This great short was made by Jos Stelling for Regina Ziegler Filmproduktion's Erotic Tale series. It is erotic all right - but don't expect to see any boobs there. Highly recommended.
Jos Stelling: Although Jos Stelling did not receive any special cinematography education, he is admired not only by the spectators but also by his colleagues and critics who have included two of his movies into the number of the one hundred most important movies of the XXth century. He has shot 12 movies, the most important of them being the Illusionist, The Pointsman (De Wisselwachter) and The Flying Dutchman.
This director is simply incredible. I saw Jos Stelling's film THE POINTSMAN some years ago, and I'm not sure I would have believed a feature length film without the spoken word could be made. But he did it, and it was great! So then, would a shorter film in the same format be easier to make? You might think so. But Mark Twain once remarked (paraphrased) that he could do a 2 hour speech on most any subject with little advance preparation, but to properly do a 15 minute speech might take at least a week to properly prepare. Regardless, he has a wonderful time in a train station, mostly in the waiting room. The camera is mainly on a Casanova of a man as his gaze goes well beyond the personal boundaries of the women he is, . . . well, to put it bluntly, lusting after. It reminded me of the cartoon postcard of a slick-talking guy next to a woman asking her "Do you mind if I undress you with my eyes?" and she is thinking {'well, I guess it's better than having you touch me"] Whether or not this guy knows he's gone beyond the bounds of propriety I'll leave to your contemplation. But his come-uppance is quite delightful.
