Wordless and Beautiful, 11 novembre 2007
7/10
Auteur : Rubio MHS de Etats-Unis

I'm so glad that an Asian action director didn't take a hold of this idea and turn it into 30 guys getting murdered. This is what a short film should look like. It has a simple plot, it draws your attention, and you want more. I watch a lot of movies and TV shows on my computer, and I love throwing a short film in between two files.

I have a very young son that hates everything but Thomas the Train and Family Guy, and I'm always curious how he'll respond to a film like this. He's asleep now, but tomorrow, I think I'll show it to him, and hope he doesn't cry. I love films like this because they remind me of moments from my long and sorted past.

The way the tramp reacts to the gun is so real. Anyone who's held a gun has thought about hiding it, holding against your head, or it being stolen. Fassbinder speaks to anyone who's owned a gun, shot a gun or been to war. But he also speaks to anyone who has taken heroin, been a high-school teacher, lived in a very poor country or lived on a farm. He speaks to anyone who has gained power, but lost it; laughing at him.

A parody would be useless..., 28 décembre 2004
3/10
Auteur : Chris Rebholz de Somewhere in Cyberspace

This short film doesn't need to have a parody, because it is almost a self-parody.

It's Fassbinder's earliest work, according to the IMDb. The problem is that while watching it, I couldn't help but think of two "Saturday Night Live" scenarios: "Sprockets" and Leonard Pinth-Garnell's "Truly Bad Cinema." Honest. I was expecting Dieter to pop up at any moment from the midst of the bushes at any moment, and at the end, Leonard Pinth-Garnell to pop up, saying, "Truly, truly awful. A brilliant example of bad acting." About the best that I can say for this is that the photography is pretty good.

The only reason I can think of to watch this is for the reason I did so: to see some of Fassbinder's earliest work. I can't say that I'm upset that I spent ten minutes of my life watching it, but if it had gone on for another twenty minutes, I would have been waiting to hear Tom Servo's commentary on MST3K at some point.

Just bad in nearly every way., 26 février 2005
Auteur : Systematicer de Autriche

>A tramp finds a gun lying in the street.<

Imagine what you could possibly make out of this short plot line. Give me 10 minutes and I would make something good out of it. In case of this short nobody spent 10 minutes to think about the story.

What the film has:

bad points: -bad acting -sloppy characterizations -unbelievable situations -absolute no conclusion

good points: -a famous director

There is really nothing you could get out of this film. Not even with the weirdest mind. Even some Japanese action director would have made a more believable and satisfying 10 minutes film with this plot line. So is there anything good about it? Yes, if you would look at it as a dream. Because in a dream, nothing has to make sense. Just like this early short from Fassbinder.
