From: paul overton
Length: 00:06:27
"I collect rope that people drop in the road. There's a lot of people who just drop rope in the road. It's kind of amazing and when you drive around, you just see theses pieces of...rope."
A look inside the good natured and sometimes kooky world of people who collect. From naked Barbies to Deflated Basketballs. If it exists, so does someone who collects it.

Review of Naked Barbies and Deflated Basketballs: A look inside the world of collectorsNothing big to add from the other reviewers, but I love the way the peace flows and the little stories that come out of what could easily be mundane. Collectors would like this piece more than me, and I liked it quite a bit. |

Review of Naked Barbies and Deflated Basketballs: A look inside the world of collectorsThe strengths of this piece are in the great editing, music and of course, the facinating subjects. I think it would have been a better piece if we had gotten to know one of the collectors a little better, and followed them through some kind of dramatic arc. It was like a series of snapshots, very descriptive but not as deep as I would like. Super editing brings the package together. |

Review of Naked Barbies and Deflated Basketballs: A look inside the world of collectors
This piece has great audio and transitions as well as great backround music. However, after around three minutes each piece began to blend together and I lost most of my intrest. It may have been more effective if one or two of the collectors had been focused on and a more in-depth description of their collection was given. Overall, a great idea and very humorous piece.
