Congratulations on your effort to capture Camus' Stranger. We are all strangers in the face of existence. "I will meet there jeers with a silent scream of execration".
yeah, the first half was excellent, but not the prison thing... i somehow imagined it a lot gloomier and smaller... i know, u probably didnt have access to a prison cell, but still. oh and the shooting scene was also a bit diff from what i imagined... but still, good job guys!
i really liked it at first,the first song and your monotone voice did a good job of setting the mood, but then the fast motion stuff did a good job of breaking that mood.......and i have to say the second half kinda sucked all around and its very much a pity that you did not end the video with the last words of the book,"all that remained to hope was that on the day of my execution there should be a huge crowd of spectators and that they should greet me with cries of hate"

I HATE YOU. DONT QUIT YOUR DAYJOB (SCHOOL). FUCK YOU!!!! That one would not have made it even as a karaoke video! Absurd, banal, grotesque. Simply makes me racist!! Dont ever film anything ever again. ever.
i also wanna ask how you got the courthouse to yourself, as well as that outfit? you must've worked really hard on this, considering all the sets and props and everything.
the song is "stranger in the sky" by jason mraz. we got lucky on the courthouse which is in santa ana and it just so happened that nobody was there the day we went. its used as like a historical site. the outfit was from costume place. and yes, we're from california. thanks for the compliments
hey nice video, despite what other people have said. yea i agree with some others that it did miss some crucial parts of the book, but it's a short video, you can't capture the spirit of the stranger in nine minutes. and also, everyone has their own experience and interpretation of the stranger. so lay off. anyways good editing.
oh yeah can you tell me what music you used for your video. i love the music. and also i wanna say marie is kinda cute. you're from california i'm assuming?
Aun m pregunto x k? el protagonista dispara 4 veces mas...Si el universo lo había convertido en asesino, él ahora decide libremente aceptar ese papel...Yo creo más bien que Meursault mira hacia otro lado. No mira hacia donde miramos los demás.
in spite of some bad reviews this film got i really liked it. how else could such a story be adapted with little or no budget? i like the meursault character and the empty courtroom scene. sure, there were missing aspects to the story but if you know the story you have to understand that not all of it could be realized in a low-budget film. you did a good job.
Despite what the comments have said, I think the film was very well done,It was a very good in adapting and makeing it yours, a littel was cut from the book, some part I would like to see but in all it was probly the best The Stranger film I have seeing, the first opeing song was good and set the froboding mood.
The problem is that you never read the book, putting that kind of music as score is one of the many bad choises. You should rethink all your cultural aproach. There´s a reason why the book was writen and you missed it by making it fashionable.
good work! thumbs up for OCTA

This isn't the Stranger at all x.x What happened to the end? You left out the resolution. And Mersault is not emo like you make him seem.

Hmm, yeah. Mersault wasn't an angsty kid, and you kind of missed or worse, chose to ommit the great revelation at the end.
Kudos for creating this and posting it for us to view. The Stranger is my favorite book, but yeah this video was pretty horribly off from the text.
