scoot- i got an email from allan weisbecker today. here's the first seven minutes of the film he's making. so far, it's a masterpiece. all of us adventurers will relate, but it's also a great study in human sanity that will draw in anyone. i can't wait to see the finished film. ~polvo ************************************* from allen weisbecker, author of cosmic banditos in search of captain zero can't you get along with anyone? (This is not a teaser, i.e., disjointed, fast-paced images meant to excite your curiosity whether the film is exciting or not. This is the opening of the film, warts and all. ) Water Time Preview Those of you who have been with me for a while know I'm making a film called Water Time; Surf Travel Diary of a MadMan. (The 'MadMan' part is to be mutable; it goes from 'Madman to “Mad Man'.) I started filming in 2008; the production is going into its third year. As I hope you'll soon see, the opening of the film asks a few questions, which we (you as the audience, me as the storyteller) hope will be answered by the end. At the end. One of those questions is Where will I end up? (I'm no kid, so the query has some depth.) The answer is... back where I started two years ago. Montauk, New York, United States of America. As I write, I am in the midst of packing up the paraphernalia of my life for a long road trip. (You don't need to know where I am now.) Holy shit, I’ve blown the ending! But big deal: Who cares where I end up? Right? Well, it’s up to the film to make you care. We’ll see. By the way, I really welcome feedback. I know: you don't know much yet, but that's all right. Question is, Do you want to know more? For reasons having to do with my being slightly panic-stricken over having spent almost all my money on the film, I need to know how many of you are interested. So, if I've struck a cord with the opening and you figure you at least might cough up something to see the rest of the film, shoot me an email at: allan@banditobooks.com here's the link to the first seven minutes: youtube.com
