Wow, I love this video by Stephan Koplowitz. Produced in 2002, "Catching the 5:23" was shot on location in New York's Grand Central Station and depicts a business man catching a train who is oblivious to all the unusual activity going on around him. The seven minute video stars Jay Longan as the businessman and features an original score by Quentin Chiappetta. The dancing is excellent and location, of course is stunning. I think it was quite an accomplishment to "choreograph" this amazing piece!
The man in the gray flannel suit takes the same train home every night from his job in the big city. As he passes through the wondrous halls of New York's Grand Central Terminal he seems to be missing the magic around him.
Written and Directed by Stephan Koplowitz
Starring Jay Longan with an original score by Quentin Chiappetta
