this kind of happened to me. Fell in love with my best. it was one hell of a long struggle after I told him. He was a palestinian so you can imagine how complicated it was. It took a long time for me to fall out of love and for him to accept my sexuality. We taught each other a lot about mutual tolerance, boundaries and forgiveness. Worth the pain.
The ending was realistic. Straight guy tried to assure his friend that there will be opportunities in Toronto and said "see you Thanksgiving", meaning though altered their friendship will withstand this one misstep. It's all good.
I had the same situation just before leaving for school it was an awesome summer with my friend of 12 years and thank God he understood and stated his love for me... but in a different way and that it would be forever and it has been we are still friends talk and hang out often we are like family and we still have that unstated love and we always hug each other good bye, I am blessed.
I used to be in love with my best friend too and it does hurt when you're in that situation because you feel the despair of knowing you have no chance of winning his heart. My best friend has always been cool about it though, and afterward, when we both went through some painful breakups, he admitted to me that if we COULD be together, we WOULD be together. Hearing him tell me he'd be together with me in a heartbeat if he was gay, made me feel better. We'll be best friends forever, I know it.
when my best friend told me that, i felt so much worse and actually just started hating myself for being born the gender that i was. if only i was a boy, she'd love me this way that i love her. if only she was gay, she'd love me. it's horrible but i'm glad you find comfort in it
Love is strange... I wouldn't want to be neither of them, I cannot imagine the struggle of falling for a near friend who certainly loves you, only not in the way you wish they did. On the other hand, having a best friend who you spent the most of your life with, and then finding out that they felt more than you did and they didn't look at you the way you thought they did all the time (if that makes sense :D), that, in my opinion, is even harder, because you know that you will have to hurt them. Sometimes you just wish you could say those words, but you simply can't :'(
It is called unrequited love and, if the other guy is straight or not interested, it is better to go on and not waste time and tears in the something that is never going to happen.
+Giovanni Serafino unrequited love can def hit you hard and it sucks but i def agree with you. sometime the person we fall for will not feel the same way we feel for them no matter how much we force ourselves to them. and it sucks cause you love being around that person cause they make you very happy but at the same time you also feel heartbroken and it tears you apart inside..
Bára V I fell inlove with my straight best friend once. He's the first guy that I fell deeply for. He's the reason why I became bi. I confessed my feelings for him but then things turned out differently from the way I expected. He left me in the middle of the road with the rain pouring hard. He disappeared. He never made contact with me since that night. But now that I moved on, I realized that he's not worth it because all these time, all he wanted from me was the benefits. He made me do his homeworks, he always make me pay his bills, he always made me pay our lunch, he took some of my stuff. I'm glad he's out of my life. I'm also glad of the fact that because of him, I found the true me. I'm proud to say that because of that asshole, I'm a complete different person now. Stronger and smarter.
I like the cinematography of this and the storyline. I don't always like when short films end in tragic but I think its a necessity in order to ponder and relate how reality works. Not everything is a happy ending.
This reminds me so much of my teenage years, growing up in the middle of vast wheat and corn fields, dairy farms in the USA....I fell in love with my best friend, who lived on an enormous farm, but I never told him.
Well done! The guy who played Danny had to follow his heart and he took a risk. A big risk. Unfortunately that surprised kiss wasn't in his favor or what he wanted to happen. In short, he got his answer quickly and uprupt. Fortunately, he got the courage to confront the whole situation and move on. Thank goodness their was no loss of the friendship. It had a strong foundation and would remain. Great short film.
LaurenceAngelil movie with 10 award winning you said soo gay ? to see the rating which one better, look at IMDb or Wikipedia. btw forget it..audience who answered dear. and everyone has their own favorite movie right?. case closed and Peace...
I don't think they'll ever be the same. I bet a lot of people watching this have been through this exact situation. It KILLS that moment when your best friend suddenly looks at you as if you're a total stranger, once you tell them how you feel. And I haven't gotten over it yet... and it's been a year. I'm scared to fall in love again. This short film is good because it's realistic - life is heartbreaking, more so for gay men apparently :(
I actually really liked this one...it didn't have the stupid sappy happy ending like so many other stories do...THIS is what real life is like...pain, sadness, and learning to live with NOT getting that happy ending that only exists in fairy tales. Great little movie!
Brilliant film, I can't experess that enough. I recently pointed someone who had difficulties with gay guys towards this film, and told them after watching it to reflect on something, "There are far too many people who don't invite you to thanksgiving, and yet still too many who do" I told him to talk to me if he was still confused after watching it, but have heard nothing since, good or bad, so thank you for so elequantly showing the difficulties coming out to a friend can cause.
Beautifully done! Good script, production values and terrific acting by both guys. You could really feel the deep, lifelong friendship and the pain of coming separation. It’s a complete film exactly as it is. Congratulations! Keep making films!
J'ai vu et re-vu ce court métrage au moins 50 fois. Très très beau film, et tellement réaliste. J'aime le tempo et la bande sonore. Triste oui mais tellement touchant.
A very nice short story. So pleased that the lad lets his feelings out. At least he can be able to move on and for his friend promising not to tell wow! that is epic. Kudos to the writer, producer n director of this movie and i want more. make it a series please.
I thought they were both gay, but the blonde couldn't except it. His dreams were to stay on the farm...marry Susie Q., have 5 kids, etc. Mr. curly hair, knew he couldn't stay cause the City was calling his name.
I look back too this film and be like why couldn't the happy ending be that his friend ends up having feelingd for his gay or bisexaul friend and ended up happy together. But instead the ending made me feel like there's no hope falling for a close friend xD
I think it was strongly hinted at... maybe even obvious--that his friend loved him back but was holding it back, for whatever reason (not wanting to be gay, or being afraid of coming out... there can be so many reasons). I mean, he was trying so hard not to cry whenever he thought of the guy leaving, he was sweet and gentle with him after the kiss although he couldn't look at him because he found it painful that he couldn't let on that he felt the same way... Right from the start is flirting behavior--the way he tackled him was like the only kind of way to get physically close to him in a way that was socially acceptable.. and the reason hinted at that he didn't sleep with his girlfriend was because he wasn't attracted to her that way, and maybe even because he couldn't stop thinking of his best friend. I really found this to be a story of mutual love, just one that had a sad ending and was realistic in the way that... there is usually one who has more guts to at least try for it than the other. And that is what we saw here--the one who went for it was the more feminine looking and vulnerable one, and the one who ran away was your stereotypically 'alpha' type male, who probably was desperate to hold onto how everyone saw him that way. Being gay... makes straights assume that you're not 'manly' and a lot of gay men stay in the closet because they just can't take the feeling of being demasculated, emotionally, by the public and their families..
