Fullscreen a Movie in VLC from Quicksilver

I love quicksilver, and I never (well almost never) open a file by browsing in Finder. When I want to watch a movie on my mac, I usually just find the file through quicksilver, and then I have an action named "Fullscreen in VLC" with the follow applescript:

The script should be placed in ~/Library/Application Support/Quicksilver/Actions/ - named what ever you want (the filename will be the action name in quicksilver). Restart Quicksilver and you're ready to open movies in fullscreen with a minimum of keypresses (and no mouse).
