Doubletalk is a 1975 short film (9 minutes) directed by Alan Beattie.In this short film a young man named David shows up at his friend Karen's house to take her out on a date. He is surprised to arrive at her family home and discover that it is an enormous mansion. After a few minutes making awkward small talk with her parents, David and Karen leave.The hook to this film is that throughout its entire length we hear the inner thoughts of all the characters. While they are babbling inane pleasantries at each other, audible voiceovers reveal their much more candid thoughts. | |

Straw Vegetarian: A throwaway joke. The mother casts a skeptical glance at David and then decides that he's "still better than the vegetarian or the basketball player." | |
