[MrCanganjo]

WGAT IS THE NAME OF THIS MOVIE?

[Woahhhjanelle]

I saw this movie in my history class...thought it was pretty funny. It's amazing how pol get into cyber arguements bout this conflict

[TheElefaunt]

The same politicians that cry out against the arizona laws

on mexicans and call it fascist praise Israel even though the crimes

israel is commiting with their settlements,

you can look it up yourself about how the jewish community

feels god has given them the land that is owned by Palestine,

their prime minister calls them roaches and they are beaten and killed at every corner just for where they live.

hitler's great success was turning the jews into the next generation of fascist.

[shaylahill455]

lmfao at the menorah

I never smiled so much as I did watching this movie. My cheeks hurt.

Hummmussssssss hutttttttt

[LegoArms34]

lmao we saw this in school and DAM no wonder it won the award(s) it did.

[whatawittyusername]

I watched this in global! my teacher is a lazy bastard.

[ikillhippies]

nuke israel

[g00dsir555]

israelis and arabs look alike

[Madblaster89]

HAHA you're funny.

[versatileproteus]

lol

[Mumusthereal]

Uh... that thing won the Oscar?

[Mystakaphoros]

I think it was actually just recognized at Sundance.

[psycowitz91]

it was a horrible movie it overgeneralized the conflict. perpetuates the stereotype that people only eat falafel, israelis and palestinians hate each other, and most israelis are haredim

[xevosrock]

omg it was made for comedic purposes. who shoved a stick up your ass gosh.

[thorntonleclay]

A parody is meant to overemphasize stereotypes to point out their insufficiency. That's why parody is used to criticize the society that perpetuates such views. . . while laughing! It's the pleasant way to reform.

[Kamikazebutterfly]

Does anyone know where I can rent this or see this online?

[Ghostbustermike]

The iTunes store has it, that's how I got it.

[fezmovies]

I think the message promoted in this movie needs to be promoted now more than ever.

[Kiwinites]

everyone should see this. it is probably one of the funniest things you'll ever see.

[Mystakaphoros]

There's a Lebanese restaurant in my town that serves rockin' hummus and falafel and baba ganoush-- but every time I go there, I get the Hummus Hut song stuck in my head.

[aan3]

Looks hilarous but on a serious note I don't think most women living under foreign occupation would fall head over heels for any guy in uniform no matter what country they're from...especially if the war is still raging on.

[allyjohn30]

Yes It is possible as many women fell for Nazi Soldiers in WW2.

[shaylahill455]

killjoy

[Mystakaphoros]

Um... don't Qassams count as weapons?

Though to be honest, there are a lot of very hot Arab women. So I'll give you that point.

[dago0109]

Whats the topic of that story?

[Mystakaphoros]

It's basically West Side Story, only instead of rival gangs, you have Israelis v. Palestinians. The Israelis want to build a wall, the Palestinians want to tear it down, and in the whole mess, two lovers from the different sides try to make peace.

[Omac1199]

Well seems none spotted Shakespeare's Romeo & juliet and for the Westies A West side story parody!

Nice, 17 mins of good humour

[afrodisiac1984]

ha isnt it offensive that the WBS logo is half in israeli colours half in palastinian?

[liongrl15]

omg i wanna see this really bad!

[umyasam]

west bank story

my moms friends brother made this

[afathy3]

what the name of this movie?

[googenshlagen]

wow fuck all of you. Why does anything involving ISrael have to turn into this huge debate? Why can't YOU all get along first? It's a damn movie! Just watch it and shut up!

[ghettogrl300]

I like West Side Story better. It's a classic!

[shorty1086112]

there is no reason to wish death upon each other. its a bloody musical people. and a good one night i add! :P

[shorty1086112]

its funny that this movie makes fun of how serious people get about the whole conflict going on in that region..... 

and then you read the comments that people have posted...

[lostaddict12]

That film is awesome! So funny! i saw it last night

[uofc57]

Such an awesome movie!

[blackeneddove]

West Bank Story was one of the greatest short films ever!! Much deserved the Oscar it received. I saw it before the Oscars at an Oscar Film Shorts presentation at the local library. I SO wish I could see it again! :-)

[annanimal6]

you can buy it from itunes for 2 bucks.

