David Lynch wrote this short film to test two different types of videotape stock for the American Film Institute.
You can check this out in "The Short films of David Lynch". I found this short extremely intelligent. In "The Short films of David Lynch" it is shown twice, but is not the same action, only the text is the same.
For me, in the first time I just couldn't stop staring at the nurse, who is in the only place on screen where action is happening.
The second time, what she is is "thinking" gets more relevant to the audience, but we find out that it has no connection at all to her legs and to the nurse.
In the end I figured out that I had just watched two different short movies! It's a great feeling for those who like the art of making movies!
