This is a short film that I created.
Thanks to Nathan from Beyond Modernity for discussing Nietzschean values, feminist values, and the meaning of this film (before it was finished) on one of the earlier posts, "On Women Being Murderous in the Movies".

I enjoyed the film immensely. The riff on the femme fatale is great, and the subtitles-during-airplane and full-to-bursting ashtray made me laugh. Wonderful visual ideas (I hear that's important in cinema) and locations. Terrific editing. Well done.
We were going for Tacoma-ness when we put in the airplane noises. And since one of the prompts we had was "French film" we figured subtitles, lots of one-on-one conversations, semi-romantic confusion, and cigarettes. Greg said "Every French film needs to have cigarettes."
Ah, I see: you had prompts. You got some great shots. I hope the film won something.
And actually, since I'm on the Praxis Imago staff, I was the one who came up with the prompts... LoL. But I came up with a bunch so we weren't sure which ones our team would get ;)
No, this film didn't win anything. Foolish Pleasures is mostly for students to make funny films. You know, "college humor". Whatever that is.
Wow, a film review, thanks! Go ahead and critique away, I'm not attached to this film in any parturient sense at all. I was more interested while editing what role the camera-handlers and editors have in shaping content into a certain perspective, and what it then looks like to the spectators. Or, in general, how film successfully or unsuccessfully shapes perspective.
