Beer & Cigarettes

An awkward comedy featuring two teens trying to prove to each other they are cool.

Heavily influenced by Jim Jarmusch's "Coffee and Cigarettes", our first foray into comedy featured an age old combo - beer, cigarettes, and a hot tub. 

Originally written as a 5-6 minute short to test a camera for our upcoming film "A Howl in the Night", it expanded into much more when the actors arrived to rehearse. Cole and Ian brought excellent improvisation skills and despite the longer runtime, we had to cut quite a few moments in order to keep the pacing acceptable.
