This is a simple, poignant short film, shot on a budget of $150: a man with a survey stops passersby and asks them, "Are you anybody's favorite person?" What a heartbreaking question, for somebody who DOESN'T come first in somebody else's heart! Miranda July, who wrote the short story this is based on, had just finished shooting ME AND YOU AND EVERYONE WE KNOW and made this film in the week between shooting and editing the first rough assembly. Miguel Arteta, who directed, was still in love with her at the time, and in an interview with WHOLPHIN said, "The shoot was painless but sure enough, by the time I started editing, we were broken up. This little short is like a rear-view mirror that survived a fabulous, painful crash."Buy this DVD at: http://www.wholphindvd.com/

Jul 26, 2008 - I used to be, but my best friend had a daughter so I am sure her daughter is now her favorite person. I really don't care to be anyone's favorite, being liked a lot is nice though.

Jul 26, 2008 - There are those who believe they are loved immensely, those who don't and those who'd rather believe that there's no such thing as that at all.

Jul 26, 2008 - maybe its just that they are taken by surprise. when I first saw this I asked myself who is my favorite person.. I dont really have one, then being no one's favorite person made it okay.. sorry if its bad english..

Brianleigh Says:
Jul 26, 2008 - Better not to be favorite by anybody, Being Humble is the Answer. When you are not looking to yourself that you are that much then you'll be blessed...

redcollargedeon Says:
Jul 26, 2008 - Perhaps VioletClub could post some videos of his own. Then he'd see that THIS video is getting amazing feedback.Everyone asks themselves the question. Even you, man.

SeriousCarl Says:
Jul 26, 2008 - miranda july is my favorite person.
jtmarquez Says:
Jul 26, 2008 - The point is to just get you thinking about who loves/cares about you, and how often it is expressed. Look at how awkward it is for the survey guy to ask the question, and especially how odd it is when the one guy answers "No" and he's absolutely positive, then mentions his girlfriend. The point is to express how insecure we are about the affections of others, and in essence our own self worth...
