Wolfe Video has gathered some wonderful festival hit short films in one collection for the boys!
Available Men (US, 2006, 15 min, David Dean Bottrell): A desperate Hollywood agent named Rob goes to an L.A. hotel to meet Stephen, a young writer with a hot new screenplay. Meanwhile, a mild mannered artist named Steve goes to the same hotel to meet a shy young accountant named Rob on a blind date. Who can tell what's going to happen?
Hello, Thanks (US, 2006, 8 min, Andy Blubaugh): Andy is having quite a year in the personal ads. An official selection at the 2006 Sundance Film Festival, Hello, Thanks is an amusing and bittersweet look at the fine art of writing personal ads to summarize yourself and attract others.
Irene Williams: Queen of Lincoln Road (US, 2005, 23 min , Eric Smith): Winner of the 2005 PlanetOut Award for Best Documentary and Toronto's 2005 InsideOut Audience Award for Best Short, this is an entertaining portait of a extraordinary Miami Beach eccentric with unique fashion style and flare.
Sissy French Fry (US, 2005, 28 min, JC Oliva): The annual student body president election at the wildly eclectic and diverse West Beach High School pits the quirky, much-beloved incumbent Sissy Frenchfry against a handsome, charismatic and socially intolerant transfer student with a devious plan to restore the status quo.
Straight Boys (US, 2006, 15 min, Dave O'Brien): Ben thinks he's found true love in his straight college roommate Morgan (Nick Bartzen of The Conrad Boys). Being honest with Morgan may be Ben's straightest path to happiness, regardless of the outcome.
Tumbleweed Town (US, 1999, 8 min, Samara Halperin): In this animated cowboy tale, produced in 1999 (Six years before the film adaptation of Brokeback Mountain!), Todd hitchhikes through the Texas desert seeking true love. Winner, First Prize, PlanetOut Short Movie Awards.
The Underminer (US, 2005, 6 min, Todd Downing): NYC performance artist and cult icon Mike Albo plays both lead roles in the short film adaptation of his best-selling book about those masters of passive-aggression who spin their friends into self-doubt and panic with every encounter. Directed by Todd Downing, creator of Jeffrey's Hollywood Screen Trick and Dirty Baby Does Fire Island.
