A very nice one-man performance

I have seen between 200-400 short films on IMDb and I must say that I can't recall another short like this one. That's because Benjamin Green does a monologue and despite no other actors, he's able to maintain the viewer's attention because he is a very good actor. No doubt the writing and direction helped as well. Regardless, it's worth seeing.

The film starts with Green in the tub. He begins talking to the camera about how he's completely screwed up his career as an artist. It seems at his first one man show, he got nervous and had a few drinks...a few too many drinks. Instead of being charming, he came off as a boorish jerk and now he's afraid to do anything other than sit and soak and wait. You really have to feel sorry for the guy, as he tells a good story and makes you understand how a guy can get himself into such a mess.

The only other comment is that the language is a bit harsh. While it's appropriate to the situation, it makes this a lousy film to show kids.
