The Librarians: Director's Cut

I watched this short comedy as part of a pack of films from the Paris Short Film Festival. It is an amusing short about boredom (and oblivious co-workers). Shekinah Lawrence is fun to watch. Trapped at her counter she manages to amuse herself (with what is literally at hand) and the film's audience with her facial expressions and body movements. The librarian uses the black counter as her stage -- and the director uses that same counter to frame the librarian, using color/capturing subtle movements. It is an interesting combination of an almost silent movie (the bored librarian) with the other librarian's inane conversation providing a soundtrack the bored librarian can riff on. A fun little film!