Kinda glad it didn't have a happy ending. Happy endings are so cliche in film. I feel like unhappy endings can be more relatable because realistically, not everyone has a happy ending. Great short film👌🏾
Beautiful. Frustrating in its realism. So often that's how it goes. One of them says indirectly "I just can't." although you know he wants the same thing. Heartbreaking, and an effective enough reminder of harsh reality that I would have just payed to see a happy ending, I think. It wouldn't be too farfetched... Sometimes it does work out. I would have liked to see it work out, or see some mention of a sequel where there is hope. I can't find fault with anything in the story, and the acting was superb. But it literally left me just shouting angrily and wanting to cry but... ugh, when you're a man those tears are stubborn and they just don't want to come forth unless there is real crisis. I *felt* this though. In my heart. Why?? I am going to watch one where there is happiness, and feel my spirits restored. * sigh * That said, good job with this. It really was superb, and I know it was supposed to leave us with that feeling, and I understand the point it was making. Ultimately, it is good to have stories like this.. that kind of leave you feeling like your true love just kicked you in the gut. Bravo, and much love to all of you who made this.
I completely agree with you, when it happened I felt such anguish deep in my heart. I have been in those situations many times and I felt that all too familiar ache of being denied by the person you care most about. Sadly it is true that it's very real to what life some times does to you, it hits you knocking the air out of you and suddenly you're on your back wondering how the hell you got there. I know that was the point to all of this but I too can't help but wish that it had a good ending, at least a glimmer of hope that there would be something or that something was going to happen between them; I sat here shaking my head in disbelief muttering to myself that it can't end like it did. These people did an amazing job, I give them so many props; they need to continue this stuff cause they are definitely doing something right.
Monica Santillano Yeah, I love how you put all that, it's very true. And yes, they are telling the love stories right--not focused on trying to make it 'hot' like Hollywood pressures artists to do. This is real, honest stuff. XD
Two French films that I liked are "Just A Question Of Love" and "You'll Get Over It." They provide a gallic perspective on young people realizing that they are gay and what they have to deal with when they come out. The first film is one of my favourite gay films ever. I love the scene near the end in the car.
I was just hoping on a happy ending. I'm sure there would have been a happy ending if the guy would have admitted that he loved him back. But he just couldn't tell. He was afraid. I'm afraid I'm in the same position right now. Me and my best friend , we just love each other. He knows that I'm gay, and probably that I'm in love, but he just can't admit the same. He's afraid of losing his other friends. But he treats me as a king. He's so kind and sweet. He smiles at me and waves when he says goodbye. I love him soo badly. But nothing happens.. Maybe I should do the same and just kiss him. I don't know. Maybe I just have to tell him , "I love you".
GirlLovesFairytale Actually, it's really weird seeing my comment after a month! I actually did say it and told him everything. He was surprised and found it a weird idea, but he's totally fine with it and accepts it! He's still really kind to me, and that's special? First it was a bit awkward and I just ignored him, but I think that he missed me, so we started to see each other again. But now it's holliday and didn't see him for a while! But I think everything is fine!! I'm over him and I can go on with my life. It was big relief, but I'm so glad that I have told him! It gets better ! He told me that he was straight, but honestly I still have doubts, but if he says that he is straight , I have no problem with it ! My feelings are almost gone now , so I don't mind. :)
Lovely film about secret passions that suddenly come out and the hardships of leaving all that you know behind. This would be a great feature film too. Mark and Danny would also make a beautiful couple had they hooked up. That was a daring and stupid move 6:23- Danny at least could have had Mark pull over and then kiss him. Ending would have been better if Mark gave Danny a peck on the cheek before he got out of the truck. All in all, the story was good and a sequel would be nice.
Haha. This is hardly a tragic ending. No one dies or gets injured, and they're still friends. And now there's nothing they can't tell each other! I'm sure he'll find someone to be with in Toronto. He'll always have a friend back home. That's not tragic.
I was totally blown away by the soundtrack of this short film... especially the ending song This is Not Like Home, it still haunts in my mind sometimes when lonesomeness comes around.. :)
Okay. This is a great film. I really loved it - but it took THAT many people to produce a 13 minute film with two actors and a truck? Are you kidding me?
This was so well put together, it's not like every other film where its either cliche or complete devastation. It's well filmed, the acting was really good, and the story line was great. Good job man. Thumbs up on this one
I was waiting the whole time for him to say "next time you kiss me don't do it when I'm driving" and then there to be a make out scene --- WHERRE IS IT
Although the film is a gay themed film, and there's a lot being spoken about gay guys being rejected, it's not just them who have to face rejection... As a straight person, I can say that all of us have gone through that... Maybe not outright but by being ignored or avoided.. I hope it makes the gay community feel better.. We're all the same, going through the exact same things! :) Wonderful movie!
Even if I had a thing for him, I would have been pissed about being kissed in that situation. The dude was obviously worried about his truck. I think he should had stopped him from driving in the pitch dark and made his pitch.
Thanks. It's a beautifully composed film, and I wish some people watching it could get that it's about two adolescents, not about Society. Lonely people in isolated locales can often have extreme feelings that don't connect with their day-to-day lives, and besides, virgins fumble. (If the boys started having one passionate night, what would that mean for them both after the brunet's departure?) It's a staple of comedy that the odds usually are against sudden declarations of love, or stolen kisses, leading to anything satisfying. This film reminded me of those teenaged years when you couldn't imagine connecting with anyone, the isolation ran so deep. Thanks again, and bravo!
This was so good but why did they have to leave it like that. I was just hoping and waiting but maybe something will happen when next they meet!!! A girl can hope!
Great Lake Swimmers this is not like home its on youtube wonderfull song .I'de never heard of them before but they have a few great songs. Regards Shane

