I work in the financial services industry. I would like to thank Nick Porter, who played himself superbly. And my wonderful producer, Catherine O'Hare.

Good reminder of the banality of 'work'.

I go to school in the weekdays, some family rutine in weekends.

Paul Vortex
You should set this up in a Gallery... and loop it constantly... forever. Social Commentary.

Nicely captured and paced! And sad. Hopefully it will serve as a warning or a wake-up call - there can be more to life, after all.

If this is your life I strongly recommend you change it not film it!

Philip Lickley
The joke at the end is great and made me want to watch the beginning again... inspired!

a true story...makes us think

Me
Cool, though its what alot of us go through, perhaps its a stark reminder that we all should be doing something better with this life of ours!

Scot Kenwood
Hitchcock said film is life with the dull bits removed. This is where all the dull bits ended up.

Jolyon Thompson
What James Joyce would have done if someone had said to him "Don't write a book, make a film". Genius.

Kirsty
Isn't that the point of this film? The only exciting thing in his repetitive life seems to be the ironingboard cover! It's asking, what's the point?

Mike
Hitchcock said film is life with the dull bits removed. This film shows that even when you do that, it still takes some padding to get it up to sixty seconds.

R. Dmouse
Nicely captures the feeling of a whole day in one minute. But why? No plot, no twist: almost as boring as a whole day.

i have to say that i never thought life could be so interestin..... .............no t. it was good yes. but the subject was lame. if you think about it, its what most people do eveyday. i think we know what we do everyday-we don't need reminding. i'm sorry. i just don't like it. well done any way though.

Bob
A master class from Mr Porter. The best performance since that of his director in 'Dear Santa' - check it out, its in the one minute list.

Mr G Anga
common is the right word

Richard Evans
Incredibly moving. For such a short piece to have such an epic sweep is an astonishing achievement.
