Giovanni Sanseviero
Ever consider removing even more from the short?
The three card monty and the line of people waiting to get inside is not an important element.
The crux(in my opinion), should pertain only to Benny. That is all we need to make this a memorable and most excellent film. I fully understand how hard it would be to cut emotionally packed and superbly acted fillers but they are not important. Infact, from my perspective, all I cared about was Benny and his demons. The mystique and magic of the building distracted and pulled me out of the major thrust..infact, I felt it diluted Benny's occurence.
I do understand how the line of people can open up a plethera of tales and future stories. Still, that is not what I cared about while watching this segment.
Excellent job I say.
