Baa Baa Land: a film they want you to fall asleep in
I really do wonder in the light of stories like this what kind of world we live in! It tells us;
Clad in a sparkling ball gown and tuxedo, the stars of the latest film to premiere in London’s Leicester Square walked the red carpet in a rather unusual manner – on four legs.
The stars in question were a group of sheep who feature in a new eight-hour, dialogue-free film “Baa Baa Land” – billed by its makers as the dullest movie ever made.
It’s not so much watching the grass grow as watching it be eaten.
The film – whose title plays on Hollywood hit “La La Land” — features no actors, words or narrative and consists entirely of slow-motion shots of sheep in a field in Essex, England.
It was made as a tongue-in-cheek insomnia cure, by Calm.com, one of the companies vying for a piece of the fast-growing mindfulness industry, part of what the Global Wellness Institute estimates is a $3.7 trillion global wellness market.
