I Like It a Lot

Produced and Directed by Jay Rosenblatt
4 minutes • Beta SP •  color • 2004

I Like It a Lot, a stunner of sentiment without sentimentality, spends four attentive, agreeable minutes with a two-year-old and an ice cream cone.  (It) succinctly conveys the splendor of being human.”
-Jonathan Kiefer, San Francisco Magazine

A two year old, an ice cream cone and a clean, white shirt.


REVIEWS

I Like It a Lot, a stunner of sentiment without sentimentality, spends four attentive, agreeable minutes with a two-year-old and an ice cream cone.  (It) succinctly conveys the splendor of being human.”
-Jonathan Kiefer, San Francisco Magazine

"I cannot end this... review without acknowledging the film that, in the entire festival, gave me the most unadulterated pleasure: Jay Rosenblatt’s I Like It a Lot. It is undoubtedly among the festival masterpieces, and I have already watched it six times, reduced to various degrees of happy hysteria. As an unashamed depiction of shameless sensual pleasure it rivals anything I can think of in or out of the festival, and all this in four minutes of screen time."
-Robin Wood, cineACTION