[blackeneddove]

Really? The whole film?? THanks! That's Awesome!!

[annanimal6]

yep! the whole film is really only 20 minutes. its a short film. enjoy! its pretty funny!

[Thomasmama]

I'm in film school and we watched this as part of our education. Though intimidated that this is the competition we are against. Nevertheless, this is THE best short film I've ever seen, and I'm very happy they won an Oscar. Happy too that Noureen DeWulf is up and coming.

[ohsweetavarice]

Man, I wanna watch the whole thing. Where can I?

[annanimal6]

you can buy it from itunes for 1.99

[LutherianGuard]

To those idiots who are posting links to innapropriate websites, please get a life. Kids visit this site too you know.

[Milkdudds92]

Hey, thanks for saying that, it's kind of disgusting, isn't it? It annoys me too.

[fsroor]

i want to see the full version plzzzzzzzzzz its funny and it has and nice msg :(

[aamersouria]

I strongly dissagree with that Agospy.Couldn't they have found a way to live along side the palestinians as brothers? it's a shame that after having experienced a halocaust and diaspora they turn around and create an appartheid, occupying state which terrorizes their cousin palestinians.

[fsroor]

i luv this movie i saw it on tv :) its funny :) i hope both sides live in peace achla :)

[uofc57]

He is obviously being sarcastic - chill out

[Islamization]

thats sooo fake.....Egyptian pharoh used to kill every jewish born boy and they used to take ur jewish ladies and you know why the used to take ur females.....lol

[peacedefender786]

I LOVE NOUREEN DEWULF

[elchasai]

hahaha looks fun im going to go rent this now. I am from a mixed family I can really relate.

[mahleen]

i wanna see this movie so bad!!

[Agospy]

What is your problem

[MOSSADAGENT666]

ahhh, I remember being a young recruit and conducting house raids and collecting the electric bills and water (ha ha!) bills from Palestinians at 3 or 4 in the morning. It was so fun harassing those families and shooting anyone who mouthed off! - I used to love going out on military raids and choosing which girls to arrest and take back to our sex-prisons... Now I sit behind a desk and plan false-flag ops on Gaza and Lebanon all day. - sigh... :( ahhhhh, the good ol days!...

[hably]

i wanna watch this film ):

[davethebrave]

YES!!

[myaser88]

Simple Swipes:

Kosher:Lawful

Halal: Lawful

Hummus: Humour

are you trying to say Halal is a joke?

Not 1 Arab/Muslim Producer! says it all

[davethebrave]

How did you get all that out of "YES!!"?

[stephrox26]

I saw this movie today and it was histerical!! Being a jew, i got so many of the jokes - it was soo funny to see!!

[marlowe2]

Yeah that's real historically accurate. There'd be no Maimonides without Islamic Imperialism and hell, there'd be no Judaism with Islamic Imperialism - unless you want to think that Christian Europe was some kind of Paradise.

[Darkstick27]

screw them both, good movie though

[mellymmmm121]

I cannot wait to see the whole film! I usually don't like musicals but this is one I am sure to love. The whole concept is really one we can all live by.

[madamewoselle]

This looks like a hoot. I can't wait! And everyone talking about how the middle east is stupid....just remember, that's where we got the word "alcohol."

[lmegna25]

This looks funny!!

[arabia23]

lol thTs hilarious, i gotta see this movie!

[RHINO6383]

After the west ban goes back to Jordan and the Gaza goes back to Egypt. Place them in notice to deal with the so called palestinian terrorists in their country. If attacks continue from their land into Israel, Israel will attack them. Perfect solution: Israel gets Peace, Egypt gets their land back, Jordan gets their land back and the so call palestinians get to live under fellow Arabs, problem solved.

[beverly555]

Just because Palestinians were not independent, this does not mean it was not their country. All over the world people are occupied, and they are still the rightful owners of the land. I think a better solution than yours is the "Israelis" go back to where ever they came from, Russia, Poland, Ethiopia, and give the Palestinians back their country. Problem solved.

