Where have you been?

Uploaded by: VendettaMan
Video Description:
This film was not for profit and was just a project for my "Intro to Fiction" class.
For 30 extra credit points we had to make a short film based on one of the short stories we read and discussed in class. I chose my favorite story that I have read several times.
It's one of those psychological thrillers.
It is based on the short story "Where are you going, where have you been?" by Joyce carol Oates
My girlfriend wishes to state that she is a theatre actress and NOT a film actress.
My girlfriend did a fantastic job editing this together. It was shot in one day over a period of nine hours and there was a half hour worth of footage. When we both saw the finished product we were so excited.
There is some langauge but nothing too bad.
Originally, my cousin was going to play the villian but he had to drop out due to work and time constraints. My girlfriend, as you can see, plays the protaganist.
"Where are you going, where have you been?" remains the property of the author Joyce carol Oates. When you get a chance, please read it. It's a great story.
Enjoy the film.
P.S. I'll tell you guys what my class thought of it and if I got the extra credit points.
(Update-jan. 6th, 2008. I know I never told you guys this. I forgot to get back to this video. My teacher ended up giving me the full 30 points. In fact, he liked it so much, that he shows it to his friends and he plans on showing it to his future students. He also wants to know if me and my girl can adapt another story for him. One that was written by Ernest Hemmingway. We'll see what happens. I'm hopeful.)
