Last night, I attended the opening ceremonies for my own, and my city's first film festival (The Birmingham Sidewalk Moving Picture Festival). I made sure to get there an hour early, and get a great seat. Two hours later, I had drunk a dr. pepper, changed seats three times, and not yet seen a movie. Nonetheless, it didn't take too long to get things rolling, and as part of the movie festival feeling, they showed a short film to get things rolling. I don't remember seeing anything quite this funny in a long time. Oh, jeez, it kills me just to think about it. Rarely in this country do you get to see short films. I wish they would show more, especially if they're more like Herd. I recommend this film to anyone. Period.
