About this film:

1:16 | 3.4 | 11,055 plays | 3/1/07

Director: Andrew S. Allen | United States

Do those crosswalk buttons actually work? Or do they merely exist to make us feel like we have some semblance of control on chaotic street corners? The guy in this artfully crafted film finds out real fast just how wild things can get at a busy crosswalk.

The point is either so lame that I can't pick it up, or so brilliant that my little brain isn't suitable for acknowledging it. I thinks it's an effort, but not more. It does however features some rather good effects

That was pretty good. I wi***** was longer though.

we are limited, yet expected to 'succeed'. not only are we limited but we are set up with obstacles, and not until we overcome these obstacles, and stop giving in to these limits will we be able to trully succeed. very cool by the way.

that was pretty good. I liked how it kept my attention and it was short. The ending was kool 2. 4 a sec, I thought it would end kinda dull but it didn't. This idea was pretty original. good job.
