  • I won't say whats already been said, but it's movies like these that give me hope for some type of future in film. This movie was amazing, and I wish mainstream America could put down the explosions, gorgeous vampires, and fighting robots to experience it. For another inspiring film coming out, check out "The Lie" it looks pretty sweet.

  • Ya en DVD en España! Aaron Katz protagoniza el 2º volumen Young American Filmmakers con sus dos primeras obras! Y también en CTK y en Filmin! Pa' no perderselo!

  • Sigh. This sort of stuff doesn't happen in real life. Not very believable....

  • @whothennow24 second that. funny how a movie trying to be real fails as soon as its setup.

  • Is this satire?

  • Without exaggeration, this is my favorite film of all time - I hope there are other people out there who enjoyed it as much as I did. Reshaped my paradigm of relationships and human interaction, as well as just being visually and aurally mesmerizing, and finally being topped off by Keegan DeWitts amazing score. Can't wait for Cold Weather. By they way can you believe this was made for $2.5k?

  • Anyone know the piano song played during the trailer (specifically near the end)?

    Thanks

  • this movie would be so much better with porn. even just having the two main "characters" simply watching porn on their laptop would considerably improve this "film".

  • @TheShannon76 LOL

  • Best movies this year:

    Monsters

    Everybody else

    Carlos

    Enter the void

    Wild grass

    Catfish(documentary)

    Buried

  • I am willing to bet that big time hollywood actors are not more talented than the amateurs in this sorry excuse of a movie, but are capable of generating a far more greater emotional response in the audience.

  • and that would have been much much much more interesting and engaging than this p.o.s. This is what I call indie excess cinema, where the director is much more focused on how indie,quirky and off beat they can be, instead of telling a good fucking story. Don't even get me started on those dumb enough to try and compare this to the great works of one Mr.Richard Linklatter/

  • God, this has to be one of the most boring fucking things I have ever seen. Yes I have seen this p.o.s movie like 4 times. What sucks about it? Everything. But for starters, let's start with there is no real plot, no character development, no story arches. If you've ever wanted to see a movie about people hanging out, this is it. I mean, sitting on a front porch is the feeling this p.o.s produces. They could have gone to any bar or restauraunt in NYC and just interviewd people about whatever,

  • Do you live around here?

    ...uh...In a subway station..

  • This is a movie about a guy who's standing in a hallway until some vulnerable runaway offers him her security. After discovering that they both can't think of anything interesting to do, they race. Watch to find out who wins!

    Featuring a soundtrack by a kid who probably mispronounces Erik Satie.

  • Very sweet film. The monologue by Sarah Hellman late in the film is fantastic. So many unpredictable non-cliched scenes. Need more filmmaking like this.

  • It's another example on a weird way to meet someone that you can share excellent time with. Great movie to watch.

  • what is the name of the background song in this trailer?

  • Aww, so adorable. I loved this film! :)

  • It'd be funny if he was actually a serial killer and then he butchered her at the end. What if one of these mumblecore characters met up with Ted Bundy? That would be pretty ... I don't know, hilarious?

  • Well in that case, at least there would actually be something happening in this movie, as morbid and fucked up as that is.

  • I LOVE this film!

  • u know what i hate? "indie" films with big time hollwood actors.

    Hate it.

  • true. hate it too.. =)

  • why? i don't get it

  • why do you hate it? it's great. it challenges them. better than beafed up hollywood productions with genereic, stereotypical roles they get type-casted into.

  • @gravyfunky Like Woody Allen films.

  • whats the name of the song in the movie that they both play? message me answer pleaze?

  • This movie is mumblecore at it's best: normal but interesting people having normal but interesting conversations.

    It's a very relaxing experience.

  • more like boringasscore with people talking about boring ass shit and doing nothing.

  • This movie is awesome, It's sad more films like these arent respected enough, fuck all that stupid transformers bullshit, films like these actually have heart, emotion, and talent!

  • I know Michael Bay, director of Transformers, is all about action and hot girls YAWN!

  • Transformers may have been a big, dumb, loud cgi fest with bad dialouge and giant robots beating each other up, but hey, at least there was an actual story there and something happened in the movie. And unlike this p.o.s, transformers actualy got pretty good reviews. And no, no amount of bitching from the likes of you will change that people would rather watch something good and entertaining like transformers, instead of b.s like this.

  • Also, and answer me this please, why is it when you like something like this, as bad as it is, you seem to have this knee jerk reaction to tear apart Michael Bay/Transformers/Blockbuster type of movies. Can't you come up with something more original or different and not just go along with the indie film snob elitist types? and I bet you're the type of person who claims to think for themselves as they scorn stuff like transformers and people who watch them, all the while you do and watch what

  • your fellow film snob elitist freinds do, right? Did I strike a nerve there?

