The One O'Clock

A couple with severe marital difficulties enter the office of their counselor and just begin screaming and unloading on each other--so much so that the poor guy behind the desk doesn't have a chance to say anything. When he tries, they just continue arguing. Finally, he's able to get them to stop--at which point the film takes a lovely little twist.

The idea behind THE ONE O'CLOCK and the final punch line were great--very clever indeed. However, there are some exceptionally crude lines in this little short that are bound to shock most viewers and I don't know why they had to have the lines in the short--especially because if they delete one line in particularly, this is a short you could show your kids. But, as is, this is a short you'll want to watch when the kids are asleep or visiting friends or are locked safely away in their cages. Too bad. With a tiny, tiny bit of editing, this film could easily earn a score of 8.
