Can anyone provide the link?


I'd like to watch this, but can't seem to find it. Anyone have a link to share?

Thanks!

Enjoy -- it's only about fifteen minutes but it packs a helluva punch!

:( It won't let me watch it. It started downloading a codec and then at 99% said that it couldn't load and my computer froze and i can't have my gerry fix! I want my Ger-Bear!!!!

"The Phantom of the Opera is there,
Deep down below!" Heehee, wouldn't that be fun?

Gebo,

It sounds as if the problem you're having is with the Windows software. You can try downloading a version of QuickTime for Windows from: http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/ and then go back to the "Please" link at atomfilms.com; there's a box you can check when the site asks you to select your media preference that says "use QuickTime when available." I haven't needed to use it because I've have RealPlayer on a Mac, but maybe this will work better for you than the codec file.

Good luck!

Coool!!! Thanks! I just got done watching it! This was very good, but very sad. I loved the scene in the office with that lady (I guess she's an editor??) and he's ranting to her, then she finds out that she was reading his book and he breaks down and cries and she's like, "Have your mobile switched off all morning?" and he's sobbing and says, "I broke it!" He sounds so funny in that scene! I love it!

But, God, it is sooooo depressing!!! His life finally gets back on track, and then he dies!! And his daughter is sooo stupid!!! She's what, 7? 8? I knew better than to play with guns when I was that age, she is soo dumb!!

LOL
I totally agree! I was so mad at the daughter! I was on the edge of tearing!

Children are so stupid nowadays. Ugh! It drives me mad!

I have Windows Media Player and Quicktime, but I can't get the film to play. The commercial for SBC Yahoo works just fine but then the film doesn't start. Nothing happens when I click the Play icon.

Do you have any idea what I'm doing wrong?

You're not doing anything wrong, it's probably that your PC doesn't have on it the codec that's required for Windows Media Player to decode the film file. Rather than rummage around to try to figure out which codec you need -- there are way too many of them IMO -- it would be easier to use Real Player. But you don't have RealPlayer, do you? You can download a free copy of that from http://www.real.com/player/?src=realplayer; go there and click the blue "Free RealPlayer" button that's in the upper right-hand corner of the page that displays. You'll need to set up an account there, but it's just choosing a user name and password.

Good luck, and let me know if you have any other questions -- and please let me know what you think of the film when you can see it! (PM me if you want.)

Thanks hmf-1!

I have RealPlayer and didn't even know it. Once I chose it, it played fine. I loved it! What a sad story! Of course Gerry was brilliant in it. Thanks for all your help. :)

"And this is society's fault because...?"

But seriously, this short has incredible. i mean such great acting that it really made u feel it. When it was loading, i didnt know what to ecxplect, and i was shocked. I just found it becaus i needed my daily dose of Gerry. heheheheh :)


I was blown away!

reply

I just watched it using realplayer- what a powerful short film- so much pathos in 15 minutes! And Gerry was magnificent!

reply

Yes indeed it was good. Very good. Gerard Butler is such a hottie. The emotion was great. I prefer to think that he survived. LOL. He already died once in Reign of Fire. I can't have him dyin' again. ^.^ Watch this if u LOVE Gerard Butler.

reply

damn kid!!!
I hated the girl for being so stupid!
they story did make sense though... gerry was brilliant!

reply

I agree. I love this movie.


For nowadays the world is lighted by lightening-so blow out your candels, Laura-and so goodbye!

reply

Wow! A very powerful film. The beginning telephone scene just blew me away...

Open up your mind, let your fantasies unwind...

I was lucky to discover this short on a British Cable website. I think it was Channel 4 - short films. As for Mr. Butler, I must confess that he is an interesting actor. I thank the higher powers for changing his career from law to acting.
I will confess that Mr. Butler could have been reciting the alphabet and I would still be drawn into his character. What a great little film?


reply

where is it...the link I mean...when I went on atomfilms.com they took it off, and I just wanted to see it again...I would love to know where this British Cable website is so I could see it again...thanx.

reply

I've found it! I've been searching for ages and I've found it on YouTube! Here's the URL: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AiCw8V_pF9o
Happy watching!

reply

Yay! New link. I've been wanting to re-watch it for a while now...

Hands and juicers just don't mix.
