When Richard arrives in a small town, following the receipt of a letter and glass fish sent to his newspaper office, he is unaware of what he is about to become embroiled in. Intrigued by the story of a mysterious disappearance of a young woman Jane. Richard takes a room in the pub, the last place Jane was known to be alive. Awakened one night by an old telephone that seems to ring endlessly and then a chance encounter with the spectral image of a young woman, Richard decides to question the owner. Max an abstract artist denies ever seeing or putting up the woman in question. Richard is told ‘The Telephone’ must be in his imagination. Richard’s instincts tell him there is more to the story. Is the ghostly figure seen late at night, that of Jane? Could the telephone ringing truly just be in his head?

Viewing Notes

Fired this up on SB to see if the app worked… it does but the new ad package still really, really, really sucks. This is a long short film I found on there (~30 minutes) that I hadn’t heard of. It wasn’t even in TMDb. Weird. Anyways, it’s interesting but I need to view it again bc I was so frustrated w/the ad situation.
