Shoes Off!

A young man sees a beautiful girl and decides that it's time to stop living in the comfort zone where there is no excitement beyond paying the rent and buying a new toilet bowl brush.

A funny and creature little flick, this one is charming and should be seen. The music is impressive and the acting is a delight.

This is a charming short film. At first, I was a bit put off because it seemed as if the film was made by someone with a shoe fetish, though I guess this is all pretty harmless in this case. The camera focused a lot on feet as did the plot--plus the main character in the film first noticed a gorgeous woman NOT for her face or body but because of her black boots. Odd yes, but not so creepy that it impacted my enjoyment of the film (unlike another short, BABETTE'S FEET).

The film begins with our exceptionally shy hero on an elevator. A beautiful woman steps on with her flashy boots and practically every guy is attracted to her (and the camera keeps focusing on the boots). The guy wants to ask her out, but is just too shy. So later, he follows her to a housewarming party and builds up the courage to crash the party to meet her. Things DON'T go as he'd want at first, but things somehow manage to work--and it's all very cute and a nice little romance.

Well made, interesting and well made--this one is a winner. But why all the shoe shots?!

I love Shoes off and I have a strong fetish for women's boots and many men's dream is to have a girlfriend who wears boots. I really love Deanna Milligan. She was great in those black boots and so was she. Deanna also wears nice brown boots(Brown boots are my personal favorite)in the A&E TV movie Karoll's Christmas. Sadly she didn't wear them at the end of that movie. But I do hope to see more of Deanna possibly wearing boots in future work.

I like at the end of Shoes off where the guy Stuart played by David Lewis helps put on Deanna's boots. I would love to do that if I had a girlfriend who wore boots. This short film is a must for boot lovers and you should check out Karoll's Christmas on A&E where Deanna wears nice brown boots while entering a coffee shop and puts her boots on with her Christmas nightgown when she walks out on her boyfriend played by Tom Everett Scott. Sadly she does not wear them at the end when he proposes to her at her concert where she is wearing a gown.

There is something irresistibly sexy about black boots. And the director/writer of this film knew that those boots would tell a thousand words when he wrote his minimal dialog film.

It's the story about a man who goes on a journey to work up the nerve to live dangerously in his mundane life. When he finally decides to go for it... he gets the girl of his dreams as a reward.

The music really set the mood for the film. With not a word uttered until the last third of the film, it keeps your interest all the way along. There is nothing like a woman in black boots. And Deanna Milligan wears them as sexy as they can possibly get.

A delight to watch, and maturely shot. This is a must see for short film watchers.