  • Oh yeah. This has so much "heart,emotion,and talent", I am not only being sarcastic, but using those terms very,very lightly in relation to this. Newsflash, something like transformers produces more emotion and reaction in people than this p.o.s.

  • How are these types of movie marketed?  Do they find their audiences?

  • i walked away, taking everything. wonderful movie.

  • such a sweet movie :)

  • "the new lost generation" suck my dick

  • THE LOST GENERATION HAHAHAHA

  • I don't like the sometimes improvisation and sometimes acting.

  • I really admire this whole new "style" of film making... (hence it is not worthless)but it's completely at the wrong spectrum. frustrating and exciting. this is more of a provoked documentary... I'm never completely suspended.

  • Erin Fisher is hot, she need to be in more movies.

  • If you want high-speed chases and explosions, this is not the film for you. If you are interested in an intimate look at two real people building a relationship and a sensitive view of Brooklyn rarely seen check this out. Artfully executed!

  • I fell asleep twice during the trailer. I am narcoleptic but still.

  • i liked it, the lead characters connections were good.. very realistic too probably would actually happen if that situation ever happened

  • i liked it better when it was directed by sofia coppola and was called 'lost in translation.'

  • best movie 2008.

  • He can`t act!

  • Can i just ask: what is it about this movie that people like so much? i thought the film-making was terrible. I'm curious to hear other people's points of view.

  • agreed. terrible.

  • what i liked is just seeing the relationship grow between two strangers.

  • because some people are idiots and/or have awful taste. simple as that.

  • I have an urge to watch this now.

  • its from 2007

  • aw, I wanna see this!

  • The Acting is Par Excellence in this indie gem of a movie.Very exceptional and rare to see authencity so thorughly convincing on screen nowadays.Hope to see more "mumblecore"movies hit the scene!

  • I can name probably 20 or so indie flix with far,far better acting and overall far,far better everything.

  • Wonderful. x

  • best film of 2008.

  • Cool movie...I want the score

  • so good! i watched this last night after having recorded it off film4.

  • 真他娘的好電影。用無與倫比 來形容。

    愛死

  • Great movie!!!

  • Beautiful, Original, GRGS!!

    I Loved Music, PErformance, Photography

    everything.

    thanks Aaron Katz

  • the trailer makes it look amazing, but from what I've heard it's actually really yawn. I'll probably end up watching it anyway.

  • this film is amazing

  • movie looks good, but that austin chronicle quote "terrance malick film for the new lost generation" makes me want to hang myself

  • this is such a beautiful film. i love it.

  • amazing.

    simply amazing.

  • Yeah, this movie is solid.

  • Yeah, I just watched this. Fucking GREAT! Next week I'm rentin' Dance Party, USA. Thanks for making movies worth watching.

  • fucking brilliant.

    just brilliant.

  • looks fantastic. anyone know when/if a release?

  • one of the best movies i´ve seen... simple.. real...wonderfull

  • beautiful. this trailer could make me cry.

  • wow. looks interesting. reminds me of before sunrise.

  • Excellent cinematography, looks like an impressive film. Go Indies! :-)

    (DeadflyOrkestra: yeah, it's definitely video and probably DV. There's a smear in the in the backlit shot that only happens with CCD sensors. Most recent HDVs use CMOS sensors which don't do this.)

  • An absolute gem of a film. It really really is something special. Aaron Katz is an emerging talent that studios should take note of as is Erin Fisher and Cris Lankenbau who are just simply sublime and romantically graceful actors. I have just got my hands on the DVD. Well worth it. A truly honest, affectionate, heart-warming film. Five stars

  • I loved this movie. Just finished watching it.

    8/10

  • Even though the video seems so simple and a little underbudget, the director has captured something awesome. The soundtrack brings it home.

  • who is the artist and whats the name of the track?

  • just uploaded this to my video blog, check it out from my profile website

  • That looks so good. Availible on dvd ever?

  • I just saw the movie tonight. I loved it! Especially the ending when a killer clown runs into the subway car and devours them both! Whole! Fucking awesome!

    (just kidding about the killer clown. It was actually a chihuahua in a tutu.)

    But seriously, really beautiful work.

  • lmao

  • beautiful stuff - hopefully this shows in New Zealand.

    Was it shot on HD or DV?

    Please correct me if I am wrong

  • Magnifique ! The trailer is very romantic and sweet, I would like see the film ! I don't speak very quite English, but in french, I could describe my feelings more precisely. My directing style (images, rythm...) looks like yours and I would like talk with you about cinema, art, etc etc. I hope you will send me a commentary here. I can't let my email on youtube, it's impossible. May be I'll show you some images from my films...

    Love Quiet City,

    a French. ;-)
