“The Gunfighter:” Nick Offerman Narrates A Western Comedy Short

It’s like “Stranger Than Fiction,” except with Nick Offerman. The Gunfighter won the audience award for Best Short Film at the Palm Springs Film Festival. It’s also being highlighted this week on shortoftheweek.com and is a Vimeo staff pick. According to Short of the Week, the short was filmed at the Melody Ranch, which has hosted scenes from Django Unchained and plenty of other great Westerns.

Directed by Eric Kissack, and written by Kevin Tanglin, the short film also stars Shawn Parsons, Scott Beehner, Timothy Brennen, Eileen O’Connell, and Jordan Black. Before he started directing, Kissack was a film editor in New York and LA, and cut “Role Models”, “Brüno“, “Cedar Rapids”, and “The Dictator”. His feature directorial debut, “Love, Sex and Missed Connections”, won several festival awards.
