Lately, it seems that the one thing we are running out of is time. We strive for efficiency in everything we do. Cooking, cleaning, working, entertaining... with almost all of our routine tasks we struggle to save time. We assume that the more we can fit in during one day, the better our lives will be. I recently came across a website that is allowing even the simplest of pleasures to take us a mere minute! Welcome to Movie-A-Minute. That's right. For those of you who hate sitting in front of your television or driving all the way to the theatre to catch a two hour flick--you're problems have been solved.
Yes, of course, this website is a farce. I found it delightful and I love the way it pokes fun at some of my favorite films. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate films for what they are. But, I can't help but to laugh at the fact that we've become a society obsessed with cramming it all in.
Btws, I particularly enjoyed their minute synopsis on Reservoir Dogs, Notting Hill, Lost in Translation, Speed and Erin Brockovich.

That's a pretty funny website. Your right that its great how this relates to our society. You should watch the one on the Departed.
ReplyDelete"I will blow up the elevator. Oh no, not the elevator. I will blow up the bus. Oh no, not the bus." This website is brilliant. That definitely gave me quite a laugh.
