Thank you so much for taking the time to watch our short film. This was me and my husband’s very first film project and we couldn't be more proud of it. Please continue to share and get the word out.
I lived this short of the marriage. However, I'm pleased to say that we are still friends, best friends, to this day.....47 yrs. since the day we met. My life without her would be completely shattered. You can love someone with your whole heart and still not be able to love them the way they need to be loved.
I could not have said it better! My ex wife is my best friend and we still work together every day. She also adores my partner! It just worked out for the best except I don't like the way her current husband treats her.
The feeling when you realise that clock has run out on a relationship is such a complicated mix of sadness, relief and everything in between. If it really meant something then something of your future identity as well as your current one gets all jumbled up. This was so well observed. Thank you
The chemistry between both characters is mesmerising. You really do believe that they tragically fell in love and despite the changed circumstances , still do. Both actors are beautiful to look at, but convey a fragility which belies their handsome exteriors.
You unknowingly put them together, help them find themselves, and end up having someone else enjoy the product of your love and care. This one really resonated.
We have all (or most of us) suffered a broken heart. Losing a partner to a new person or a new life still hurts for the one left behind. I have felt everything she felt and still do. Hard to believe all those emotions were expressed in such a short film. Well done.
Stunning work. I felt the pain, heartache, bitterness, resentment, sorrow, and love between the two leads. You found two amazing actors and your entire crew did amazing work. Thank you for sharing your personal story. That takee courage. I'm glad your ex-wife was supportive of who you are, despite the emotional pain she was in. I hope both of your lives are fulfilling and happy these days. ❤️
WOW, my tears drop, I'm so touch with this short film like..I'm hurt. They really care for each other, nice acting and they convey the message like natural flow, you can feel the blow. The message is great and the creation, I just felt I'm in there physically. Stories like this happened and sadly not all ending like this,accepting and understanding even it hurts, mostly end up messy, tough being an enemy.
Fabuloso! Estupendo cortometraje!! He visto cintas mayores que no reúnen ni la mitad de la calidad de este corto, sumando horas. Un trabajo excelente, Sr Landry: es usted un director de altísimo nivel. Increíble.
Thank you so much for taking the time to watch this and comment. Means so much to hear such positive feedback on this personal and special story. Please share so others can see it!
Great Short in every sense of the word. The direction, cinematography, editing and acting were just beautiful and perfect. Never met Michael King but I know he is a great talent as we almost worked on a project years ago.
Fantastic! For anybody who gone through that, her words “You get to start a new life, I HAVE to start new life”. Its a big difference. I remember that.Those words burned into my memory . Painful. But , beautiful film. Thank you.
Excellent actors, writing, producing. Great work guys.. The story was so gut wrenching and the actors didn’t miss an opportunity to make you feel. Seeing him start to break down when the taxi drives off.. made my heart sink.. and seeing the tears falling down her face.. said they truly loved each other. I would love to see a follow up a few years later. I would love to know if his relationship lasted and if she found someone to heal her broken heart!
Thank you sooo so much for taking the time to watch our film and to share your thoughts. We really are so proud of our first short film! And we agree our actors really did the thing. They are so talented and it was an honor to have them help tell my story. Please share our film if you can🙏 we really appreciate it.
An outstanding cinematographic work: The writing, directing, acting, cinematography, setting, dialogue (especially good) - it's all there.. One of the better "shorts" that I have seen.
Wow such a beautiful short! The acting, editing, story are all so well done really! Truly moving! I could feel their pain and love for each other. Thank you for capturing the more nuanced and complex forms of love and relationships that exist among us!
Dude! My God this was a very powerful 10 minutes. Exquisitely done!! I can relate to this so much as a 47yr old bi guy. Could only imagine what you could make if given a budget for a full length film. Excellent actors as well!! Wow!!
Thank you for so much for taking the time to watch and share your own reflections. I hope this film helps people in some way! And we are definitely working on a full length version of this! Thank you again
Great short film - loved the videography, there's great chemistry as well! It evokes different emotions for different reasons but it tells a great story.
This is such an interesting perspective. right now I’m living a different version of this. Thank you for posting this. 💙 can’t wait till I can move on.
Great ! Many emotions. I can feel their pain but we must never have to hide our real nature even for love. Many thanks for creating this movie. Very good acting and touching storyline. Bravo.
@@landryandhaynes AMAZING work Michael. Michael King is a buddy of mine and this is some of his best work I've seen. It was beautiful and broke my heart all at once. Everyone did an amazing job.
The film was short but so full of raw emotion, exceptional acting and realism. I felt so bad for these two young people. Im glad it was not a movie or a series because the audience would have had to endure the pain of actually seeing the relationship fall apart and I liked both of the characters. So let me just say this was excellent film making and I look forward to your other projects.🙂
