View Full Version : PASSION - the best 60 second film ever
Peter John Ross February 22nd, 2004, 12:43 PM A PASSION FOR FILMMAKING
http://scottspears.net/video/passion.mpg
This is the best 60 seconds I've seen in a long while. Shot 16mm by Scott Spears, and written/directed by John Whitney. The film answers the question "what does a director do in their spare time?"

Alex Taylor February 22nd, 2004, 01:53 PM Hahaha, nice.. something tells me if there was ever a 'Jackass' made by filmmakers, it would be something like that.
Sharon Fraats February 22nd, 2004, 02:36 PM Good, Better than Good Great....naw it was.....
"ROFWL" I very rarely give that award out.......
Charles Papert February 22nd, 2004, 07:47 PM Yup, very very funny!
Peter John Ross February 22nd, 2004, 09:40 PM I love John WHitney's directoral style. Very dry wit.
Robert Knecht Schmidt February 22nd, 2004, 10:07 PM Hey Peter,
Where is Hollywood, Ohio? Does it have a big sign marking it?
Peter John Ross February 22nd, 2004, 10:39 PM No, it's a suburb of Wadsworth Ohio.
The Hollwood sign here is on a small hill next to the Luthern Church. It was made by the Amish.
Rick Bravo February 22nd, 2004, 11:08 PM EXCELLENT...
although,
I think Scott could have held out for a little more of a nuance from the cemetary bust!

John Gaspain February 23rd, 2004, 01:36 AM pretty funny
Peter John Ross February 26th, 2004, 02:46 PM sweeeeeeeet
Marty Martin February 26th, 2004, 06:17 PM I thought this was definitely funny. Seen a lot of stuff similar to this, but it was still funny. I felt like there should have been a bit more. I think overall I felt like it wasn't carried out as far as it could have been.
But I definitely got a laugh out of it!
Donald Gregory February 29th, 2004, 06:54 PM Even though I've seen it several times now, I still get a chuckle out of it.
Kevin Maistros March 2nd, 2004, 08:16 AM Made me giggle. The B&W clips seemed a bit blurry to me, but hey it's fun.
Also, for a second there I thought your signature was a link to www.sonnybono.com but.. I read it too fast, haha.
Peter John Ross March 2nd, 2004, 08:41 AM Yikes! Sonny Bono?
Ken Tanaka March 2nd, 2004, 11:30 AM That was funny! If the ASC Store (http://www.theasc.com/cgibin/store/acsstore.cgi) ever wanted to run an ad, this would be it!
Thank you for sharing it with us. I know I really needed the laugh today.
Kyle Kauss March 5th, 2004, 10:01 AM yeah it was pretty funny
Jonathan Pike March 5th, 2004, 03:35 PM Haha
Haasim Mahanaim March 6th, 2004, 03:09 PM VERY COOL!
With the sunglassess you errily resemble Steven Soderbergh. Not that there's anything wrong with that.
Peter John Ross March 10th, 2004, 11:46 AM Uhhh
That's not me. That's really Steven Soderberg as the "director".

Well don't I have egg shells on my face.
*Embarassed, Haasim deletes the cookie file for dvInfo.net, never again to return.*
EDIT: *Haasim watches the video again and contemplates if John Ross was pulling his leg.*
Peter John Ross March 10th, 2004, 03:12 PM Don't - I'm kidding - that's not Soderberg, it's a PA on a few shoots John Whitney did. His name escapes me. I was just upset someon thought that was ME!
