With the shop having a legacy close to one hundred years, owner Liam Finnegan [top] shares his story of being in a family of barbers, his regular customers and how he became the owner of the wonderful world of Waldorf.”

A short film about a woman with a talking vagina, for The 48 Hour Film Project Dublin 2013.
Starring Meabh O’Leary and Niall Cutler. Featuring Megan Woods as The Vagina.
Written/Directed/Shot by Kate Dolan, Megan Woods, Lina M Schulz and Evelyn Suttle. Edited by Kate Dolan.
Kate writes:
“Last weekend myself and three other ladies made a film about a talking vagina for the 48HFP Dublin edition. It may give a much-needed pick-me-up to people awaiting the Budget and/or people who are stuffed into a Dart carriage this morning.”
Ryan Kwanten (him from Home & Away or more recently True Blood) stars in this short set in the Spider-Man universe. A French documentary crew follow larger-than-life crime journalist Eddie Brock and get a little more than they bargained for.
There is of course a post credits bonus scene.
Producer Adi Shankar gave a spoiler filled interview about the background to the short.
A nicely executed mock trailer for mock movie One Blanket Bank Guarantee Later,
Based on real events and Anglo tapes.

No, come back.
It’s only sixty seconds.
Laura Gaynor, the student journalist who revealed what tay the Taoiseach takes (rooibus, indeed) earlier this month, writes:
“My brother Robert made a film called ‘The Cannon’ for the 30 Minute Film Festival at the Galway Film Fleadh. He was 12 when he made it and is 13 now. It’s a festival within a festival where 30 60-second films are screened to a live audience. His film took home the judges award.”
Fair play, in fairness.
A HD copy of Robert Morgan’s wonderfully creepy award-winning 2001 short film ‘nabbed off Stage 6 before it went under’ by Youtuber HonorNecris.
The tale itself was inspired by a recurring nightmare experienced by the director’s older sister.
Full screen. HD. Lights off.
Sweet dreams.

A one minute short directed by Mick Quinn who sez:
This is for anyone who’s ever worked in a Restaurant, Hotel, Bar or Pub…
Nice.
Made 10 years ago, but gaining viral traction now, Yu Ming, Is Ainm Dom (or My Name Is Yu Ming) sketches, in a scant 13 minutes, the story of a bored Chinese clerk, who, with a leap of faith and a spin of the globe, sets his sights on Ireland, where his research tells him the language is Gaelic.
