Has anybody heard about this? The contest has been over for over a year, but I just heard about it. The flatscreen TV maker Philips sponsored a short-film competition with an unusual requirement. Aside from the length of film (all entries had to be less than three minutes long), they also had to use the same dialogue with no exceptions:

"What's that?"
"A unicorn."
"Never seen one up close before."
"Beautiful."
"Get away, get away."
"I'm sorry."

This was the winner:



This is the same film with a revised music score:
