The Saddest Boy in the World
The world has conspired against poor Timothy Higgins and he has no choice but to hang himself. Always the dramatist, he chooses his own 9th birthday party as his stage. If you find this funny, good. If you're offended, it's okay—our paths were never meant to cross.

The Torontoist said: "A miniature masterpiece. The self-explanatory story is a wonder, and if Jamie Travis isn't the next big thing we'll be entirely gutted."

Well, those were some very uncomfortable moments.

But one not need laugh to be entertained. Evoking emotion is what theater is all about.

Dear KC, thank you very much. Wonderful short film. A masterpiece. It almost inspired me to go hang myself.

If you liked this one, check out "The Armoire" by the same guy.

Nothing funnier than child suicide. Nice work everyone involved!

Jesus on a Wheat Thin cracker, you are a real piece of shit.

Just my opinion. I could be wrong.

Sorry, did you mean to direct that to whoever posted the clip? I'm not the one who put in the description "If you find this funny, good. If you're offended, it's okay—our paths were never meant to cross."

Unless you really think I'm a real piece of shit for using sarcasm to disapprove of child suicide. Then that's on you.

Did you miss me? :D

No, actually? I think you are a dick.

Re: The Saddest Boy in the World
I missed you, Biggs. Kisses.

The description came from the film director, who seems to like torturing his young characters as much as Charles Dickens did. I posted this because it reminded me of my own childhood, just amplified and stylized. I imagine I'm not the only one. If that's not for you, that's okay. Our paths have crossed. Guess you'll just have to deal with it.
