48 Hour Film Challenge - Pur Entry

So we, like Jane P, entered this 48 hr thing. Given the following to include:

GENRE - A buddy movie.
CHARACTER - Jamie Delgado - a banker
LINE - 'I hope it isn't swine flu.'
PROP - An orange.

After some warm exchanges on Friday evening, we eventually opted to make the original buddy movie: Adam & Steve. It's a forbidden fruit allegory. With a dose of creative licence. Yeah. Well. Here it is:

My Australian satellite broadband provider can't open your link. Not on YouTube? Buddy movie with forbidden fruit allegory? Does that mean it's gay themed?

As you know I really did enjoy this - I've watched it a few times now - I love the visuals, the music, the acting and what a great use of oranges.

Good luck on Monday!

This is awesome- can't believe you got it done in 48 hours. Some tiny tweaks and I think it'd be great for Funny or Die... Have you thought about submitting?

Nope - they're just good friends.

Prob a bit long winded and reliant on knowing the parameters: the inclusion of the line etc. What tweaks do you suggest? Think we can chop a lot of the beginning. Anyway cheers for checking out.
