The Adventures of WILFRED FINCH - A Triumphant Short Film

[00:00:03][music] the prisoner. He's escaped.

[00:00:27]Dang it.

[00:00:53]Anybody else?

[00:00:57]Who else?

[00:01:00]Come on, run this way. The king's waiting for the mountain to begin.

[00:01:05]>> We don't want to be late.

[00:01:12][laughter] >> Welcome to my birthday tournament. We have three challenges ready for our brave contestants.

[00:01:29]Noble Frier Preston, [applause] Lady Constance Ward, the wonderfully loyal Peter Crow.

[00:01:59]And finally, the snooze, Wilfred Finch.

[00:02:10]>> Let's begin.

[00:02:13][applause] >> For the first challenge, an archery competition.

[00:02:20]Each contestant will shoot whatever will please the king the most.

[00:02:28]>> I'm feeling evil.

[00:02:35]>> I hope nobody truly gets hurt.

[00:02:53]That's my personal [applause] dear.

[00:03:15]Bad line, but very entertaining.

[00:03:19]>> Next [cheering] [applause] >> [cheering] >> Wow.

[00:04:08]Well done, Peter.

[00:04:10]>> Most impressive, Peter.

[00:04:14][cheering] unexpected.

[00:04:46][cheering] >> Only three contestants remain and now an eating competition.

[00:05:02]Let's eat.

[00:05:18]Right there. Right there.

[00:05:36]>> [cheering] [music] [music] >> Too much.

[00:06:09]Too much.

[00:06:10]>> I feed it fire.

[00:06:18]>> Why am I beginning to think the king really is evil after all?

[00:06:25][laughter] >> [laughter] >> And for the final challenge, a fight to the death.

[00:07:05]Yeah.

[00:07:24]Wow.

[00:07:54]Watch >> [screaming] [screaming] [cheering] [screaming] [cheering] >> Stop.

[00:08:15]>> The man you see before you is not Will Fred Finch.

[00:08:22]>> What?

[00:08:24]He is in fact a prisoner.

[00:08:29][laughter] >> What?

[00:08:37]>> Power, corruption, death, and for what purpose the king has become something of a child's nightmare? For when was the last time he took a breath so sweet as spring air? When was the last time he watched a flower bloom? He has lost all respect for the common man.

[00:08:56]Lady Constance Wardell, while your aim proved weak, your presence showed us hope.

[00:09:01]And you, Frier Preston, my God, if my heart was as strong as your stomach, I'd surely have a stroke.

[00:09:09]And for you, dear sweet Peter Crow, you have a force, a tremendous powerful force, that my envy simply crumbles to admiration. So what if I am a prisoner?

[00:09:22]All I did was steal a pig. That was my pig. The king has grown fat and evil.

[00:09:29]For his love has shrunk to the size of a chestnut and is evil the size of a house of flower wilts.

[00:09:39]So will you simply stand there and watch while the king laughs at our misfortune?

[00:09:45]Or will you stand with me against the king, against evil?

[00:10:01]>> Yes. Down with the king.

[00:10:04]>> I am king.

[00:10:12]We got [music] [music] heat.

[00:10:38]>> [music] [music] [music] >> Get him.

[00:11:40]Help.
