I'm not close to my Sister, my Father wasn't close to his siblings, but you remember the past and the past is the past, however sad or happy. You remember little things about relatives or friends even if you see them again and never talk - what Adam is saying is its better to leave things in the past - but you do wonder about those things you remember...Very poigniant, as is 'Brother' and 'Uncle'.
I love this video, it seems that most people are annoyed by the fact that the boy didnt approach his cousin in the story at the end, but i like it, it leaves a feeling of what happened, is he happy, does time change all??
This is excellent until the end when the narrator just seems like a dick. Why couldn't he go up and talk to his old friend instead of just wondering about how he smelled and keeping him at a distance, as if he was somehow better than him and his cart wheelin' ways.
@benkees You know, I think he doesn't go to his cousin because he wants to believe he's happy. Maybe he wants to save the "picture" he had of him. You know, when they were young. I think he (Adam) is sure that his cousin changed and he just wants to always remember the old friend he had. So he doesn't go there to make sure that he doesn't get another picture of him...
4 mins and a half thats all it took and strangely enough though this might seem like an exaggeration i feel as though i am a slightly better person having seen it
oh my. the best thing about this is, it's true. It isn't made up. Adam, you're a genius. I'm glad he's one of those directors who believes people like this, people with cerebral palsy, or who's diagnosed with something abnormal should be recognized more. & I'm Agoraphobic. Thank you Adam~
i think if you work with people with learning disabilities it would mean alot more. But it helps any one who doesn't to understand and maybe treat those with a disability more like a human being.
super vidio i love it did you do it all by yourself i mean is super its just brilliant and i know i am just going on and on now but this is as good as wallace and gromit or creature comforts you should take it up to massive companys and you will get really famous and it will be all thanks to me,one more timr brillliant film and very touching.1 more time,SUPER!
Great work ! And as always: the simple and plain little story are the best. A touching little story about something that won't change the world itself but the world of some people for sure - means: no robots or same old stickfas kicking the s*** out of ech other...
Beautiful and touching. Narrator did a good job too. Tried to watch it without sound but the narrators voice was still echoing... and what a beuatiful mood. But what about the two other films, somebody who commented asked for ?
