Yesterday, New York City had its second largest blizzard in history. I was stuck in my neighborhood in Queens all day, so I decided rather than watching movies all day, I would make a movie. It started as a regular film and then as I was making it, I got the idea to make a spoof of a French New Wave film like those of Truffaut or Godard back in the 1960s, which peddled heavily in existentialism and avant garde techniques. The result is something fairly ridiculous and silly, but I had a great time. While I speak some French, I used Google Translate to help translate the English script I wrote into beautiful French. The only thing missing from this film is me dressed as a knight playing chess on a beach with "Death."

Enjoy!
