What happens when you spend a couple hours trying to film a scene and the audio gets horribly distorted? Apparently you make a silent film. Eat your heart out Chaplin!
Trouble with the link? Try the crappier Youtube version: Here
Conceived by Leslie Fox & Bernard Bygott
Cast:
Bernard Bygott and Leslie Fox
Camera: J. Christian Bygott
Editing: Bernard Bygott and Leslie Fox






























that was well done! i liked the attention to continuity with the front and back shots. and the freeze frame at the end was key.
Thanks Jamie!!! Yeah, there are some cool moments of continuity and some terrible liberties taken as well. Don’t want to raise the bar too high! We’ve got a rep to uphold!
Where is the damsel in distress? Where are the train tracks on which to tie her? Where are the top hats?
I am unaware of any silent films that portrayed crossword puzzles, or men putting their arms around each other’s shoulders. Unless they were lumberjacks.
As a film, it’s funny. But at the least, Mr. Fox could have grown a mustache for the occasion, and then twirled it.

We were going to add the Damsel in post… but then the CGI department went on strike. In showbiz it only takes one little setback to transform a heroic epic filmed in beautiful Vista-VisionĀ® into a black and white short about puzzle-doing lumberjacks. Oh well, we’ll get ‘em next time.
