Just saw a thing on the news about this

Dean - "I'm not happy about it. But I got to move on. So I'm gonna keep doing what we do...while I still can. And I'd like you to be there with me."

Sam - "I'm your brother, Dean, if you ever need to talk about anything with anybody, you got someone right here next to you."

The Voorman Problem is now available on iTunes.  It's a great short film, perhaps my favorite one that Martin has done.  Everyone should check it out!

Oh, that's excellent news. I hope to be able to catch it somehow outside of iTunes.

I quite forgot about this for a while as I didn't see it up anywhere, then when did, seemed a high price for a short film.  But recalled it the other day and checked again - now it's on Amazon and iTunes for just 2 bucks.  Yeah, a bit for only 12 minutes, but it's pretty darn good!  Love the 'who is a god' question posed, and perfect acting, of course.  Have many of you seen it by now?
