The Move



The Omeleto short film The Move is supposedly about a couple taking the grand step in their relationship of moving in together. Kate and Todd are excited about finding a roomy apartment they can afford. But the place is a little strange, or let's say, very strange. Maybe that's why it's affordable. What they find provokes shock, fear, and possibilities. You have to wonder what happened to the previous tenants. The viewer is intrigued by an anomaly in the fabric of space and time, and we expect to get a resolution or an explanation, or even a grand adventure. But that's not what this is about at all. The Move was written and directed by Erick Kissak and stars Dustin Milligan from Schitt's Creek and Amanda Crew from Silicon Valley. (via Kottke)

Damn, that's a tough position.
The prospects are so exciting but possibly so dangerous.
Do you risk the unknown/dangers?
Or risk forever coulda shoulda woulda?

1. Together they're a whole person. She's better, though. The paint idea. 2. The first thing I would have done, immediately in the door, is open the cabinet. 3. He's the one afraid of the future, and yet, before he went in after her, I was going, "Take food. Take water and tools." And after it's over I think, "I'll bet the controls or at least clues to the operation are in the cabinet."
