Project Redlight (I) (2002)

An interesting parody on movie-making. I loved how they kept referencing the amount of money allocated for the low budget movie they were trying to produce. This movie seemed to parallel what they probably went through to make this low budget short. The same decisions must be made in big budget films as in small budget, but the small budget decisions seem frivolous in comparison. I think it is the frivolousness that helps propel this short to a nine out of ten rating from me. I'll admit, though, I wasn't impressed with the screenwriters reference and indifference to his wife and child's dilemma. But overall, an entertaining short.
