The Scarlatti Tilt

[Hindasound]

And yeah, I'm a Brautigan fan, too :)

[Hindasound]

Ohhh!! Frikken fabulous! It's 2:07am in Los Angeles and...just frikken fab! Thanks!

Wheeeeeee!

[kenrg]

Hey, thank you!

[captainfury2007]

Thats hilarious. Oh man, I have to find out more about this writer. I am a fan of Edward Gorey.

[kenrg]

Thanks - it's one of my favorite short stories. And the shortest.

[awh2109]

@lenaseale08 so what did you find out then??

[lenaseale08]

@awh2109 had read an article claiming that you have to watch it to understand it's punch but as far as I can gather, its just a clever story which can be interpreted in many ways depending on the assumptions you place with it

[xgatesbigeck]

great stuff. you did the man proud.

[seamuslopez]

Sorry for the bit of Schitzophrenia, it took forever to get the confirmation e-mail for this account so I signed up again under the "seamuslopez" moniker too.

We both agree that your video is brilliant, though.

[seamuslopez]

Brilliant!

One of my favorite Brautigan short stories. Now can you do "Dreaming Of Babylon"?

[kenrg]

Ah, man, a Brautigan fan! I'd love to do Babylon, but that's a full-length picture; not something I can put together in an afternoon for YouTube. But Thank You!

[gpence]

Well done.

The only things I would have changed are the gun graphic (both the Into and Closing) which shows a Colt Model 1911 (.45). The story specifically mentions a "revolver" (which the Colt is not) -- yet you do use a revolver in the shooting scene. I would also remove the dish from the apartment scene at the 24 second frame.

[Annaconda1984]

wow (-: i totally enjoyed it, it started of peacefully and went faster and faster. It was like a smileyrollercoasterride. I like your use of music (and timing).

[kenrg]

I like that, "smileyrollercoasterride" - Thank you!

[curt344]

Now THAT is one SHORT short story.

It took me almost as long to give this 5 stars as it did for me to watch it.

[kenrg]

This has been one of my favorite short stories for years. Brevity is such a great virtue.

[curt344]

Yes.

:-D

[HoneybunchesRN]

haha! short, sweet, and simple. :)

[kenrg]

And yet, a complete story. There's the setting, the problem, the motive, the action, and the result. Thanks!

[dabiribd]

Should've said; don't shoot! I'm only playin the violin!

[livingpassion]

Haha! That was great. (Hence "Haha" with an exclamation point...)

[thefrozenghost]

I find "Haha" is best served with the exclamation point. Less tasty with the period, which adds a sarcastic aftertaste...I avoid serving it with the question mark, altogether.

[kenrg]

These distinctions are important. Thank you.

[cherrera7]

Short and sweet, and not a wasted visual either! ;-)

[kenrg]

Kenrg respects your time restrictions. Thanks!

[thefrozenghost]

Huh...I got up to get some hot buttery popcorn and a cold refreshing beverage and when I got back it was over...

[kenrg]

That's what the "replay" button is for...

Did you save some popcorn for me?

[EasyRaoul]

I like that image on 00:14!

The left runway approach...

and there's a storm a-brewin' at twelve o'clock!

Nice and sweet...

Cheers!

[kenrg]

The storm-a-brewin'? It's called foreshadowing. You have any idea how long I had to sit around in mid-air to get that shot just right?

Thank!

[MomoDelicious]

LMAO, thought the siren was another cop car passing by my apartment. :)

[kenrg]

What siren?

[MomoDelicious]

Haha...made me whatch your vid twice. :)

[NiteBlogger]

Good visual setup - wow - u just keep 'em coming - and keep us entertained!

Thanks!

[kenrg]

Thank you!

[FatalNoogie]

I told you never to play Philip Glass is my house! *BANG*

[kenrg]

Hey, I like Philip Glass! (But LOL at the comment) Thanks!

[mixedpixel]

short and sweet

[Spiff144]

I like your stuff, you are very creative and ceep on making stuff that are diffrent from what you have done before:D

[kenrg]

I hate repeating myself. Except when I can't think of any new crap, which is why I've now done four Lone Ranger videos... I really admire people who can stick with one "show" and build on that. I'm too restless; I get bored and want to move on to a different topic or style.

[rextangle]

LOL That was interesting Ken! I like it!

[stukeck]

Wow talk about consise!

Well watched...

Pappy Stu mumbled it...

[kenrg]

Concise, yes. But every word of the original short story is in there.
