My 2 cents to the existing reviews: well done. The simple, largely comic story and the happy resolution, along with some great scripting and direction, make this story work. The acting could have been tighter/cleaner, but that's easily overlooked given the rest of the film's strengths, and the actors do give a credible performance. It doesn't end with a bow on it, but there's a lot of hope, and the comedy really both shines through and adds to the story. This could have been sappy or outright silly, but it avoids both pitfalls.

Quality gay short films are in short supply - make sure you add this one to your list.

Haven't seen a little indie like this that I've enjoyed this much in a long time. Kudos to: 1) Great acting 2) Great writing 3) A very interesting plot/story 4) The organic feel of the evolution of the story and characters.

I'm particularly in love with the character of Lily (Leah McKendrick) - she is outstanding. Both of the male characters, Beau (Patrick Zeller) and Caden (Matt Pascua) are excellent, but Lily steals the movie.

If I had anything to grouse about it would be that the story seems a little contrived at points (even with the organic feel I mentioned earlier), especially with the direction of the relationship between Beau and Caden. But hey, with Lily's force of personality and the central struggle of the story I bought it the first time through, so it works.

It could also be a little tighter in terms of directing. Otherwise it's a gem and one of the best gay films of the last several years. Thank you Stewart Wade, thank you actors one and all - really appreciate this work.
