Entering Reality (1999)
great. not more.
I saw this movie on the Internet, and I have to confess that it was the first online-film that I did watch until the end.
I think this is really a great film. Great cast, great mise-en-scene, great script, great atmosphere.
I'd recommend this short to everybody in the film-business, because after much wasting of my time watching those "high-end" films I recently discovered this film.
Viktor Vogel - Commercial Man (2001)
funny?!
One of the sentences you learn going to a filmschool is: "A comedy is only a comedy if someone is laughing. If nobody is laughing, then it is not a comedy. It is something else."
I think this is what best fits for this film. It is a story about a young guy (Viktor Vogel, whyever this comic-name) seeking a job in a big commercial company. He finally gets there, but only because the company needs him to make a deal with Opel. After the deal has gone, he is kind of thrown out.
That's the story. I don't think it's funny. Let alone all those little things like the (german) synchronization, of the mumbling voice of Götz George, of all the stereotyped characters without any depth nor wound. The film was okay if it would have been broadcast on the television. But it simply doesn't fit into a cinema room. For this it is too "small".
I'd recommend this film only for: how not to make a funny film.