I applaud you on this film🥰 I see an amazing career in your future if thats what you're choosing. This was great work. I was wishing it was a full feature. It was a realistic script. The actors you chose were excellent. Bittersweet ending. 👏👏
The lives of the vast majority of men attracted to other men are not a litany of bullying, cheating and tragedy BUT pretty much the same as everyone else's on the planet.
Somehow I always end up back at gay short films every day.
yup! same here
SO TRUE!
hahahahahhahahahahahahahhahahahahahahhahahaha
Peggy Schuyler same
Alexandra Hamilton same

Obrigado por compartilhar sua história. Saudações aqui do Brasil.
i'm an 82 year old "gay" Been through hell and back - a terrific film - brings back my earliest years. CUDOS TO ALL OF YOU
im just gonna imagine that the blonde guy visited him in Ontario and they hooked up & lived happily ever after.
E
Always hoping for a meaningful ending...
The ending was realistic. Straight guy tried to assure his friend that there will be opportunities in Toronto and said "see you Thanksgiving", meaning though altered their friendship will withstand this one misstep. It's all good.
Jerry Smith No one likes reality though.
I had the same situation just before leaving for school it was an awesome summer with my friend of 12 years and thank God he understood and stated his love for me... but in a different way and that it would be forever and it has been we are still friends talk and hang out often we are like family and we still have that unstated love and we always hug each other good bye, I am blessed.
But can Danny Move on. Or will he be in pain every time he goes home. I think Mark knew deep inside that Danny was Gay. He just never brought it up.
They pick the most good looking guys in almost every film.
L.L.Yaung you're also good looking
Awais Awais We're all good looking in our own way :)
lol people would not watch it if they werent
Leo, some would. Heart and soul are what matter for this dude.
Guillaume de Warenne i know that but sex sells im looking atvit from a business point of view obviously looks are not everything