Thank you so much for taking the time to not only watch our film but to also share your thoughts. We are really proud of this one as it was our first film project ever. It’s based on real events in my own life. We do a feature length version of this idea that we have been writing:) We would greatly appreciate sharing this film if you can!
Thank you so much for the kind words. While we are in the early stages of developing a feature length version of this story, we are also about to start filming a new series that we are really excited about. Check it out at wwguseries.com
Great film! Quality is good and the characters are great! The story line was captivating and kept my attention throughout the entire piece! Great work!
Beautiful film, well acted but it's not heartwarming. It's sad. When Grayson should have been coming to terms with his sexuality, he caved to society's perceived norms for acceptance and married. And when he did finally admit his desires, he ruined another person's life. "You get to move on. I have to." Sad, but all too often true.
I wish it was that easy to end the relationship. And then, "It's another sweet story of the free people living in a free world". However, this is an excellent short which does, in the best possible way, what a story or a film in this case is supposed to do, connect with the audience in a purely emotional way. Weldon Michael Landry and the rest of the team. Love from Pakistan ❤
It would have been nice for him to apologize for hurting her and causing so much upheaval in her life. It wouldn't have detracted from him happily living his truth.
Sarah Hagi - from Scamfluencers - said it poignantly when she reminded us that ‘divorce is always an option.’ I was in a relationship with a man who was sexually confused; we are definitely not friends; it took me a long time to finally pack my things and walk the f**k away, plunging myself into unknown and having to change the entire trajectory of my own life-path. The point is: no matter who it affects, no matter how big the consequences seem, no matter how treacherous the pain may feel, the other side of a divorce is necessary and it teaches you to be strong.
… a very poignant moment in the lives of human beings… beautifully presented in film… I just wonder how he might have behaved if SHE had found “happiness” with another woman…
This short film does not really feel like a LGBT what-ever. It is very interesting and I REALLY like it, but is a straight story with a small gay chapter.
@@marecku21 Grayson left his wife because he was in love with another person, which is often the cause of the end of a lot of couples. This third person is in this "incident" another guy. These kinds of cases end up with the guy hiding his not-so-straight side, and dumping the other guy. This situation is different, the story has a respectful ending, which is a good thing, but the story "per se" just shows a line of "straight" pictures and situations about a divorce. BTW there are no such things as "faux" straight couples. Almost half of humanity - without religious taboos - has a fluid sexuality. And if you didn't know, regulation of sexuality gives excellent leverage to instrumentalize humans in every self-destructive way that you could think of and opens every possible door to abuse them. There is always a political organization behind these kinds of manipulative ways. Churches, States, or pharmaceutical companies, the names are different, but the goal is always the same!
“I did the only thing that I could and that was to burn my life to the ground.” Uhhhh no. You burned *her* life to the ground. It’s exactly what the wife said: You get to start a new life, while she *has* to start a new life. As in she has no other choice. She has no choice but to wake up every morning knowing the man she fell in love with never loved her and is never coming back. She has no choice but to grieve and feel like she wasn’t good enough. You on the other hand get to be who you were meant to be. Your misery is over. Do NOT compare your pain to hers! Note: Yes, I’m aware it’s only a story. But things like this happen all the time. And it’s devastating.
A beautifully cruel film. Men know exactly who they are from day one, even at a primal level. You don’t try to cover your insecurities with another and then realize you need to be free. Step outside of the bubble long enough to know that what you think you need is truly not what you want. Be honest with yourself if no one else.
This film should have 100s of 1000 views. It’s a mini masterpiece in 9 minutes. Thank you for sharing.

So beautiful! “You get to start a new life. I have to start anew.” Chills.
I know right! Teri Wyble’s performance is stunning! Thank you for watching.
The "I HAVE to" we use when we don't want to do something....
and sometimes will never do...
Some of us just carry on with broken hearts.
Very good. I lived exactly this years ago... that was hard. But the beauty of the 15 years with her, will last within my heart forever

Question - is it okay to have drinks on the pool table in your side of the world?
It would have been nice for him to apologize for hurting her and causing so much upheaval in her life. It wouldn't have detracted from him happily living his truth.
You should try adding a couple kids whom you both adore to the mix!

Very hard very painful i had this experience
This short film does not really feel like a LGBT what-ever. It is very interesting and I REALLY like it, but is a straight story with a small gay chapter.
Grayson left his wife Sarah because he's gay. So it was a faux hetero couple. Far from being a small chapter, the gay part dominates the entire story.

He done her wrong--he's not 18, this isn't the 1950s. And I'm gay.
