Long Nights Short Mornings

Pushy, douchbag F-boys thinking that they're emotional gentlemen are the worst kind of characters to base a movie around. I don't care if he has dreamy, artsy ambitions for the future- that isn't cute, or a redeeming quality. And it's such a shame because this is a well constructed and performed indie drama, the exact kind of movie I'm drawn to, just the subject matter is so lame.

Also, why are there so many IMDB reviewers claiming they used to live the sort of lifestyle depicted in this film and can relate to it *so* much, so they *have* to give it a high rating to offset the low average score...weird.

The fight with oneself for affection, love and self-awareness.

I think its a great movie - it reminded me of Alfie so much!

This movie is a very real and accurate portrait of the modern millennial man, and his disconnection from REAL relationships. I found myself weeping at the end because i saw my own face in James, as I'm sure many men our age will, and i couldn't believe that there was a film that so accurately depicted the culture of booze and one night stands. Searching for that great SOMETHING in life, but getting in your own way. I spent so many years on alcohol and drugs, going from one meaningless relationship to another, all the while leaving a trail of broken hearts in my wake.. Little did i know though that in the end it was my own heart that would be broken most completely. The scene where he has sex with lily in the hallway, then pulls out right at the end, refusing to even finish inside her, because he didn't really care about her, and that's all he wanted from her in the first place, not even looking her in the eyes or saying goodbye. The look on her face, knowing that she had been used, really made me feel like crap. This movie is absolutely aching in its honest beauty. From the acting, to the soundtrack, and the writing. Ill place this movie up there with some of my very favorites of all time.

Not your avg dating movie. The mood of the night, the sensuality of a french movie. Love is backside tragedy here. What he looks for is a mentor who can stop him from roaming down a lonely city(travis bicklish!). Amazingly moody and thoought provoking soundtrack by redding hunter. The actings are solid. The use of color and shade to evoke inner personalities. The spaces between dialogues. You remember the falling in loves in your live and all the fu*ed up moments in a instance. Doesn't matter if all the characters are attractive and desolating against you. You see the beauty of one of the last masculine portrayal of wet dream and nonprovoking malegaze. Director took an average storyline and made it a memorable epiphany of coped out relationship isses. Just fu"kin watch and absorb. 8/10 easily.

I love and hate this film, 20 years ago this was me and I didn't know what was going on with me my life, it hit a real nerve and I can see what an idiot I was. And the damage I did to both myself and those around me.

I do hope that others watch this emotional film about the chaotic life that drugs and lack of self worth can drag you into. And I hope that the experiences and knowledge that someone who comes out the otherside gains makes them into a better and more rounded human being.

Long nights and short mornings is brutality honest and true representation of how crazy things can get. And watching this has astounded me so much its like a mirror. It will not be everyones cup of tea but it deserves a better rating.

I love it because it was my life, I hate it because I wasted so many years living this lifestyle.
