Rubber Johnny- first opinion on this; something relavant towards condom use and sexual activity.
Rubber Johnny scared me to be honest, this short was supposed to be an advert to showcase the trippy drum and bass music of aphex twin; but the director saw potential and continued working with rubber johnny;
the story is that of a disfigured child locked in a basement with his pet dog; Johnny is questioned by psychiatrists; and is seemingly calling for his mother at one point; then left alone in darkeness with just the dog, the music then kicks in and the short film then turns into a music video; fast paced shots cutting every second, blurs, sped shots to the point of distortion; this is fuel for the music to emphasise the power of the rubber-like movements of johnny and his dancing.
My initial message ideas for this were:
Johnny remains motionless throughout the entire piece but is only dreaming the dancing scenario-longing- to be normal.
"Rubber Johnny" - should have worn a condom & not had johnny
Johnnys movements have some kind of rubbery feel to them.
