"Mind your own business and go stalk my wife!" is SUCH a good line

A beautiful story of loss, cuckolding, dog rapists and threesomes. Great work as per usual Joel.

The casting of this short film was incredible. Each actor brought his own unique set of skills. Brilliant.

I'm SO GLAD that film noir Joel is back!

I think out of all of Joel's friends Joel collabs with, Joel is my favorite.

"I love you chief's wife!" Such romantic dialogue 😂

You do such an incredible job at subverting expectations while playing on and into narrative convention. You're an artist Joel.

See, THIS is why Joel's videos are so relatable. If I had a dime for every time this happened to me, well... hoo boy.

"Mind your own business and GO. STALK. MY. WIFE."

Oh man I love the old timey ones. Still holding out for a momma's beans sequel

Joel's detective noirs have to be some of my favorite films of his, all criminally under-viewed but i just can't get enough of what he does with this style. As a starting film-maker (and Massachusetts raised person) I always find what he does so inspiring. Big thanks Joel.

Of all the injustices ever in the history of the universe, the way The Rookie is treated has to be the worst of them.

I thought he was going to be on the date with the police chief's wife.

The audio and filter work is actually phenomenal.

This is perhaps the best old-timey one you've done. A true masterpiece from start to finish.

Joel you know what you have to do. You have to make a full-length movie in this style. It is your destiny. For real though this is hilarious

Joel's acting is excellent, all 5 of the characters act completely differently. Has so much range, seriously the most overpaid famous hollywood actors in the world aren't better than him

Joel you really nailed the Chief lol 😂I can see you trying not to break character

Joel Haver is an incredible font of comedic sketches. Amazing how he pumps these out.

Glad they found actual footage of what it was like to be detective in the 1920s

She must have met him in Tahiti. Nobody checks Tahiti.

Every single one of these makes me want to make more short films

Joel Haver is a tremendous voice, a leader of his generation, filled with depth and intrigue, like the boss's wife was last night.

It's absolutely nuts how engaging that was. The captain was my favourite he was such a good and consistent character.

"You need to find who- or what she's sleeping with" curious what the chief knows here that we don't.

Acting too good that I even forgot that they're literally all Joel.

Man, this feels like one of those classic sketches that’s just so good you can’t even appreciate it fully until you let it simmer and rewatch it. I loved the pacing and story direction and especially the diverse cast

"He seems oddly familya..." they're all Joel 😂

The chiefs thousand yard malaise stare while he's berating the rookie kills me. Great work as always.

This was fantastic Joel! I haven't had such a good laugh in a while!

The best part about a mystery where all the characters are played by the same person is you can never guess the ending ahead of time 😂 I was sure the dude in the glasses was the chief in disguise going to meet with his wife

“Last way I wanted to spend my Friday night was trapped in a closet with a dog rapist” I love you joel

Joel, I’ve been watching you for a long time now. You creating what you what you love to make and finding success is insanely inspiring. Never stop being you man.

The chief was actually really well acted. Definitely came into his own as a character

Thanks for all ya do! I needed this video today, it’s been a rough time lately!

I always feel so bad for rookie… until I remember that Joel is playing all the parts.

the ending made me deeply uncomfortable

I adore the semi-improv feel of this. I had no idea where it was going but was hooked nonetheless - a difficult Feat but definitely one Joel is a master at

This guy is a serious genius. History will prove that he is a great artist.

Joel playing all 5 roles was impressive, must've been a pain to edit everything together & deliver the lines with the right feelings.

Hola Senor Haver. I'll make this brief but I just wanted to say that bc of you I'm making a short film for the first time with my summer. Scripted, of course, lmao. You see I wasn't really the biggest fan of you at first. I love writing, particularly screenwriting. It's my favorite part of the filmmaking process and the heart of most movies imo and your dismissal of it as a slog or something holding people back was a little disheartening for me, so I put off watching your vids in my recommended for a long, long time. It was when I finally gave you a chance did I realize that you were one of the most encouraging, inspiring human beings I've seen on my 15 years on Earth. And after going through your older videos (particularly "You Are Already A Filmmaker") I got the courage to pump out a script in a week and get a crew of my most loyal friends. Filming begins next Thursday. The movie's a love letter to low budget filmmaking so it's got a ton of references to you and other talented people who aren't in Hollywood. Just wanted to thank you. Dk if you'll read this, since you get a lot of these comments but you might have maybe kinda possibly legitimately changed my life. Idk if this will even work out in the end but it sure as hell is worth a try.

I love this old timey black and white style. I’d love to watch more videos like this :)

"He's got that dog in him, and not the kind the rookie likes" fucking sent me

Man the casting behind this film is insane. How can Joel afford so many amazing actors. Those sponsorships really coming in clutch because he paid for quality actors!! ❤

Just wanna say Joel as far as short films / skits you are easily my favorite youtuber! Very inspiring

so happy to see this classic series return Me and my old man bonded over his recorded tapes of this golden nugget... It makes me think of simpler times.

