Progress in Black & White

We All Tube

I'm probably one of the last bloggers to stick some YouTube clips in a post and call it done. But sometimes there's good to be found in the status quo.

CLIP #1: The Bottle Rocket Short: Wes Anderson's (ridiculously good) film started out as a short, shot on black and white film. Which makes it feel a lot darker, and well shorter. You'll recognize some scenes nearly identical to ones that made it into the feature length. One of my favorite parts is at the beginning and involves a conversation between Dignan (Owen Wilson) and Anthony (Luke Wilson) about an episode of Starsky and Hutch...



CLIP #2: Square One: Does anyone remember this show? Fast forward halfway through for a very special treat - Mathnet. I love Mathnet. Love it...