[RHINO6383]

There never has been "Palestinians", They have never had a country that they ruled. Israel has a legitimate historical claim on the land and they were, by order of the UN, given that land from Occupied land after the fall of the ottoman empire. It's Israel no Palestine.... But, should they deside to stop rocketing Israel, Palestine can be a reality. The need to stop rocketing Israel, Renounce terror and Live in peace with Israel.

[Superpig702]

Uh, hello? Jews did not come from Russia or Poland. They came from the same place Arabs came from, the middle east, that's why there's a conflict. Honestly, maybe you should research a bit before making a tupid commment like that.

[beverly555]

Listen, swine. Christianity did originate in Palestine. But that does not give an Italian Catholic the right to proclaim Palestine as theirs. Nor does it give the British Protestant. The same goes true for the Jews. A Poland jews country is Poland. Can a Poland Catholic proclaim Palestine to be theirs because Christianity started there?

[Superpig702]

Israel doesn't only allow Jews, you know. They have plenty of Christians and Muslims.

[marlowe2]

No. A Polish Jew's country is NOT Poland. THe Polacks pretty much saw to that when they helped build and maintain Auschwitz. And it's ISRAEL you piece of shit. Always has been and always will be. And if the last 2000 years of history has taught us, it's that Jews do better when they don't listen to the "helpful advice" or "admonishments" of Christians - as pagan idolatry is vile in any form.

[beverly555]

So, marlowe, I suppose the Texan cult today should be given some other peoples country because they feel persecuted just like the jews felt persecuted. And lets see how long it will be "israel". Let's see how tough it is without america running to its aid. Hassan Nasrallah sure showed you.

[Agospy]

Actually, if you look at ancient history, you will find that that small strip of land was actually Jewish land, which was attacked by the Roman Emperor in 70 A.D. The reason why the Jews were scattered in Europe was because they were exiled. And in Europe they had plenty of persecution. I think that after all they've been through, that land is a fair trade to them.

[tastysalad]

does it ever occur to you that generations have been born there?

[PockyStix15]

This looks awesome! :D

[Phantomito]

Brilliant!

I hope you come up with more ideas like this to show the stupid politicians that two people who lived in peace for thousands of years can solve their problems and live in peace again until the end of time.

[druiz87]

i want to see this movie

[zetanik]

dude roffle we HAVE to see this movie

[hotmagma]

contact the jewish center in sao paolo.

[danenga]

And... release the film on youtube.

Here in Brasil we never gonna see this film. And we aprecciate if we can do this legally.

[mgarthoff]

I hope the movie's as good as I think it's going to be. Check out my own take on setting politics to music. Click on my name or search "Freedom" or "Freedom - better quality" Here's to making something enjoyable to watch and making a point at the same time. Cheers.

[ZACKOFALLTRADES]

the movie is not a solution, it's about hope. i really want to see it.

[DerFeldwebel]

Would you people just shut up? You morons are placing blame everywhere, even at THIS film, a comedy!

Yes, this film is just genius.

[JagdPanther101]

Oh my God. When this won the Oscar last night I wanted to see it SOOOO badly. This is absolutely GENIUS. :)

[mindbodydr]

anyone who uses a funny movie short to make a political comment shows the utter stupidity of his views

[elleelise]

someone obviously has a gigantic metal stick up their arse, and no sense of humor.

[InstantHot]

This movie is 18 minutes long and it is great. It it very funny

[luvedance21]

where can i watch this whole movie?? lol i wanna see it so bad!!

[devnull13]

You can get ifrom the iTunes store for $1.99.

[gloriousfiveyearplan]

I'm glad to see the Pete Sampras has finally tried his hand at acting. I think he has a bright future.

[drippingwhite]

wow, there's so much wrong with that post. First of all, in 67 7 arab nations tried to completely destroy israel and "drive the jews into the sea" Jerusalem was part of jordan, not "palestinian land" Th reason the percent of muslims went down was, CAUSE THERE WERE NO JEWS as jews weren't allowed to live there, now that it's israeli jews moved in.You and your stupid propoganda

[RHINO6383]

Thats right! Why negociate with people who never had a country. West bank was Jordanian, Gaza was Egyptian. Negociate with them and then turn it over to the Egyptians and Jordanians, people we have peace treaty's with. Then we can deal with them and cut the so called palestinians out of the equation. They dont want peace, the rockets they keep shooting into Israel proves that.

