun with a nice ending. Written and performed by just two men in multiple roles, all the action takes place on Auckland's K-Road. There's very little that is innovative and the filming itself is little more than adequate but the movie doesn't need to sustain over any length of time so this really doesn't matter.

The title is something of a play on words as 'walk shorts' are those awful shorts that NZ businessmen wear with long socks instead of proper trousers, on hot days. Along with safari suits, they were one of the 1970s worst fashion statements. I believe Dan McGlashan went on to front the fabulous Mutton Birds.
