Lock your squinters’ seaglobes on this tale of one passion pair, a pre-now-love-buddy, a field mouse-eating food penguin, and a lost purr pet in a bizarre faux-throwback short that premiered at SXSW earlier this year starring Southlake graduate (now L.A.-dwelling) Lexy Hulme. The short’s surreality is enjoyable enough, but the flood of real, fake, and antiquated language makes it a tongue twisting display of virtuosic onomatopoesis for all ages (not really). This is how I imagine a Terry Gilliam adaptation of Lewis Carroll’s Jabberwocky would look. A salute of the person paws to the old Culture Vulture for the refer. Pour yourself a glass of absinthe and enjoy.

You mean THIS Terry Gilliam adaptation of Jabberwocky?
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0076221/
Very nice find!
The first video was produced at Sundance and is just as magical. Might help to watch it before this one: http://hitrecord.org/records/40939

Both are incredible. That’s no jibberjack.
