I just heard from the Motion Picture Academy that my film ( https://vimeo.com/200417317 ) will not be eligible this year, either. They say it is not long enough to be a movie, and is too short to be a short. One member of the board called it "little more than a photograph with an attitude." Another said it brought on a migraine, and the movie critic for a French cinema blog deemed it "pretentious in its lack of apparent pretension, and morally outside the hermeneutics of the canon."
But I am sustained by the forum in believing my work to be of value, and I shall continue to break the barriers erected by the academy--by all academies!--and to continue our researches into the phenomenology of the bilge.
And, David, no, I didn't figure out anything smart to stop the drips. Except local advice that when it rains here, drink it.
