    I was trying to read and interpret the guy's lips to see what he was saying. It sort of looked like he was saying, "No. No. Go Away! Leave me alone! As he gets closer to the camera, I lost track of his words. A really nice short and weird film. I liked the chewing bit at the end. Say, what do you do when a fiery redhead throws a pin at you?
    《Run the hell away..... she's got a hand grenade in her mouth!》😂😂😂

      Glad you like this one! And thanks for the lip-reading - I was curious about what he was saying :)

    What surrealistic fun! I love how it plays with proportions/size/reality - the closer he is the larger he is to the point where he can swallow/eat the camera and cameraman! Thanks for more Tuesday night whimsey!

      Yes, it is surreal, isn't it? And very playful, as you say. Glad you enjoyed it! :)

    Another fun one, though I have seen it before. I do think he's annoyed with the cameraman (early paparazzi?) so he decides just to swallow everything.

      That makes sense, and I have seen articles which suggest that, but it wasn't immediately obvious to me on first viewing :)

    Gulp!! Short and to the point! Not that the actor looked anything like him, but for some weird reason, Mel Brooks sprang to mind!

      Interesting! It's a fun idea, this one. :)

      @@TengyTalksTVMovies I'm not sure where Mel Brooks came from. Maybe it's just that I can imagine him, or Gene Wilder, doing a silent movie skit like this for some reason. Thanks for sharing Tengy.

    I have three things to say about this.
    1. What in the world did I just watch....?
    2. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.....(followed by more endless laughing from me).
    3. I have a very deep appreciation for this utterly hilarious, random little gem.
