YouTube Goes Tribeca (Watch Film Festival Shorts On YouTube)

The 2009 Tribeca Film Festival is currently underway in New York, and YouTube was able to score four of the short films featured in this year’s festival in the YouTube Screening Room. The shorts are Wu, Section 44, The Confession, and Cutlass. A word from Tribeca:

Stuck at work? Don’t live in New York? That’s no excuse! Thanks to the YouTube Screening Room, you can watch films from TFF 2009 right now at your desk!

Good news for out-of-towners and film fans stuck at work (boo!): four of this year’s short films are available for FREE on YouTube! Featured in the YouTube Screening Room through May 8, the four shorts featured were selected from the 46 shorts currently screening at the 2009 Tribeca Film Festival.

This will be a great trend if it continues to expand with other major festivals. “Wu” and “Section 44″ were my favorites.
