And really, that’s my only criticism: I’d have liked to see the finished stunt footage juxtaposed with the behind-the-scenes shots, to see what it is they’re achieving. I know that could’ve been a trial and a half to accomplish, and for a five minute short I understand the decision to not go that route, but it still would’ve been cool to see. As it stands, we get two gregarious guys with a uniquely entertaining back-and-forth, talking about their uncommon job. I think the filmmakers knew precisely what they had, and how long they could work with it, and made the short film accordingly; it would be easy for something like this to go longer than would warrant, but they hit the sweet spot all around.