I think my favorite part is the end where everything is so loud and the music swells (heh) up and everything cuts. It's amazing.

I love the slow melt and then sudden spiral of this piece into utter chaos. Did not see that ending coming!

Joooooel I was the weirdo who passed you on his bike and shouted "I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS" this past Tuesday. Thanks for wishing me a safe ride!

It's astounding how quickly Joel puts out high quality content. Keep it up man!

I love how you play all the characters. And timing is everything.

Love these retro style sketches, I think you could nail making a sketch with an 80's VHS style!

Technically Rookie solved two cases, he found the murderer and the other guy sleeping with the chief's wiife.

truly one of the classics! i remember the first time i saw this flick as a young boy, it answered many questions…and raised some new ones!

Yes! I think these are some of my fav Joel videos, so happy to see a new one!

Thank you for that highlight post! I love this small trend lately of artists like you and hydraulic beanbag highlighting their favorite creations. I want that kind of feel from my favorite creators, i dont wanna just end up seeing you all as meme generators

I think the internet has made me weird. My first thought was "Chief was in disguise and making his rookie spy on he and his wife's sexcapades because they get off on people watching" Then I just got lost in Joel's black & white eyes and flowing hair. Joel would make peak wife material ♥ Edit: Internet DID make me weird, and that is exactly where it went. Fucking priceless, well done cucking us all, Joel!

Joel has been on an absolute tear since he stepped on that landmine. He oughta keep a few around in case of artist's block.

This was just superb, one of your best yet!

Thank you for remastering this amazing noir film! I remember watching this in 56’, good times, better times.

I didn't necessarily laugh but this was VERY impressive to me, you definitely have a talent for story telling and acting - I saw your community post about these videos not being watched enough, they definitely deserve more views - great stuff.

"What are you doing out here other than diddling kids and raping dogs" jesus christ joel 😂😂😂

I love the creativity you bring. These shorts are filled to the brim with passion. Thank you for the quality content Joel.

I cried when he said ‘it’s a real store and your dick’s tiny’ truly a heartwarming film

Didn't even have notifications on. Nice timing. :3

this one stayed classy all the way through

Always love your solo projects Joel. Enjoy your own company bro! 🤙🏼

I’m so glad you’re still doing these. You’re one of my favorite artists.

My first video of Joel's was how every woman talk to men they just met in old movies. I love the variety of films and sketches Joel creates. Officially my favorite UKposts channel now :) P.S. maybe stop filming and uploading your videos from Tahiti, and more people will see it. No one checks Tahiti ;)

keely is such a spectacularly hateable character!

It's been too long since the last classic Joel video like this. Love it.

That ending was masterfully done. Subbed

this is a masterpiece holy shit

4:30 like how Rookie doesn't even deny the store's existence.

These are my favorite, the old timey ones are what got me into your channel! This one was filth, well done. 💚

the stevie t impression on point!! This one hit different Joel, well done! so well put together.

I need you all for a personal matter... to like this video to approve this great work.

The chief’s eyes are actually scaring me!

This is a subtle thing, but I love the consistency of the eye lines in the shots.

Beautiful art. Thank you Joel, seriously.

These videos bring me so much joy. Especially the part when the chief says "Oooh I loved it Keely! It was a FAAANTASTIC THREESOME!", as the music begins the swell. 9:19 Thank you Joel!

its me im sleeping with the chiefs wife

It's so funny that you said these are your proudest works, because I just happened of my own accord, and prodding from the algorithm, binged most of your noir videos. I thoroughly enjoyed them. Especially the the one about lighting the cigarette.

I love the chaotic, loud, shouting energy. Exactly what old timesovies feel like now, everyone is shouting and no one is competent

I wanna see Joel play ‘Murphy Law’ if they ever make an SCP show. Specifically the first article Murphy is featured in. He could nail the role, I can feel it.

What’s this scene from? Is it from a Hitchcuck film? I’m pretty sure this was a Hitchcuck film..

Please make more of these, you can see how much fun you have with them!

please feel no rush on your creative process, you in your element is just too awesome

I love Joels videos because they're all different, one day you're watching something old timey, the next its an animation, the next its a skit. Keeps things fresh. Most UKpostsrs are a one trick pony

Wish you did more of these noir skits

This was simply amazing. Your videos always brighten up my day. I hope you have a blessed day.

Man I love Joel's film noir videos... doesn't do them nearly often enough!

Jokes on him we’re all sleeping with the Chief’s wife.

I like these more than the animations don’t tell anyone

I love a lot of stuff about those but the work on the audio is really what does it for me... amazing job Joel!!

"I love you chief's Wife" - The Chief 😂😂

Personally not a fan of this one, not my type of humor, but I can appreciate the dedication nonetheless, keep making great stuff Joel 👍

I so desperately want Rookie to be respected. How tragic that he's now a cuck and can never be respected.

This was a really good one, thanks Joel

I love you Joel, keep up the amazing work!
