Not Stand-up Comedy: Louis CK’s
by fyarlgiles
“Ice Cream” (1992)
Starring his stand-up buddies Laura Kightlinger and Craig Anton, “Ice Cream” is a riff on Golden Era Hollywood films, and it’s the first short to net Louis C.K. a lot of attention. “Ice Cream” played at the Sundance Film Festival and the Museum of Modern Art in 1994. On getting into Sundance, Louis C.K. said, “I got really lucky. It was like the biggest deal of my life when I got that.” The movie was shown on TV in Europe and on US cable networks like IFC and Bravo and won C.K. the Grand Prize at Aspen Shortfest. Most importantly, however, is that C.K. included the movie as part of his submission to be a writer for Late Night with Conan O’Brien, which became his first big TV job. C.K. says the fact that he made his own films impressed O’Brien and then-headwriter Robert Smigel and, along with his reputation as a stand-up, was largely responsible for him getting the job.

Not Stand-Up Comedy: Louis C.K.’s “Ugly Revenge”
by fyarlgiles
Another surrealist piece made in the early 90s starring Ron Lynch, JB Smoove, and Amy Poehler. It is a modern day western set in New York city. I still haven’t decided how I feel about it.

Not Stand-up Comedy: Louis C.K.’s “Hello There”
by fyarlgiles
“Hello There” starring Ron Lynch, is The first in a series of surrealist shorts C.K. made for Howie Mandel’s Showtime sketch comedy show. I saw it when I was a friendless junior high school student and had no idea where it came from, or how I might ever find it again, but I loved it. And I never forgot it.
14 years later, following a 4-day netflix marathon of Louie, I embarked on a brief but ravenous search for all things Louis C.K. and there it was. To this day, it is my favorite of all his short films.
-Angie
At 1:12, you can catch a young Louis walking by in a sweater and a pair of sunglasses. ENJOY!
