When you think of short film, or web video, for some reason your mind wanders to artsy abstract movies that don’t have a point, any characters or just are utter shit. It can lead you to believe that all that’s out there is Hollywood. But the one thing the web is good for is producing work that is unregulated, so you can get away with whatever you want, and all the things you couldn’t do on broadcast.
In 1999, Tim Hamilton released “Truth In Advertising” which is a bit like “Liar, Liar” where everyone in an advertising agency says what they really think and mean instead of the laye of bullshit they indulge in every day.
It’s a work of genius and some of the most amazing writing you’ll experience for a long time to come.
And 3 years later…
If you like it, you can buy the original DVD from Amazon here:
