Some dude found an undeveloped roll of film in Prospect Park and made a charming video in an attempt to track down the original photographer(s). The whole thing seems a little fake (oh Internet, you should be called Skepticalofeverythingnownet) but fake can still be DELIGHTFUL.

  1. Looks like a spec film for This American Life.

  2. That reminds me, has anyone seen my mom? I left her at the beach a couple weeks back over Christmas.

  3. Ugh. If I called that “twee” he’d probably take it as a compliment.

  4. The Mystery Roll: Starring Matthew Mcconaughey and Gwenyth Paltrow as 20-something white college graduates who move to a gritty post-industrial neighborhood in Brooklyn to pursue their dreams. When Zev (Mcconaughey) accidentally leaves his latest masterpieces on a bench in McCarren Park, it is up to Paltrow to use the film, her charming haircut, and knowledge of analog noise bands to win the man of her dreams. Directed by Michael Bay. Music by John Williams.

  5. Hmm, get James Merendino attached to direct with music by Vampire Weekend and I bet you could get this greenlighted.

  6. Not one dick pick? FAKE!

  7. Nope. Not buying this. If you find a roll of film and have it developed, you are not trying to find the rightful owners. You are hoping there’s naked pictures of somebody on there. End of story.

  8. Um, dude. $26 will not buy a ticket to Belgium.

  9. This gives me hope that someone will find my disposable camera that I lost when my junior high class went to Virginia. Only a slide show could magically capture my boredom at Colonial Williamsburg

    • I have about 40 rolls of undeveloped film that captures 4 years of boredom from when I went to college in Colonial Williamsburg. I think it’s best left undeveloped.

  10. I lost a flash card in Australia with about 500 pictures on it, most of my trip, maybe there’s a video for me too.

  11. “I’m not a photography critic or anything like that, but I will critique all this photography”.

  12. I really hope that the people AREN’T European and are from some town in the middle of the country. This Kids dream will quickly turn into a nightmare.

  13. “that part about the ducks in new york”

  14. Once I found some girl’s student ID on the ground, and I looked up her email address on the school’s directory and sent her an email about it, and I thought, “She’ll be so thankful and we’ll be friends, etc.!” But when I got it back to her, she said, “Great! You just saved me $20 bucks [to replace the card]. Thanks. Bye!” The same thing will happen here.

  15. Spoiler Alert: I know the guy who made this and it’s not fake.

    Hmmm… maybe the people who’s film it is should make a video about HIS video, critique his narrative and ponder who HE is. I would love to see an endless circle of videos pondering who made the previous video.
