I was going to write you some good old BPN content today, but instead I’ve done you one better. My buddy Phil directed a student film back when I was in college that me, Aaron (who posts here) and Justin (who also posts here occasionally) starred in that was a work of genius. I give you…

The Holy Grail.

The movie stars Aaron as Robert, though basically playing himself, who discovers what is apparently the Holy Grail. Believing himself to be immortal from drinking from it, he goes on a series of antics (well, I count two antics) to prove that he can never die.

I make an appearance as the guy who almost runs Aaron over, and then as a funky dancer in the party scene.

I’m sure that most of this will get lost in translation (a “you had to be there” sort of thing), but hopefully you’ll love it for its intention/not-so-intentional comedy anyway.

My favorite parts:

• Aaron’s facial expressions whenever there’s a closeup of him.
• “Not only will it save squirrels’ lives, but it will help the public transit system.”
• The fact that there’s a bottle named “Drug X,” and Justin happened to have it next to his chair.
• Me entering the squirrel scene blasting Eminem, in the process hearing one or two f-bombs.
• The last shot. Come on, priceless.

None of us are ever going to be actors. The beginning’s a little slow, so give it some time.
