Future Boyfriend

Temporal mechanics is always fun and this is a great story in a small package. I found their story to very interesting. Worth the time to watch. The actors are brilliant! I hope to see more of them.

A man is having a date with an attractive young woman. It turns out he is from the future and he knows this woman when she is ninety years old. But because he liked the old lady, he wants to go back and marry her. What follows is a hilarious byplay between the incredulous young lady and this dorky guy. Because he knows her from the nursing home he does things like cut her meat for her. Nice comedy timing.

This is a really nice romantic time-travel short film and one of my favourites.

We start by seeing Stuart take Kaylie to dinner at a restaurant. Some of his behaviour is rather strange, but as the story unfolds it all makes sense. I like some of Emily Bell's facial expressions when she reacts to what he knows about her.

Imagine someone came from the future to tell you that all your hopes and dreams for your entire life would fail to materialise and would end up with a lonely existence, as happens to Kaylie here. An opportunity to change your future would be a preferable choice, no matter how bizarre.

The only thing I found silly was the 2D human hologram reminiscent of Quantum Leap, so less one mark.

If you like short science fiction films like this, another excellent one is "A Purgatory Story".

For me, it is one of the most impressive romance film. sweet, delicate, amusing, tender. and, sure, well acted. a story about second chance. and love. and the desire of many from us to fix our/others past. a beautiful film. who, really must be viewed by a large public. for a sort of innocence, always touching, delicate and ...usefull.
