The Lottery

[Baltimore Shooter]

I just found out that one of the best short films of all time, "The Lottery" is on YouTube. I haven't seen this since high school. Would love to see a clearer version that what is on the net, but for now I guess I'll have to take what I can get.

It's like the "Tales From The Darkside" series before it even existed. Based on Shirly Jackson's 1948 short story, it 's about one small town's version of population control. You'll notice a young Ed Begley, Jr as one of the town's residents.

YouTube has it broken into two 9min parts. Enjoy.

Wow...there is some old memories. I saw that such a long time ago. I remember the clattering of the projector as the film slipped into my memory bank.
