A Very Short Movie



And now for your entertainment . . . "Steve," a 17 minute movie. Click on the above video, or go to:  Steve at the YouTube site. It's a short story, on film.

"Steve" stars Colin Firth as the title character, It also stars Kiera Knightley and Tom Mison, and it was written by Rupert Friend. Trivia: take note that all four of these people have acted in major productions of Pride and Prejudice. Firth was Darcy in the 1995 production; from the 2005 version Kiera Knigtley was Elizabeth Bennet and Rupert Friend was George Wickham; and Tom Mison was Mr Bingley in Lost in Austen.

There is another fabulous Stars in Shorts that comes and goes from YouTube titled "Friend Request Pending," which stars Judi Dench, Penny Ryder, Philip Jackson, Tom Hiddleston, & John MacMillan. Currently it appears to be off YouTube, but I will continue to look for it because people keep putting it up before it gets whisked off. If it shows up again, I'll post it.

So far I haven't been able to track down any of the other 5 short films from Stars in Shorts.
