Live Fast

Left Right

Rose Swan and Eddie Dawson met in a malt shop just outside of Tuscaloosa on a Friday night in 1958. This is their story. It is fun.

You know what’s funny? How Tuscaloosa looks in no way like Los Angeles.

p.s., this is awesome.

How awesome was that!! Must have been the hardest 5sf to make ever! Congrats, guys, pretty funny!

PA4.17.09 @ 11:35am

and im pretty sure i’ve heard that piano note at the end… maybe Muse?

Kevin4.17.09 @ 11:49am

No
Note is the end of “A Day in the Life”
It’s actually like 4 pianos

That was great!
especially the blond doctor

Kevin4.17.09 @ 11:50am

So he came back from Vietnam and became a hippy? The blond hair is Eddie’s right?

Don Yuda4.17.09 @ 12:31pm

PA? Muse? I’m gonna slap you!

Lore4.17.09 @ 4:46pm

Kevin4.19.09 @ 10:30pm

it’s so nice to see Wolthorp’s and Pendergrast’s mustaches again!
especially in this economy…

Hich4.20.09 @ 6:42am

Kevin’s comment just made me laugh out loud.

Ellie4.21.09 @ 7:02pm

Hey! At the beginning when Eddie Dawson sits down at the table with Rose Swan, you can clearly see that Eddie is wearing skater shoes, even though it’s 1958.


Back to the Future much?

Glowing Face Man5.11.09 @ 6:54pm

There’s something deep and profound about this one…

Slurve5.14.09 @ 9:06pm

The “note” as you guys are calling it sounds like the intro to Losing Touch by the Killers.

Sylvain Racicot5.17.09 @ 9:48pm

Wow, lots of work in this one. Very touching. I cried a little when she died.

lobo5.19.09 @ 1:47am

quite possibly the best 5 seconds I’ve ever lived….next to losing my virginity…

Sprayette5.25.09 @ 6:45pm

You only lasted 5 seconds?

GRAEME5.28.09 @ 4:05pm

defacid5.28.09 @ 4:51pm

The note is from “A Day in the Life” by The Beatles. I’ve heard that note many times listening to my Beatles folder on repeat for about 24 hours straight. raspberry

Kate6.07.09 @ 10:47pm

A genuinely good film, with more depth than the usual.  Ya done good.  And it was fun.

obeythepenguin6.24.09 @ 6:52am

So how long did it take to film this one?

davis6.24.09 @ 1:17pm

sounds like the the start of Ocean Machines song Bastard

Doctor Robert7.19.09 @ 4:12pm

Epic.

And that’s The Beatles, dipshits.

FunkooZegoida8.12.09 @ 8:47am

It must be fun with that guy!

Shady8.29.09 @ 11:11pm

There’s a blooper in this. He went to war before he got drafted.

Kevin10.12.09 @ 9:19pm

I’m still happy with this.

Kevin11.18.09 @ 4:47pm

Yup, still happy.

Matthew12.30.09 @ 12:51pm

I appreciate the Beatles reference.

MineTruly1.24.10 @ 9:03pm

I love how you guys can identify a Beatles song from a 0.2 second clip.

MPowered1.25.10 @ 9:59pm

A table is set for three. Eddie, Rose, and a red gallon bottle of detergent. Each is rationed one large floret of broccoli.

Meaning?

cronin_burger2.02.10 @ 10:18pm

looked like woolthrop at the end there

John Anonymous2.03.10 @ 2:37pm

FIRST YAY!

Kushie2.06.10 @ 9:06pm

The end was the finishing chord of “Day in the Life” from the Beatles. Made the video infinitely more awesome. smile

BobBobman4.23.10 @ 7:48pm

So, he met her, went to war, came back, got married, had a kid, he cheated or she thought he did, they had a kid who graduated, she died, and now he’s alone and remanicing

The Sentient Houseplant5.20.10 @ 5:34pm

It looked fun

Derjafd6.14.10 @ 10:54pm

The sound at the end is the final note of A Day in a Life from the Beatles.  Which is really adequate

Michael6.27.10 @ 12:37am

They should have let the video run for the next 40 seconds as the beatles intended

Solodude6.29.10 @ 6:44pm

That last second there there is a note struck i know its from a song, i cant remember for the life of me what it is

edenjoy7.10.10 @ 5:04pm

Did anyone else notice, they’re eating broccoli and Clorox?

BakedPotato7.13.10 @ 7:34pm

At one point a girl is just flicking you off. XD

Arnster7.15.10 @ 9:44am

JakemaniaNG7.21.10 @ 5:57pm
