http://www.thislife.org "This American Life" episode 226: "reruns" Act
One. Action! Action! Action! Starlee Kine tells the story of a man more
obsessed with reruns than even she is. Director Trent Harris made a
movie called The Beaver Trilogy. It's whole movie that's a rerun, based
on a personal rerun that Trent found himself caught in. Starlee saw the
movie, and tells the remarkable story of why it was made. (27 minutes.)

here clips from all three versions that ultimately became the short
shown at sundance: the initial documentary, then the one starring sean
penn, and finally the crispin version. great story.
