the only problem is that the film won't deteriorate when played in youtube..... so it's fully preserved, not that i find myself not being able to get to sleep over the issue....

it's just odd this being documented in this format....

which is my way of saying "cheers"

(don't hurt me)

For me, this is the best comment this film has received, and it represents a part of my own approach and feelings to this subject.

This is my way to say 'Thanks, I really appreciate that' :)

I'll like to recommend you to visit: ubu [dot] com

There's a lot of great works there.

Greetings!

Thanks for posting this: I am studying this for an exam and it is very helpful.

Being honest, I have to admit I fail to understand why this, and lots of contemporary art should be considered art and interesting: even with Zen, this looks like a mere provocation...but thanks anyway!.

I can't believe that most of these comments are snarky responses about how this isn't art, and how stupid this is. Try thinking creatively, and maybe coming up something interesting to say about it. Because sitting at your computer watching youtube and posting your shallow thoughts about this piece doesn't show ANYONE that you are supoer intelligent. LAME

Still a better love story than twilight.

Remember, bullshitting is key.

cramming for art history exam tomorrow morning, watching\analizing stupid ass "art" such as this makes me want to murder everything. Why don't people just draw pretty pictures anymore?

[MsPsycho29]

I get it: you understand what you want from it; film isn't real; reality is what we imagine; zen is meditation etc., and so on...

But really, this film is not that creative. Cage did this with 4'33; kids do this in kindergarden. Sorry, but its not profound.

We can intellectualize anything...

ubu dot RULES!!! Nice to see someone recommending such a great site, glad I'm not the only one.. ; )