[Boricuaamada]

CAN WE JUST STOP MAKING THINGS SO DAMN POLITICAL!!! West Side Story was about the Puerto Ricans and Americans...i didn't get all defensive. can we just laugh at ourselves. we all need a breather from all the garbage the media feeds us. I'm not saying things in the middle east aren't serious, but it's good to take a break from that. even if it's a few minutes or seconds in this case. :0)

[Rebecca1219]

I am glad I tuned in to the first part of the Oscars... I would never have known about this movie, and now I can't wait to see it. Congrats on the Oscar win, too!

[MagicAngel101]

i agree

[aldog2007]

sounds funny, i love how its totally a comedy but those 2 or three ppl below are lie total asses

[viciouslikewhoa]

i want to see this movie. looks great.

[blackhawkLprince]

if you live anywhere in the western hemisphere you have no right to justify or criticise Isreal. N and S. America were stolen from the Natives by the "Europeans".

[airplayn]

There is a big difference from being anti Zionist as apposed to being Antisemitic. No past history justifies modern atrocity. Either recent genocide against Jews or repeated biblical genocides completed by historical Jews do not justify modern apartheid and attempted genocide. Israel needs to abide by ALL the UN resolutions, not just the ones THEY like.

To use Bernstein's original lyrics, "Life is OK in [Jerusalem], if you're a [Jew] in [Jerusalem]!"

[Madblaster6]

I wanna see so Bad!

[Linda4477]

lol mamabear8 ;) That was the best oscar speech i've heard, short, to the point and one that actually says something.

[hockeygirl01]

won an oscar! where and how can i see the whole thing? this sounds like a marvelous short!

[lewisdutton65]

Israel armed the PLO in the 90's which never happened in South Africa under Apartheid - the situation appears to be a bit more complicated than your ability to understand

[midnightcamel786]

Israel armed the PLO with what? A negligible militiary contributions is entirely irrelevant. Also, it wasn't Israel as the United States is the one that gives Israel all of its military aide. Take a class on the subject, you'll know more. I'm sorry, you prolly didn't go to college or go to some third tier shithole.

[drippingwhite]

actually israel makes most of it's own weapons, and with suchy a tiny country is the 7th largest military exporter in the world.

[midnightcamel786]

Oh yeah, with no US backing? What happened when the US INCREASED militiary munititions and weapons support during the Israeli DEFEAT in Lebanon? In the 1967 War, Israel launched a PRE-EMPTIVE ATTACK. Also, all the Isaeli conflicts were proxy wars between America and the Soviet clients (Arab nations).

[tastysalad]

if its the 6 day war you are trying to reffer to,they had the entire fucking arab league planning geonocide.AGAIN.

[myoeman]

yaaayy! looks great! grats to the oscar..

where can i see this movie?

[janalan]

yes yes, we all know they won the oscar. that's why i'm here XD

[dnewark100]

i'm looking too!

[clrb15]

CONGRATS!!! GREAT SPEECH by the director!!!

[blackhawkLprince]

won oscar for the best short action film

[midnightcamel786]

To the douchebag that previously posted regarding Islamic Imperialism, suck it. So what do you think about the Western Imperialistic motivations for the establishment of Israel? I'm sayin it out lived its strategic Cold War importance. Also, its very existence contradicts Jewish Theology.

[sweetbriargirl]

yay!!!

[nazmussadad]

bravo

[suplydinator]

sameee. who has the whole videooeodeod?!

[LogderverwirrtenUser]

GLUECKWUNSCH! Was das auch immer fuer ein Film sein mag, ich schau ihn mir an :>. Sieht gut aus xD!

Thanks for the tip. I've always wondered where to view these short films, and I think iTunes distribution is perfect (especially at $1.99 - it's a steal!).
