Funny and entertaining short film directed by David Miller, based on the comic book by Pat Moriarity and Mary Fleener.

Pickup, based on an autobiographical short cartoon story written by Mary Fleener and drawn by Pat Moriarity, tells a sordid tale of how one night, fueled by an angry break-up, Mary is charmed and seduced by a charismatic stranger with unexpected, humiliating and amusing consequences. Shot in black & white on digital video, Pickup is a stylistic tribute to the early Nouvelle Vague.