@@Charlie-zv9weI’m so sorry but this is so funny how you have the exact opposite feeling 💀.

It is called unrequited love and, if the other guy is straight or not interested, it is better to go on and not waste time and tears in the something that is never going to happen.
+Giovanni Serafino yeah I agree.

Have you seen the music video for from afar by Vance Joy? It has got the same theme, its really heartbreaking.

This short left me wanting so much more. So many questions unanswered! The longing was intense. Realistic portrayals. Great job all around.
I like the cinematography of this and the storyline. I don't always like when short films end in tragic but I think its a necessity in order to ponder and relate how reality works. Not everything is a happy ending.
and that's y we watch films, to get away from reality......
This reminds me so much of my teenage years, growing up in the middle of vast wheat and corn fields, dairy farms in the USA....I fell in love with my best friend, who lived on an enormous farm, but I never told him.
God dammit Danny what did you expect to happen he was driving!
With lights off in the middle of the night
that's what i thought. stupid to ambush him with a kiss while he's driving!
Even in short films gay couples don't have a happy ending. Fuck!
mchl bae ur right....
mchl bae isak and even did tho :') ♡♡
Hauntingly realistic....incredibly beautiful....Thank you
I'm not buying that one kid as a farmer. His skin's more alabaster than Helena Bonham Carter's in her prime.
I don't think you can get anymore accurate than that. xD
Just LOL :p
Well done! The guy who played Danny had to follow his heart and he took a risk. A big risk. Unfortunately that surprised kiss wasn't in his favor or what he wanted to happen.

*WHY GAY MOVIES ALWAYS END WITH TRAGIC ?*
not always!

I like how this short film can make the viewer feel like he just watched two hours worth of drama. Good short film
The way they look at each other with every word was just so heart meltingly powerful

