The Girl on the Train
I completely agree about Ted Chung's A Thousand Words, a five-minute dialogue-free short that was posted on Vimeo four days ago. It's an elegant, concise and very affecting portrait of big-city loneliness and little instant connections that go "ping" and are gone seconds later. The emotions are halting, delicate, true. Beautiful piano score.
A Thousand Words from Ted Chung on Vimeo.
The HE reader who sent it along (i.e., "Paisley Merriweather") is calling it an "absolutely phenomenal" short "that blows away any of the shorts shown at Sundance this year. Chung, working with no resources, could be the next Cuaron or Soderbergh." The short is starting to blow up all across the web -- over 7,000 views in 3 days.

Paisley Merriweather is the nom de guerre of one Theodore Chung.
Sorry. I had to.

This exact same thing happened to me a couple of years ago when I was living in San Francisco. There was this girl on the train and I couldn't stop looking at her because she was totally freaking hot. She got off at Market and so did I. I started to follow her as she was walking towards Noe Valley and at some point she must've noticed that I was following her because she started to run. I didn't run after her. I just screamed that I was sorry for scaring her and when I got home I masturbated a couple of times to thought of her and I hanging off the Golden Gate, doing it from behind. Her behind me, not the other way around. After that I took a shower and ate a Dove Bar. What a night. What a girl. Wow.

Well done, but how much cooler would this have been had he walked into her apartment and instead of a painter, found her mutilated corpse just before the cops arrive and arrest him for a murder he didn't commit?
You know you were all thinking the same thing.

LAZARUS!!!!!!!!! COME ON!!!!!!!*
*maybe I thought that a tiny bit.
I thought the best execution was the sound. The sound was very well done- the music was good, but I just mean the ambient sounds.

she could be having sex with a guy in a bear costume. And it turns out to be his twin brother.

Great stuff, and the 4+ minutes just flew by... but a part of me was almost expecting a logo for a camera company to pop up at the end.

For a brief moment when I saw "I'll miss you Nasim," I thought it said: "I'll miss you Nazism"...
