Yes, yes, film critics have raved about “The Sneeze” for fifty years. It was director Rowena Shoemaker’s “bold statement of commitment” to the Observational Cinema ideal. Yet, several times, this same film shamelessly resorts to unnatural voice over rather than finding the cinematic truth of the moment. Was that the “rough edges of the avant-garde” showing through… or rank hypocrisy?

This is probably my favorite short. I am a preschool teacher and have set up many rooms and I can confirm that bathroom access is a SERIOUS issue to be considered carefully!
My mother, a kindergarten teacher, watched this with me when it first came out and said “You laugh but we are required to draw up room plans and have rationalizations for why something is near the bathroom or show how many books can fit on the shelf.“ So this is shockingly still relevant to the 21st-century!
i helped my mom set up her teacher's rooms sometimes. the kitchen play area having so many areas where kids can hide while you're distracted is horrifying. someone *will* eat something they're not supposed to behind those shelves
Intercut it with scenes of one of the teachers' loved ones being violently murdered and it becomes a tension-building bit of dramatic irony. Make it a funeral and it becomes a deep commentary on how we waste our lives.
I still think this needs to be made into a full length movie staring Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway. They would surely get Oscar nominations... I have no doubt.
I'd probably watch that version...if it were ALSO narrated by the guys at RiffTrax as well, because without their hilarious riffing, I can't imagine how excited I'd be, I mean, this could make someone's entire year, if I knew just what the hell was going on. But I'm not sure if Anne Hathaway would be good enough to be playing the younger, but seriously attractive teacher, but it'd be worth a shot at watching, at least once. Probably not as exciting as we'd all want it to be, but I can imagine it winning something at least, and maybe making somewhat less boring(besides this entire riff by itself, I mean).
@10:49 wow I remember seeing my elementary school janitor using that throw up sawdust stuff. He was also missing a finger so he probably already shook hands with danger.
I started as a Montessori school assistant this week, and now I feel cheated. The classrooms were already completely laid out. Including the cubbies! I didn’t even get a say in their placement. 😭
After gelping my mom get ready for her new school year, I can verify that while this short seems tedious to most, this work is essential for teachers. They need to know where desks should go, what materials go where, etc. I can verify that yes, setting up a classroom can be tedious, but it's essential
Today was my fourth day of no air conditioning in my classroom and this is florida. So with only 30 minutes this morning, I gathered what important stuff I could for my class and I set up in our vacant music room which was nice and cool. With just myself and 30 minutes I unfortunately did not get the clay out of the buckets and I had no time to set up a woodworking area.
Watching this I slipped into a boredom coma, cracked open my skull, had several pins insterted in my head and spent six months in the hospital. When I got back this thing was still going.
I guess it makes sense to setup the block station next to the wood working station so the Kidergarteners can mill their own blocks. Although they forgot to check if that corner has proper 240v sockets for the power saw and drill press.
This short is so mundane in it's subject matter, so flat and stilted in it's presentation, that you ask yourself: "Even with the guys providing the added jokes, how much replay value could this possibly have?". And the answer, for me personally, is "Quite a bit, really". It's blandness is somehow so fascinating that it becomes weirdly hypnotic. I've found myself watching this as I go to sleep several times in the past week.
Plus, we all know the one in the glasses is secretly a freak, right? Like, just a wild, naughty little nym... I think perhaps I need to calm down a little.
