A man stands on a sidewalk, waiting to ask passersby a single question: "Are you the favorite person of anybody?" Remarkably simple, yet profound its implications, this script, penned by indie phenom Miranda July, asks viewers to take an inward glance at their own lives. With subtle direction and wonderfully quirky performances, the film was also recently selected for YouTube's online screening.

    I loved this film because I think it intentionally illustrates how clueless we all are about whether we are anyone's favorite person. It also illustrates some of the most important principles of good survey research by violating them all (and surely this was done on purpose). It is also a great example of research on social influence and the deep human need for connectedness. In short, this film is brilliant at many different levels!

    Very touching... Yes, I am the favorite person of my very closest friend. I want to be the favorite of many people around me. If no one likes you then the life becomes very tough and you might feel alone in this world.

    Yes, I am. I'm certain I'm the favourite person of one person I know. And just one is enough for me. I'm grateful for this. Thank you for bringing this into my consciousness.

    How sad the world would be if we weren't the favorite person of anyone! I am several people's favorite person and I know that to be certain. I know that if I left this world tomorrow I would be missed by these people. I feel very sad for people that aren't a favorite to someone or don't have a favorite someone in their life.

    Made me sad...I cried. Very certain it would take some time before I was missed if I left. I wish I had the confindence of Terry. Or the attitude of the person named 'me' whom it didn't affect as they didn't get the point.

    It makes me think, then it makes me cry. We don't often take opportunity to evaluate our relationships so simply and directly. Thank you.
