FILMS OF MINE - FAMILY 2008

Hello,

Here is the second film I will be showing on my blog.

The story:

There is zero narrative here in this story. Its basically a 4 minute long expression of the family bond - to the sound of The Beatles classic 'I get by with a little help from my friends'.

The story behind the story:

Before you watch this video I must acknowledge that it is incredibly self indulgent and tests the patience of any viewer who is not related to myself - due to its lack of engaging story. However, I still decided it was just about worthy enough for public consumption due to my father's performance. When watching this clip you may be struck by his sheer middle aged wierdness. You may ask yourself: 'Is this supposed to be funny?' 'Is this man mentally unwell?' 'How did he get on screen?' 'What does he want?' and 'Who does he imagine is watching?'. You've got to admire his commitment to the role that only he understands.
