A Relationship in Four Days (2007) (Sundance Shorts 2008: Comedy)

There's not a lick of humor here -- just a suggestion of smug banter as they propose a game called verbal polo -- and barely a moment when the male and female leads aren't smoking like chimneys. She's pretty and smart; he's lazy and full of himself; how quickly they fall for each other is a puzzle (other than a desire for someone to control). Failing to find humor, the only meaning I could divine in this film short is a possible interpretation of his statuette. 26 min. 4 stars.
