This short film had so much going for it notably the two male leads. They were a couple of regular-looking, straight-acting lads. No prissy effeminacy here or pretending to be butch. They were ordinary guys in a lavatory cubicle.
Even though they were supposed to be straight, they were clearly interested in each other. The mirror sorted the initial contact out for them. But, the hetero rules have to be obeyed. This was absolutely spot on, language, gestures, bragging, all leading up to trying gayness out.
This film expertly packed in straight boys figuratively dancing towards a hook up in a few minutes. The Astronaut Lovers by Marco Berger that I watched a few days ago had the same theme but bored the pants off me with its endless dialogue. Berger should have watched this film to see how it's done.
In the meantime, we saw other slices of life in the mirror or in the cubicles including a couple of guys who didn't hang about.
I strongly recommend this film.
