Amusing Short Film

I saw this last night when I went to see Melinda and Melinda. It played before the feature (I think it's playing at most Landmark Theaters). It was an extremely well done short film with some very funny parts. The humor was very similar to that of Napoleon Dynamite, the movie for which writer/director Aaron Ruell is best known.

I also thought that though the film deals with the Virgin Mary, anyone should be able to enjoy it. I myself am not a very religious person yet was still able to enjoy this short immensely.

Unfortunately, I'm not sure where anyone can see this short film other than where I saw it, at the Bethesda Row Cinema in Bethesda, MD.

Offbeat, creepy/sweet

It's about a little girl who sees the Virgin Mary, tells her mother about it, and suffers a modern consequence.

We saw it right before the British film "Millions". That was very appropriate, because "Millions" has a similar theme.

I think it's playing at Landmark's "art" or "independent" theaters. We saw it twice in the last few weeks (late April 2005). The other time was before "The Downfall" (German, original title "Der Untergang")

It's listed at five minutes long. The credits take about two minutes out of that. Amazing that it takes so many people to make such a short film.

(Sorry if this seems like padding, but there are times when a comment that is less than 10 lines long is perfectly appropriate. IMDb, give us a break.)
