My Best Friend's Birthday (Daja Edit) Part I

It's Mickey's Birthday and his girlfriend just left him, so that's when his friend Clarence shows him a birthday he'll never forget.

Now, why did I mess with a Tarantino?
Well, I "messed" because I think the film had a lot of potetion if it would get a good edit. With good editting at the right places, black/white and light(er) images instead of those dark green images and with music at the right place I think this film is much more entertaining and interesting to watch. I think (and offcourse you've got the right to disagree) that the time and effort I putted in this film made a world of difference, and I hope you'll appreciate this.

Cheers,
Dennis Daja

This upload is not an attempt at saying I did something better than Tarantino. As a matter of fact I took the unfinished film and added a lot of things to make it easier to watch. I'm an admirer of Tarantino and i think it is important people can enjoy his first film.

Daja, did you add the music yourself? Or was it already apart of the movie...like Jailhouse Rock and Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds...?

[DennisDaja]

I added it myself. There were only a view pieces of music in this film (those scenes in the bar).

But it should say EDITED BY DENNIS... instead of having your name next to Quentin's. That'd be like: PULP FICTION by Quentin Tarantino and Sally Menke. All I was saying is that it should say BY QUENTIN TARANTINO, and next to it: EDITED BY DENNIS... Otherwise it looks like you co-directed and co-wrote it.

[DennisDaja]

As I said I am also "presenting" it. I ain't saying I co-wrote it nor that I co-directed it. The begin titles only say the Tarantino and Daja "present you". And that is exactly one of the things I am doing with this video.

[rawoctopus]

but why say QUENTIN TARANTINO and DENNIS DAJA when you only edited it. that's kind of lame.

[DennisDaja]

Because I do present it. And I've also spent a lot of time in making it presentable and re-editting.

[NoTouchMyBiscuits]

It's pretty cool how you cleaned it up. but could you maybe upload the real unedited version or maybe point me towards a link that has the real version on it? because you did a nice job but i would like to be able to appreciate the real historical version for what it is. I would appreciate it a lot. Thanks.

[MBLAAMABA]

I always love the opening conversation at the beginning of the film

[GunSlingingGames]

@samadin32 Go fuck your self :)

As far as I'm concerned...you took a defensless, unfinished movie that coudn't be finished because of the fire, and you wanted to feel good about editing it and saying you did a better job than him. This was film dude, not digital. A LOT more technical. Do it to your own films....
