Check out my film!

hello 240ers.

First off, besides my passion for cars I have an equal passion for films.

Are there any other filmmaking 240 guys on here???

I’ve done some car stuff and I plan do do more, but this film I shot is a WWII film.

This is indeed a true “film” and not a video. I shot it on 16mm with a very old German ARRI camera. It’s slow paced but it pays off in the end.

Please watch and tell me what you think. It’s obviously far from perfect.

Poster I made for the film…

Good work man… I haven’t watched too many short films, but this was good.
Good acting too!

cool stuff

Is that song by Billy Bragg??? Sounds A LOT like him… (Sorry. I stopped watching right at 9 mins… Not a rolling credits kinda guy, lol)

I really enjoyed the whole old school technicolor feel. Made me feel like I was watching an authentic old war movie.
The narration was really well done to…

Well done sir…

Thanks guys!

The song is actually by a guy I know. Friend of my family since before I was born.

I agree, the movie tends to feel like it was actually shot in the 40’s. 16mm can look really vintage with the proper techniques.

The camera I used was probably around when this film takes place.

nice man i grew up on these movies, (longer tho) looks kind of like those old skool 40`s movies very good job man

that was really good man, keep it up

I’m looking forward to the car films!

Not really into old style films, but I can definitely see the effort put into it.

Keep it up

I added some pictures to the original post.

Yes, the gun is real and was really used in WWII along with almost everything else he’s wearing.

Thanks for all the comments!

lol, Butters. I met that dude on Sasha’s birthday.

Good job Ty

yea try to make a video like the Bullitt movie, McQueen is the man

Bravo! I liked your short film

I’ve got one written already. If it were to get made it would be the ultimate homage to Bullitt, but it’ll only happen if I can sell the script. It’s too big a film to attempt myself.

I’m thinking of doing a teaser maybe and just shooting one scene.

Thanks again for all the feedback!

good stuff dude, i liked it … im sure youll do great with ur next projects, good luck buddy

That was great! Very Nice! Keep it going!.. Toronto film festival entry???

Impressive film man!