I thought that but I'm now dating my best friend and we're both guys, I suppose sometimes it works eh?
Zion kurosaki yeah, my friend tried the 'lets go out' on someone yesterday, he got turned down. Thank you :)
I think it was strongly hinted at... maybe even obvious--that his friend loved him back but was holding it back, for whatever reason (not wanting to be gay, or being afraid of coming out... there can be so many reasons). I mean, he was trying so hard not to cry whenever he thought of the guy leaving, he was sweet and gentle with him after the kiss although he couldn't look at him because he found it painful that he couldn't let on that he felt the same way... Right from the start is flirting behavior--the way he tackled him was like the only kind of way to get physically close to him in a way that was socially acceptable.. and the reason hinted at that he didn't sleep with his girlfriend was because he wasn't attracted to her that way, and maybe even because he couldn't stop thinking of his best friend. I really found this to be a story of mutual love, just one that had a sad ending and was realistic in the way that... there is usually one who has more guts to at least try for it than the other. And that is what we saw here--the one who went for it was the more feminine looking and vulnerable one, and the one who ran away was your stereotypically 'alpha' type male, who probably was desperate to hold onto how everyone saw him that way. Being gay... makes straights assume that you're not 'manly' and a lot of gay men stay in the closet because they just can't take the feeling of being demasculated, emotionally, by the public and their families..

this is just how reality going to be. not every story end happy and main characters live happily ever after. nice film (:

Actually, it's really weird seeing my comment after a month! I actually did say it and told him everything. He was surprised and found it a weird idea, but he's totally fine with it and accepts it! He's still really kind to me, and that's special? First it was a bit awkward and I just ignored him, but I think that he missed me, so we started to see each other again. But now it's holliday and didn't see him for a while! But I think everything is fine!! I'm over him and I can go on with my life. It was big relief, but I'm so glad that I have told him! It gets better ! He told me that he was straight, but honestly I still have doubts, but if he says that he is straight , I have no problem with it ! My feelings are almost gone now , so I don't mind. :)
Thats a big step! Glad you can go one with your life :) have a great one!
:)

