Bingo (summary)

Bingo, the short film directed by Chris Landreth tells the tale of an average guy who finds himself sitting in the center of a scary circus ring. He is approached by different members of the circus such as the head clown; The Money Guy! who is a fat, blob-like bald man with dozens of arms, fingers, and paper money flabbing from his fingers; and what seems to be a cute little clown girl holding balloons that are constantly inflating and popping. All of these characters say "Hi Bingo the Clowno" to the average guy sitting in his chair. He keeps saying "No I'm not Bingo," but by the film's end he is brainwashed into believing that he is, indeed, Bingo the Clowno. Comically, at this turning point when the average guy stands up and starts dancing as he proclaims that he is Bingo, the lights come on and a voice heard over a loud-speaker says, "Thank you...next." It is as though this guy was an actor on an audtion and he finally gave the casting directors what they wanted.
