i thought the music selection was great for this, what was it?

[HENRYandREL Supermarche]

thanks suckonthis86. the music is part of Neil Young's score for Jim Jarmusch's "Dead Man".

Pretentious and completely beside the point. Sorry, man... I had to be an asshole for the sake of truth. I hate that it came to this, I really do. We are both the same.

[GetMeThere1]

Cool.

I'd like to see Seymour's "life story." Starting out as his days on "It's a Wise Child," then as "Teddy" on the cruise ship, writing home from camp, defending Walt for giving away his new bike (was it Walt?), leaving Muriel at the altar (then eloping)...with this video as the ending...

We could leave out the part where he throws the rock at Charlotte...

If only Buddy would direct it...

i never saw him sighing, maybe it says he did..

but es, all tv should be stop-frame. niceity-nice

Very nice video, brought back memories of the story, good job.

There were alot of holes in this. For instance we never find out why Sybal was invisible. This wasn't the case in the story, and the reasons for this change arnen't made clear. Also, why was the gun between two folded shirts on the bed. Also, I thought you left out an important part in your omission of Muriel.

Pretty Awesome! I love this short story.

Well captured! ;D

[stargate121]

The little girl was all in his mind?

[industrialist88]

Wow! That was really good!
