It's Still Your Bed

Gaydar is a tough thing to define. This small film packs a lot of practical lessons about it. A student returns home for the summer to find that his room is occupied by a hired hand on the family ranch. At first there is some tension between the two for obvious reasons. It is the student's bed after all. They become room mates. Slowly but not too slowly, the attraction between the two young men evolves and without any explicit words between them they solve the code of recognition that all gay men must master. It only takes a little spark to set the stage for.....well, no spoilers. This is a very nice little film with a big story to tell.

I don't understand the negative reviews that other people have written for this terrific gay themed short film. This is a perfect short film - everything is in balance and it works beautifully. I have literally watched 1000's of short films and 80% are always let down by something. "It's Still Your Bed" is the perfect short film and that's why I give it a 10/10!!! I loved this short film and would love to see what writer and director Tyler Reeves could do with a full length feature film. All the actors did a great job as well. Well done. Thanks Tyler - I really appreciate this film. Cheers :)

A simple story, well known in fact. Two cute young actors, the accidental meet, the father as secondary character, the evening with friends and the moment of truth. A single scene, the scene of napkin as tool for a not comfortable action, for a part of public, shared by boys, can be little original and, after the first impression, poetic. But the film has just the status or virtue to remind . Old films, a lot of memories and similar scenes, familiar emotions.

I personally would not recommend this to anyone but gay men; there's some pretty fun explicit raunchy stuff going on that isn't going to make much sense outside of the "community". At the same, time there is no nudity below the waist.

The testosterone level in that bedroom would be through the roof! I've been in situations vaguely like that a couple of times, and its pretty crazy. Both actors are hot young gay-guys in real life, which I think brings an interesting energy. Their subtle chemistry as they check each other out, wondering if they can negotiate a hookup, is great. One little finger covertly caressing another's can work wonders!

It would be fun if this short was expanded to feature length, as some previous gay shorts have been.
