Watch More Short Films Now On IMDb Theaters!
IMDb and Withoutabox present IMDb Theaters, a major new initiative to create an online global showcase for top short films. IMDb users will now be able to watch short films from the world's most exciting new filmmakers right on IMDb title pages. Take a look at just a handful of the many short films we've received so far:
Wonder City: An emotional montage of a nation's tragedy begins as an old travelogue, yet turns quickly to the events of 9/11.
Rewind: How far would you go to be young again?
I Land in the Sun: A love story worth seeing. Boy meets girl but neither boy nor girl are ever 'seen' in the film.
The Next LeBron: A young boy aspires to be like basketball star LeBron James.
The Shangri-la Cafe: In 1959 Las Vegas, faced with a shutdown of their Chinese restaurant if they do not adhere to a "whites-only" policy, a Japanese-American family wrestles with the dilemma of their African American friends' arrival for dinner.

Today: Cinematographer Oliver Stapleton (My Beautiful Laundrette, The Cider House Rules, Buffalo Soldiers, Casanova, The Water Horse) on shooting in the red light of a darkroom. See what he has to say in today's Ask a Filmmaker.
