Shorts 7 "Life Lessons" Part One
I was really tired today. Lack of sleep is catching up to me. Even though I had no papers due, I still was in charge of three boys age 17-18 staying with me in the hotel last night, and even after knowing me for several years it didn't occur to them that I would notice immediately if they left at 2:30am. *ahem* They're straight on that now, but I'm tired. So anyway, I was sleepy during the shorts, and maybe didn't enjoy them as much as I should have, but I did rate five of them Good and one Excellent. El Pasajero - I liked this one a lot but it was long, and long shorts get me antsy. A taxi driver tries to rob his passenger, but the passenger tries to get him to sell his gun to him instead. They end up inside the passenger's house drinking, talking and even dancing the night (New Year's) away. It was an emotional ending and was very good. I believe the director/writer said he wrote it after (his father I think) came into almost the same situation. I gave it a Good for being too long, but thinking back now I should have given an Excellent. Comments
