Sebastian

Written, directed, and starring james fanizza. It's the extended version of the short released in 2014. When alex and sebastian meet, the sparks fly. But alex has a boyfriend. Who happens to be sebastian's cousin! A web of intrigue. Alex's boyfriend comes home in a week, and sebastian is only in town for a short time. So complicated. Of course, it'll all hit the fan at some point, but... who will be happy and who will be sad? At about 48 minutes, the camera is shaky for a couple minutes. It's a bit distracting, during a very serious moment. But it's mostly good! Some good acting, and some not so good acting. But mostly good. It's a week in the life of this circle of friends. And cousins.

I've seen this movie several times and what made me decide to leave a review was largely the cinematography. This movie is so beautifully shot it makes me want to visit Canada even more than I already did before I saw this movie. The acting was fantastic as well. I was really hoping for more films written, acted in and directed by this man because he clearly has a lot of talent and a very good eye. I also loved the apartment it was filmed in, especially the ceiling. I get that that may seem odd but I set out tonight specifically looking for a movie to watch that was visibly soothing which also had likable characters and was very pleased with my choice of this movie.

This came across as a low-budget, poorly written, produced, and acted movie. One always has to be wary when the Director is also the writer and the lead actor. It just doesn't work. Poor audio also seemed to plague the movie and firmly place it in the rank of amateurish productions.

These emotions and sentiments are so crudely handled, which confuses me exceedingly! It's just a hook-up-with-your-cousin's-bf-and-totally-messed-up chaos. Besides, I don't find Sebastian is that attractive!! Two drama queens' lame performance has thoroughly sabotaged the exquisite street view of Canada!

A simple tail, beautiful told. A romantic attraction holding the two men in each other gaze, as they fall passionately in love, over a week. Sebastian meets Alex, through his cousin, who is also Alex's boyfriend, however as the movie shows, love doesn't always go smoothly... Watch and you'll find out...
