Don't Make Eye Contact (2003)

Full Overview

Done in the silent film tradition of Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton, "Don't Make Eye Contact" is a short film asking who is the last person you would want to run into outside your neighborhood grocery store. We've all seen them and if there's one thing they have in common it's that they all want something from us. "Don't Make Eye Contact" starts off with an innocent Girl Scout selling cookies and progresses slowly down the social ladder of vagabonds and chancers who set up shop outside heavily trafficked stores. Eventually we reach the very last person you would want to see and, try though you may, you cannot avoid making eye contact. Written by Sam Frazier, Jr.
