How annoying and dissappointing is this?

I've been googling for anything on the ever elusive short Nature Boy.

On Chad Willett's official website, there's actually a short clip of Nature Boy. Sadly, it contains no Callum.

So close and yet so far.

Being that I work in a library, I took a look in worldcat to see if I could somehow get my hands on it, but there is absolutely nothing. There's something in one library in the Netherlands by the same name from the same year but it's not the right movie. (Not that they'd send it to me from the Netherlands anyway if it were... I don't think.)

I did see a listing for another movie of the same name that was a full length film, not a short.

Probably not. Though we could've put out a call for a fan in the Netherlands. *sigh*

One of my searches was the director's name coupled with the words short film and apparently in the bonus features of another of Kari's movies called Liberty Stands Still (plot reminds me of Phone Booth) they list "a short film by the director" but it doesn't give it a name. And it would be an odd place to stick it I suppose... however it did come out in 2002, just a couple years later. She only directed an episode of Family Law between the projects AND I can't find any other short films listed for her on IMDB? Of course... it could just mean it's some short featurette for the movie... but it's worth a shot?

Hmmm, interesting. That may be worth a shot.

Is it this release? I'd be willing to spend $10 to find out.

Very :(
I came upon the same clip last weekend, and felt exactly like what you say So close and yet so far.

I did buy a used DVD of Liberty Stands Still that supposedly has a "short film" by Kari Skogland as one of the extras. I figured it was worth $5 to find out if it could be Nature Boy. So keep your fingers crossed.

Nada.

Zip.

Zilch.

No short by the director. :(
