If I understand it right theburiedfilm posted a bulletin with the subject "prize?" saying "what is the prize" on the vid that mycreativeimpulse linked to above.

Attempting to narrow down the woods (it's been done before Wink ) in case anyone wants to dig it up (incidentally, take a bigger shovel than the one he used to bury it) they're coppiced and must therefore have some active management in place and the soil seems to be clay rich. Sure there're some more clues in it. Rand0m - you still got your trowel?

[Edit] and it does seem that theburiedfilm posted his own trailhead.

Wellll, for all it's worth, listenng to the audio, I hear someone at the end say "It's one of them". No clue how this helps anything.

To me that says that they only buried "one of them" and there are in fact more versions of the film out there. In this day and age, and taking into account that this movie has been in film festivals supposedly, it would seem highly unlikely that this is the only copy.

Well, if you listen, I would say it sounds more like "it's one of THEM", I can't explain but more like it's refering to a person who might be coming.

i asked what he meant by east and west, but he just repeated.
"spread the word East and west"

capital E narrows down possible forests to it being in the east?

Perhaps he's trying to tell us "if you don't have at least one player in the UK, this won't work". That's about the only thing that comes to mind about going East.

Interesting

When Jay wrote " hope many people get to view the film in the many places i have put it." It sounds like he's referring to burying more then one copy of the film in different locations. I don't think he's talking about the Youtube one. It almost seems that the reason for him to bury it is to have it be found and viewed. This is in retaliation against the fact that it was removed from the public against his will. Now people can find and view the film even though the powers that be wanted it to be "buried" so to speak. I think he hides it so that the powers that be can't completely destroy it.

I found theburiedfilm on this site:
http://posting.triggerstreet.com/gyrobase/Submission?oid=oid:1189698

I created an account. It's the same movie. Looks like a site where people post their creations, and other people can review them.

The movie was posted September 21st. Also, it looks like this guy's account was suspended because he had multiple accounts.

He also wrote two reviews for other movies, and he got in a fight on their message board for "spamming" his movie all over the place. I guess the lesson to be learned here is that not everyone is an ARGer. We look at this and say "ARG". Other people look at it and say "spam"...

I like that theory, sounds good. especially when he messages me telling me that he will reveal the locations. seems like a way of getting us to see this tape, without "the powers that be, as you put it" from getting hold of it.

Anyone heard anymore on this? The site now says "The cause and the film can be found if you search East and west."

Again with the capital E on East.

This really doesn't seem like enough to go on :/

I tried searching "East" on IMDB:

http://imdb.com/find?s=nm&q=East&x=0&y=0

http://imdb.com/name/nm1516642/

Maybe? Maybe not?

Honestly, this looks to me like someone desperate to have an old film, that was never given its proper credit, a chance to shine

Yeah, I agree. I wish he'd give us a bit more than 'East and west' though. If he's gonna be THAT obscure he needs a real team of dedicated 'players', which, meh, he doesn't seem to have.