ow thank you ! You too !! :) You look so nice !
Beautifully done! I love you guys--Canadians and Aussies--you are so true....
Why are the endings of gay short films always sad? That's depressing...
TheofficialMBonline nobody knows....
It helps to sell more vodka.
Good short. Clean, yet realistic dialogue and very intimate feeling. Well done
Lovely film about secret passions that suddenly come out and the hardships of leaving all that you know behind. This would be a great feature film too. Mark and Danny would also make a beautiful couple had they hooked up. That was a daring and stupid move 6:23- Danny at least could have had Mark pull over and then kiss him. Ending would have been better if Mark gave Danny a peck on the cheek before he got out of the truck. All in all, the story was good and a sequel would be nice.
Excellent selection. Nice to see something touching but also believable. Thanks.
Ughhh! You have to do a part two!! Where they have a happy ever after!!!
GLS at the end was a nice touch. Thanks for sharing here.
I yet can't understand why all gay movies have a Tragic end
Or almost but the most them
Haha. This is hardly a tragic ending. No one dies or gets injured, and they're still friends. And now there's nothing they can't tell each other! I'm sure he'll find someone to be with in Toronto. He'll always have a friend back home. That's not tragic.
Skam season 3 watch it
It starts to change in four years.
I was totally blown away by the soundtrack of this short film... especially the ending song This is Not Like Home, it still haunts in my mind sometimes when lonesomeness comes around.. :)
Okay. This is a great film. I really loved it - but it took THAT many people to produce a 13 minute film with two actors and a truck? Are you kidding me?
Bigshot lol this is a great point.
I thought the same thing. It looks like they even had their food catered.
Just portrays the way life actually is, instead of a romanticized version of it. I like it
Another unrequited film of young gay possibilities again thwarted by confusion. Ah, young love....
I agree, it is a MUST watch. Very good short film, all around.
I won't watch this because of the commentaries. I want to see love stories!
Diogo I so agree I want to see the Love stories without the Dang Music and all
This was so well put together, it's not like every other film where its either cliche or complete devastation. It's well filmed, the acting was really good, and the story line was great. Good job man. Thumbs up on this one
Beautifully played. As others have said, it would be great to see this as a longer film. Well done everyone involved.
Very realistic storyline. I can definitely see it happening in places like Idaho or something... Very nicely shot. Would love to see more:)
I was waiting the whole time for him to say "next time you kiss me don't do it when I'm driving" and then there to be a make out scene --- WHERRE IS IT
Urie•is•hotter•than•you • I see we both think the same way, I think we should direct our own gay film with a lot of make out and stuff 😂😂
pOtAtO bOi that would of been the best ending ever
this was a pretty good film little akaward at the end. I love it
Excellent short. I could actually feel my throat constrict from all the words they held back. So poignant, so good.
that ending pissed me off
Oi mas que delícias de dois garotos bem bonitos e definidos com amor e carinhos com amor beeeeiiiijos. 🔷🔺♥🔺🔵♥🔺♥🔷🔵🔺♥🔷🔴🔺♥🔷🔴🔺♥🔷🔵🔺♥🔷
Although the film is a gay themed film, and there's a lot being spoken about gay guys being rejected, it's not just them who have to face rejection... As a straight person, I can say that all of us have gone through that... Maybe not outright but by being ignored or avoided.. I hope it makes the gay community feel better.. We're all the same, going through the exact same things! :)
Wonderful movie!
Why the Hell did that little ass rock make that big of a freaking splash?
truly an amazing short film and gives so much room for opinion that is why I love short films !
*Why does every gay movie have to end up like this*
That figures. One of the worst things to do is fall in love with your best friend knowing he can never return the live you want.
Thank you :)
Well done!
they look like younger versions of Sam and Dean winchester.
terrible idea! Bad idea! Awful idea! is good idea to kiss him while drive?? pretty stupid..
Myke J. ikr i facepalmed when he did that
***** lol nobody is for sure
I know right
Even if I had a thing for him, I would have been pissed about being kissed in that situation. The dude was obviously worried about his truck. I think he should had stopped him from driving in the pitch dark and made his pitch.
Thanks. It's a beautifully composed film, and I wish some people watching it could get that it's about two adolescents, not about Society. Lonely people in isolated locales can often have extreme feelings that don't connect with their day-to-day lives, and besides, virgins fumble. (If the boys started having one passionate night, what would that mean for them both after the brunet's departure?) It's a staple of comedy that the odds usually are against sudden declarations of love, or stolen kisses, leading to anything satisfying. This film reminded me of those teenaged years when you couldn't imagine connecting with anyone, the isolation ran so deep. Thanks again, and bravo!
This was so good but why did they have to leave it like that. I was just hoping and waiting but maybe something will happen when next they meet!!! A girl can hope!
Wow, this is a great film, surprising, honest, clean and so real.
tbh the attractive one is laways rejected wtf how
I saw two attractive guys.
This short film stirs up so many emotions... I guess this is what they call catharsis. Why is life so painful sometimes?
dammit- why a sad gay story?! I want happy ending!!!!!
wannaknowit Cause sad stories happend too
really nice movie! but still a bit sad, I wish they could have stayed togather...
thank you for sharing it with us!
Left me feeling a bit mad that their was no happy ending-.-
Let me just comment about the tech aspect for a second. The sound was so well done here... very detailed and subtle. Oscar-good; well done!
Silver Road I hated this short movie, can't believe I did this movie again.
i agree, this is an absolute first for me, that was utterly brilliant.
In the subtitles Danny becomes Daddy and I’m dyeing because of that
Now that I finish the short I’m just sad :/
Great Lake Swimmers this is not like home its on youtube wonderfull song .I'de never heard of them before but they have a few great songs.
Regards
Shane
The guy with the short hair is gorgeous.
+iCamL RBLX i liked the long brown haired guy

iCamL - Not Using Anymore I likeeee you
The actors were pretty amazing. Great short!

peut-on être indifférent devant cette scène d'amour frôlé, tous deux revivront ce moment toute leur vie.
Love is a Two Way Street, Gay, Bi or Straight , Love someone who Loves You Back !
I applaud you on this film🥰 I see an amazing career in your future if thats what you're choosing. This was great work. I was wishing it was a full feature. It was a realistic script. The actors you chose were excellent. Bittersweet ending. 👏👏
I watch 11 mins for 1 kiss what the hell
I don't usually watch gay films. However I am glad my girlfriend made me watch this. This was actually a good drama.
The lives of the vast majority of men attracted to other men are not a litany of bullying, cheating and tragedy BUT pretty much the same as everyone else's on the planet.
You should make a part 2
I'm a sucker for best friends turned boyfriends stories! arrghh guess I'll just imagine they ended up together :( great film
loved it but y does it just end like that
maybe his buddy (the one driving) wasn't so sure yet of his orientation. If I were Danny, I would start to move on and just forget about his friend.
