Second Thought

This is a good first-effort film from these two. Not perfect, not awful. The stars here are Art and Chris, and whoever the old guys are.

Chris' implied desire for intimacy vs. Art's desire to get his rocks off is well-illustrated and poignant. A little more lead-up could have been helpful, and the photography could have been more crisp and less filmed-through-cheesecloth looking. For a low-budget effort, it's well done and I'm certain that they have learned a lot in self-producing this effort. Some vocalization might have helped define the plot better; maybe next film.

Generally speaking, I'm impressed and happy with the film. There's no major errors in visuals, plot or continuity. Both guys are handsome and act provocative, though they don't seem at all like 'strangers in the night', as they seem to be intended to be.

By the way, Bret LaBelle is nothing more than a 2-second cameo here, and he's only here because his condition for donating production funding for the flick was that he had to be in it. Fortunately, the film's editor edited him as much out of it as possible. He contributes zero to this film, or to any film, as far as I can tell. He's just a guy with dollars who wants to hang around these guys.

Kudos to Chris and Art for a good effort. Can't wait to watch what's coming next!

I really enjoyed every minute off it ! Thumbs up for all the work that Art, Chris and all the others who have worked on this !

In the 6minute during video they give us a story where I think a lot of people will recognize themselves in ! From getting ghosted after the one time hookup to going on multiple dates and creating a bound that leads to an endless love story!

Also excellent choice of location for filming! Provincetown one of the favorite locations for lgbtq community!

My conclusion is ! Go to YouTube and go watch "second thought" ! You will see you're not gonna regret it ;-)

"Second Thought" is a captivating short film that skillfully explores the consequences of choices. The scenes are meticulously crafted, and the chemistry between Chris and Art is palpable, adding depth and authenticity to the narrative. The cinematography is impressive, with thoughtful use of lighting and angles that enhance the emotional impact of each scene. As their first significant attempt at filmmaking, they've delivered an impressive and mature piece. The way they present the theme of choice and outcome is both thought-provoking and engaging, encouraging viewers to reflect on their own decisions. I eagerly anticipate more projects from this talented duo in the future, as they clearly have a bright path ahead in the film industry. 🎃

This film, without dialog, captures a key moment in two young lives. I'm sure many viewers can look back on their own lives and say to themselves "what if?"

Two young men arrange a meet-up in P-Town. This film explores options and outcomes. The photography captures this little town on the tip of Cape Cod effortlessly. They used the imagery of the town metaphorically to enhance the story line. Those who've been to Provincetown will understand the visual idioms.

I had a similar moment over 40 years ago. Amazing how this young crew captured my feelings, then and now. It took me back and made me smile. I'm still smiling.

Watch it more than once. Like a parable you will find more than one level of meaning.

Two teenagers waking up, being part of same morning routine and leaving to pressumed cool location gay friendly.

A message on a social media web, a date, a hot night. And, maybe , nothing more.

But , only maybe.

The simplicity of story, the good looking young actors, the familiar scenes are, at the first sight, the basic virtues of this short film.

But the images about same young men after 30 years are the top of the cake. And the mixture of melancholia and good slice of hope are precious for precise definition of happiness near beloved one.

In short, just charming , scene by scene and, indeed, not only as homosexual story, admirable crafted.
