Just for Fun - Bar Talk by Joe R. Lansdale

Over at the SFSignal site there's a short film called "Bar Talk" based on a Joe R. Lansdale short story.  There's also a link to the short story if you'd rather read or the film link doesn't work for you.

Not bad! Short films are a great vehicle for little stories like that; I guess Vimeo and YouTube and the like have boosted the production of short pieces like this one.

Along similar lines, Sand Jack Productions did a little short film from a script of mine: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zmwhBok5vYU

There are quite a few crime writers I know that have had shorts made from their short stories. Congrats on getting one of yours made, Manuel. Sadly my computer is so old it won't play half the videos I click on.

I know what you mean. My PC dates from 2006, and sucks for video. YouTube videos actually play better on my phone.

Yes, mine is about that old also, plus it has the Vista program which would never let me update. Not to mention that I'm computer ignorant most times.
