Lucky Blue

Excellent film that I enjoy watch it many time from time to time, observing in their details. The performance of the cast is excellent much better than famous actors, especially Olle (Tobias Bengtsson) who knows to show perfectly the innocence, brave and love. His sweet and fresh smile fits very well in the film. Credit for the director and the scriptwriter too. it will be one of my film that I keep it close to me, because when after seeing the short film, I can feel the love on the air with a happy ending, that make me feel cheerful. It is a good example of good short film with low budget and only four actors. Thanks for festival I could to know about this films and others,that inspire me to write some short novels and scripts.

Interesting short gay themed movie.

It is all about this strange chemistry between two people falling in love with a mixture of emotional and intellectual activity.

It is not a simple "both falling in love story".

To dare to tell his love but when in love, the brain needs to feel similar feeling from the partner, always afraid to go too far and trying to get back: "three steps forward and a two steps back". Furthermore, they do not share the same mood at the same time.

Or Kevin is "not sure" about himself, not sure of his emotional feelings".

"Am I drunk" , "Are you drunk ", "Are we drunk " they often say. Is lucky bird still in its cage or not?

Typical dichotomy between brain and heart when brain takes over heart : "The heart has reasons which reason does not know".

sweet-bitter atmosphere. perfect cast. wise story. inspired atmosphere. a form of realism who gives seductive form of realism. because it is a film about past and memories and clash between different manners to understand the life. all presented in delicate manner. the contrast between Olle and Kevin is the most important virtue of this short film about holiday, self definition and new beginning. Britta Andersson does a great job , giving the key -character, who knows, who looking preserve the equilibrium, who preserves her fears and see the right solution of a possible crisis. and Tobias Bengtsson seems be the best choice, maybe only for be Olle. a beautiful film. that is all.

For me, this film is a masterpiece -- albeit its short length.

It all began when Kevin happen to travel with his aunt and met with Olle in a holiday trailer park. Considering its short length of the film - I would feel remorse of disclosing any plot after this :).

What being the most powerful way the director managed this film is that - instead of using complex plot, tragedies, and multiple characters that many full length movies use- the director has eliminated all these noises and focused into the 'passion' and 'affection' component of the film and let those carries the story until its very end which makes this movie very powerful.

I had never been impressed with 'coming out' short story because most of them ends in either separation, deaths, tragedy or just filled with other ambiguities that leaves the audience lingering unsatisfied. But Lucky Blue proves me wrong.

The simplicity and the short length of the film, for me, certainly has accomplished its true purpose that is not only to entertain but also to inspire and gives hope to people affected by such sensitive issue.

I never was much of a fan of the short film genre. this movie proved me wrong and how. i was blown over by the sheer restraint that the director showed. not too long, not short - just perfect.

added to this is the brilliant performances by the cast. The sets are nice and the score is great.but what makes it a gem is the feeling that if such and such were the circumstances, this is the way that it would happen. you just marvel at the realism. And wish the tale for yourself - in real.

OK - words don't come easy to me- either:)

Strongly recommended..
