Watch The Short Film Adaptation of Chuck Palahniuk's 'Romance' Right Now
Today is an exciting day for fans of Chuck Palahniuk films-- Yes, I said films. Up until now, Fight Club and Choke were the only two adaptations you could find of any of Chuck's work. But writer/director Andy Mingo went and changed all that with his short film adaptation of 'Romance.'
If you've never heard Chuck read 'Romance,' you missed a treat. Read on last year's tour, this is easily one of Chuck's strongest and funniest short stories. It's both heartbreaking and hysterical at the same time.
With Chuck's permission, Andy wrote and directed an adaptation of the short story into an awesome short film. And starting today, you can find it on Video On Demand. Here are currently the two best places to purchase and watch the film:
The film is 26 mins long and is already getting rave reviews. It recently played the Cinequest Film Festival and brought the house down!
In the coming days, it may pop up on Google Play and YouTube Rental. But for now, the above links are the only way to see it. So drop $1.49, support independent film, and sit back and enjoy 'Romance.'

Well worth the $1.50.
The bus scene was much more intense in the short story, but overall well done.
I love that Monica Drake had a tiny cameo. Surprised CP didn't make an appearance?
Hey frazden, that's a great idea. Like Hitchcock used to do. Chuck should do a cameo.
The only reason I mention it, is because he made a cameo in Choke.
He did? Can't believe I missed that. I own that movie. haha, going to watch it again tonight with hubby and look for him. Thanks for heads up on that.
Hint: It's near the end. He's a passenger on the airplane. Listening to music I think?
Hah! I'll look again. Thanks! Watched it last night. It was driving me nuts! Couldn't find it.
Nicely done. That was an impressive story.
