    One of the cutest, most uplifting gay themed shorts I have seen in a while.

    Very nice. A short film with an actual story. A beginning, a middle, an end. Fully formed characters

    Thank you for a moment, fluid in excellence; an inspiring and transparent moment in humanity that feels like a real treat in our rather disturbed world. Cheers, JL!

    Sweet short with a positive ending. We need more of that.

    Who would do that to someone and then that someone be ok with it? No, that's not how you treat people who tell you they have an issue with something, that was abusive.

    • @MikkoHere
      @MikkoHere 3 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      In most situations your concern is 100% justified. It would NOT be recommended practice. But perhaps he was seized by a greater instinct - greater than the normal excepted protocols - to help shake Horace out his fearful frozen state. And perhaps this instinct was motivated by a love greater than his normal well-controlled persona. He is a fictional character, but in my life I’ve had people who took the risk to confront me to “jump in” despite my fear and they changed my life forever.

    I still prefer the way Italians, Mexicans, Argentine, French, even Israeli make a Gay film. The likes of Tremulo, Eyes wide open, etc.

    I love it !!! ❤️ This is what I want to see not the sad endings. Life is already hard for everyone. When I look at movies I want my mind off of reality I want to imagine happiness forever , greatness forever , no death, no sickness because once that good movie ends… boom REALITY 😔 and I don’t want no movie to remind me of the cruel world we live in.

    Nonono that is not what you do to a person you don't even know who tells you they have a phobia. Cute concept but if someone did that to me I would never speak to them again lol

    Nahhhhh, Steve is fucked up for pulling Horace into the pool like that. Targeting one of his biggest fears and then immediately forcing him to FACE that fear head on and then asking “aRe YoU oKaY???”

    Wow. A beautiful young man; a longing to connect; reaching out; facing a fear unchosen, then choosing to face another, reaching farther.
    What first caught my eye Then caught my heart before I knew it, with surprising intimacy.
    We are suddenly deep into the ocean of fundamental human longing.
    The effective use of outside/inside cuts of POV, and wordless moments for us to fill in.
    Thanks for a fine piece of work. I am eager to see your next effort. I subscribed.

    I see this in my TH-cam suggestions. I personally didn't like this short film's way of accepting a part of oneself. It's too idealistic while connecting two distinct situations for the character. And the characters are strangers to each other so I find it over-the-top that the character would allow and accept that behavior. 25dec22
