Jay & Mark Duplass - This is John (2003)

[@RootSuitMan]

what's funny is that the first voicemail recording was the best

[@zakiatita9071]

Mark said this was the worst audio Sundance has ever had in their festival to this day. Love this short.

[@Cadesertgirl]

As someone who has suffered from and anxiety from early childhood, I related to this 100%! Something as simple as leaving a simple recording like this or simply saying “here” and raising your hand in class when your name is being called out for attendance, can be exactly like this. Overthinking can cause real damage emotionally. I’ve had days when because of my overthinking, I wouldn’t leave my room. I’d just sleep so that I could shut it off. Loved the video!

[@audriam.3878]

I hope you had an amazing day today! Know you are amazing and wonderful :)

[@Cadesertgirl]

Audria M. Thank you so much! 💕

[@erickarivas1223]

Omg these exact same things happens to me too 🥺

[@Cadesertgirl]

Ericka Rivas I started to go to a therapist, it helped out so much. I am way better now, the anxiety isn’t completely gone. There are days where I begin to feel like this again, but it isn’t an everyday thing anymore. Things do get better ☺️

[@cloverconnections]

Featured on NPR today. This is a day in the life of someone filled with self-doubt and/or anxiety. I can relate!

[@1LankyLady]

Love this. Laughed heartily with self recognition through out.

[@violetion]

Proof that you don't need millions of dollars, hell, you don't even need great equipment to make a good short movie. This is one of my favourites.

[@adelaidefyffe2216]

Thank you @BreneBrown for the great interview that prompted me to watch this. I laughed and cried and ugly cried and felt like i belong

[@KarolaineZ]

I got stressed and laugh at the same time. I just can relate with it in weird deep ways. Thanks for making this, Duplass Brothers.

[@Technique1995]

Wow, this is great film making.

[@TKFOH]

I love Mark Duplass, and his story is a great inspiration and motivator for me personally. However, one thing that is often overlooked is the fact that he's an amazing actor. If he was not a good actor, and simply a self-motivated filmmaker with subpar acting skills, I doubt he would have gotten to where he is today.

[@SaraStar7373]

RIVALS isn’t he? One of my favourites, he’s so fantastic in the two Creep movies

[@samanthaalessandra94]

Love Mark Duplass on Tammy, and his voicework on Big Mouth

[@Silverdrake45]

Un bon moment m'a amené ici ^^

[@carlton2361]

Made for $3... Tiktok brought me here

[@solowonabeat]

Was referred to watch this video by another KZbin creator. What a prime example of “it’s not what you have, it’s what you do with it”. Also, I spent 2 hours trying to record the perfect voicemail message last night and eventually threw my hands in the air, said “fuck this shit” and left it to the stock message lmao.

[@leahblack591]

An awesome piece of art. I was moved when he said “I’m so sorry.” It could mean so many different things, but I so know that feeling.

[@ACTHdan]

The famous $3 film...superb 👌🏼

[@MrEjblanco]

Pretty sure that wine costs more then 3$

[@jacobduperon472]

I love this. I think i almost cried from laughter the first time I saw this

[@ricardomartin559]

I will now make a film. I thought I needed thousands and thousands of dollars to do it but obviously I only need a camera and an idea. I have both. BOOM! Thanks

[@SeeBrake]

soooo, did you make it????

[@Hmm...Whats-Their-Name]

Yeah dude, did you?

[@JiminyHCriquet]

Wheres the film!

[@ZachRussellComedy]

COME ON

[@Stranger_In_The_Alps]

Another empty promise made by a fake filmmaker full of wasted potential

[@ljw2909]

How did they ever get inside my head? This makes me feel less alone.

[@openyourmind3763]

Me when I have to record an out office greeting at work, minus the wine of course! That comes later. Well done, great nostalgic piece!!!

[@samanthaalessandra94]

Jay Duplass' kitchen reminds me of my old house.. I miss it so much

[@lorraineharrell3314]

Incredibly, achingly real, funny, and sad. We all have our moments!

[@yakimarich8519]

Literally what I go through every time I’m making an audition tape.

[@Fernando4Mark]

That’s all that matters, no cinematography good lighting or even decent audio. Just damn good content. I’d watch more shorts if they were half as good as this 😅

[@pgoody]

Thanks for uploading! I could totally see someone present day,now, having a quarter life crisis going through this trying to leave a voicemail greeting on their new smartphone...

[@mikekillagreen9432]

More like a text. Like 50 drafts. Lol

[@mayamircheva8998]

This was pure genius!

[@Guz1316]

His acting is amazing! Creep is my favorite horror movie

[@dissolvemusicofficial7652]

From someone who has crippling OCD, this is tragic.....and yet hilarious

[@simianec4507]

Its wine AND mint for me :)

[@SaraStar7373]

This is so fantastic, it’s like now he’s deleted his old one he’s in too deep and has to come up with something decent but he just can’t. AKA me every day

[@brunovieira3692]

Best movie about OCD

[@Szederp]

The guy is a legit psycho...just watch him in Creep or The One I love. One of the most talented actors of the millenium.

[@Čhelsea_Čhainsaw]

And so underrated!

[@kaushikch6808]

Yes very nice actor... Love his movies a lot

[@stinkobinko]

Check out how creepy he is in S2 of Goliath on Amazon. I love everything that man does.

[@CinematicComics]

texas is the new hotbed for filmmakers-what a great concept-wish i'd thought of that-Duplassity!!!

[@jesserooney7191]

This fucking guy. I love this guy. Also I found this very, very relatable.

[@lesliecruz6825]

Gracias por subirlo.

[@dwanderful1]

Awesome

[@4kjm]

poor guy. I'm glad he had a breakthrough

[@J___0926]

So this is how he went crazy in Creep(2014)

[@patsweeney0]

See the August 2015 issue of Wired. Great story of how this got made.

