Title: Bass Ackwards
Added: Jan 19, 2010
Author: BassAckwardsMovie
Duration: 101:14
Description:
Yes, in Bass Ackwards, a man drives a 76 Volkswagen van across America. No, the film isnt mired with the tired mechanics of a typical road movie. This utterly original, lyrical, and visually exciting adventure has such a light touch that it quietly sneaks up and tugs you into an overpowering appreciation of being human.When humble Linas, kicked off of his friends couch and spurned by his lover, finds a forgotten van on a llama farm outside Seattle, he begins lurching east with nothing to lose. Slowly, the road eases him out of his relentless longing and into the moment. As his encounters with enigmatic characters take on subtly transcendent qualities, his shame and discomfort at being alone gradually give way to self-acceptance and connection. The dented, off-kilter vehicle, which valiantly, amazingly endures the journey, becomes a colorful metaphor for the human condition—our tenacity and hopefulness always tinged with imperfection.

Jan 22, 2010 - Freakin' great film! And thank you, YouTube, for providing independent filmmakers with a much-needed avenue for distribution! It's pretty dire out here so we can use all the help we can get.

Jan 22, 2010 - I remember when youtube was free and that's the reason why it got mass appeal. If we want to rent movies, we have netflix, blockbusters, and various other means. I don't understand the point of this...too bad.

Jan 22, 2010 - People need to stop complaining, this is a way for indie developers to distribute their material and make back the money they put into their products. This is not just a randomly submitted user video. Indie film developer need these new distribution avenues, and all of you complaining are the reason most great indie films never get noticed.

Jan 22, 2010 - its a movie thats not out yet douche bag. YouTube is doing you a service by allowing you to watch it online without having to get off your ass. we've always had to pay for movies.
ImSpencerTucker Says:
Jan 22, 2010 - You've always had to pay to watch movies, nothing new. It's pay for this and watch it-- or no movie service at all. You pay for netflix. I'm glad they've integrated this.

Jan 22, 2010 - I think it's cool youtube is bringing indie sundance films somewhere that people can see them. Even if I'd rather they were free or ad supported.Though perhaps it's a bit of throwing pearls before swine, from the general reaction.

Jan 22, 2010 - if i pay for a movie its either i on it on blu ray / dvd or itunes movies. a youtube movie is dumb and $4 for a crappy non pro movie. sundance is lame its for the directors and actors that couldnt make it big.
