Bottle Rocket
After watching the original short film, this actually is better than the actual movie. This script and story is perfect for the short film format. I mean the pacing felt way better, I think the character motivations were clearer because they're just thieves. I think the screen of Anthony stealing the wallet from the car did more for this short film than whatever was done in the feature. This has a lot of cute indie short film charm.
Only thing is I wish they showed the actual bookstore robbery.