[@ThomasDavis5213]

Oh so this is where they get that laugh from on all the tictoks...

[@bombdiggity8179]

Love it! Awesome channel! Can't wait to watch what else you guys come out with.

[@Aioriaszr]

Where´s that dead pixel at?

[@Grnvolpe]

+Santiago ZR Right?? I'm very disappointed

[@PotterPhoto]

+Carlos Gallon at 5:49 it's very noticeable in the lower right quad.

[@Ranter_]

Yeah, still don't see it... This probably the biggest reason why I looked for this short film online XD

[@lordytp616]

can you explain this?

[@JohnnyWoodard]

Mark said the camera sensor had a dead pixel. I assume it was mostly corrected in the transfer to film, but you can still see it @5:42 (it's easier to spot if you watch in motion, rather than on pause).

[@JoeySinko]

Thanks for this! I really enjoyed it.

[@untamedblu]

Thanks for posting this!

[@bctinio]

That actor looks familiar. Is he the same guy who played Josef in Creep?

[@yashwardhantripathi864]

Yes

[@jerryp6001]

I think he was Brian in The League

[@melissatwisdale1785]

Perfectionism Exemplar

[@tjsweeney4858]

Here after reading their book

[@mdmdwha]

i regret to inform you i am not home

[@BuddhaReflex]

Check it out guys. A film movement predicated off of the subversion of unneccesary cinematic fundamentals such as cinematography, lighting, audio, writing. Who needs these things??

[@jonnyleeai]

genius - very relatable indeed

[@diefakepadparadscha1490]

john just like me

[@michaelcullen5308]

In his book he says they thought of putting it on KZbin. But KZbin didn't launch until 2005. Mandela effect?

[@anyo_mations]

Oohh that's actually kind of spooky

[@alejandrko17]

probably just misremembered when they wanted to put it on youtube

[@CrodolookslikeFrody]

4:08 is a mood

[@MegaThurstonator]

I could tell he was actually laughing.

[@No-Mars]

This was the point he decided to go live in the woods, and change his name to Josef.

[@clustoring]

hilarious brilliant

[@jjaniero]

funniest 7 minute film ever made

[@jacquessegismond4164]

This is the guy from the movie “Creep” right?

[@Čhelsea_Čhainsaw]

WOW!

[@mothbits]

This Is Me

[@ENn4X0R]

Marina Rollman brought me here 😄

[@cmoiehoui277]

Me too

[@TheBarbiegirl50]

What living alone does to a dude

[@georgeandraos2509]

woah

[@mr.dome.gaming7103]

Nope, that’s Aaron

[@backabacka4051]

[@EricCKeys]

"kids, big ben, parliament"

[@MattHaynie]

Your outgoing is flippn pinpoint

[@savantartists5273]

🎥❤️👈🔥👉❤️🎬

[@snackwrap160]

One of the weirdest people if I have ever watched, Mark is just strange

[@sorosw2980]

Where is the dead pixel?

[@Matt_Mosley1983]

Wait...they ran an editing company when they made this...and they didn't edit it themselves? And it took *2* people to edit? 🤨

[@shleeyy]

His phone number changed haha

[@alexandra_jean]

He is a great actor and I mean this with no disrespect but I do not at all see what is so great about this film

[@MatthewMan1997]

Would this get into Sundance in 2019?

[@thegreatpapyrus2306]

Beasty Matt it already did back in 2003

[@chicharitaqpix]

Nah

[@swordierre9341]

This short is good, but the audio and film quality are lacking, if it were me, I would’ve taken more time to iron out the kinks. Like a couple more takes wouldn’t hurt, just to get it right.

[@frnkisco]

Tik Tok brought me here

[@spenn6942]

It's... John Ashford

[@TonyMacroni633]

who came here for the dead pixel???

[@mono90286]

The origin of a serial killer.

[@jakesatov7454]

Is he a Pisces? Asking for a friend...

[@hankhillsurethra]

The duplass bros make films that are pure ass

[@legendaydin]

🤡

[@javiersalinas5642]

I don't get it

[@wubsers1701]

:/

[@miroslavcervenka3283]

Try leaving a message.

[@gemasanmiguel3692]

I don’t know about this piece you should check Me out on Cockroach Blues

[@ahtepacholiztli]

Yo grabando un audio xd

[@Qu4ttroStudio]

Consider taking the easy way out.

[@rhys9506]

This is so fucking funny I feel so bad for you if you don't get the humour

[@legendaydin]

i dont know man, this guy kind of seems like a creep. 🤨

[@tiaramartinez5773]

I don’t find it funny BYE- 🏃🏻‍♀️

[@JA-lt8bb]

wow. how is this considered good. it was spectacular for Boring the shit out of me in 7 minutes.

[@xxoxia]

It's a dramatic conflict with comedic overtones. You can almost feel his frustration while watching, and see how his mind just depletes by the end. And, it makes you laugh at the same time, while making you feel stress, frustration, and discomfort.

[@JA-lt8bb]

i first want to say thank you - you are the first time i have been replied to online - PEACE

[@xxoxia]

Hahaha, really?

[@Daniel-xu6kd]

@@xxoxia lol talk about an over stretch.

[@Bjr878787]

I didn’t get it at all. It’s just a voice message. What’s the big deal? Maybe he shouldn’t drink. 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@Bjr878787]

Got me! 🙄

[@Philinspaces]

An absolute snorefest.

[@MCPetruk]

Terrible. What's all the fuss?

[@johnjenkins3753]

Dunno. The Papa Johns magnet on the fridge ruined it for me. Never, ever eat at Papa Johns. facebook.com/StopTheTeaParty/photos/a.609599295740011.1073741824.502122049821070/770253083007964/
