Short Films for the bored

With the production of our new web series going slow, we have been writing and planning to do a short film or 2 in the near future. Looking for inspiration I have been searching youtube and other websites to find all types of short films. If anyone out there is as bored as me (probably not), here are the 7 best shorts I came across that may keep you entertained at work.

7. Sun Sessions

The coming of age tale about a unique high school elvis fanatic who gets dumped by his first true love. Instead of roses and chocolates, Henry and his bandmates try to win back the girl through more creative methods, but her new annoying "jock" type boyfriend is ready to fight for her.

6. Samsara

The sun is dying, the sky is falling, the world is ending. But in less than eight and a half minutes, hope is coming.

5. Bullet In The Brain

Based on the short story by Tobias Wolff. Amazing acting, writing and directing. A must see for a writer or director.

4. School Of Life

A school teacher gives her students the answers to all of life's questions.

3. Autonomy

A man contemplates the numbing monotony of daily working life, and his escape from it. All of you recent college grads realizing how much working life sucks will appreciate this one.

2. The Legend Of David

FCRabbath (Freddy Rabbath). Remember this director, he will be the next Steven Spielburg.

This short film is long but amazing for a high school student on a zero dollar budget. Beautifully made with a great suspenseful story.

1. Hotel Chevalier

A beautiful love story... Or maybe not. This was the short film that played before the Darjeeling Limited, written and directed by Wes Anderson. Amazing directing/cinematography, wonderful acting and beautiful dialogue. If you like this you should watch the whole movie, The Darjeeling Limited.
