'I'll Wait for the Next One...' is a dark comedy short film that was made in 2002 in France. A woman who wants a romantic partner rides the subway. When she is riding the subway, a man introduces himself. He makes a speech about his name, his work, and his salary, and how he wants a wife. However, another man who is married says: "Stay single!" and talks about why a man who wants a wife should not get married. After a quarrel between the two men, the man who wants to get married says a woman who wants to get married with him should get off the train. I enjoy this film because the woman has rich emotions. The woman does not say anything, but she is expressive. So, I can understand her thinking and enjoy it. For example, when a couple is passing on the other side of the escalator, she stares at them. We can feel she wants a lover because of her fine behavior. In this way, we can understand her thinking without her dialogue. The action of the man who wants a lover is also funny. I have not seen a performance like his and I can enjoy this action that is not in everyday life. In short, you can enjoy it!
I'll Wait For the Next One is sad film.
There is a single women. She has hopes of being with someone. She ride a train. Suddenly, a man began to speak. He is a single man, and looking for a partener. He said If you are impressed by my speech, Would you like to get off with me at the next station? Then, she is impressed and get off the train...
In this film, She has no dialogue, but her expression shows all her emotions. Her action is amaizing. It's a very short moment in life, but It had a huge impact on her life. This film deal with love. The issue of love is very important for single women. This film reveals the fact. It makes me a little sad. I reccomend it.

A lonely woman goes on about her life until one day, the ride on her usual train takes an unexpected turn, changing her life in the mere span of a few minutes.
It's a well-crafted short, from start to finish. The actress does a magnificient job showing the sad, lonely side of the character, which makes the audience take a liking on her earlier in the short. There's humour in it too, and the cadence of the dialogue makes the audience follow the slow but steady flow of the plot.
The simplicity and familiarity of the setting (coming home from work, getting on the train to share your personal space with strangers for as long as the ride lasts) adds to showing how easily events in the short could happen in real life. How humans can be cruel without meaning to, and how they can also be very naive when hope is an option.
The naiveness of the woman, her hope to finally stop feeling lonely, is what gives this short that special touch.

"I'll Wait For The Next One" is a French short comedy drama film. It was made in 2002. A woman walks to the station with a lonely expression. When she gets on the train, a man also gets on it to introduce himself and says that he is looking for love to passengers in a loud voice. The woman has a puzzled look at first, but she comes to be interested in what he says and sympathize with his view of love. It is a story with a surprise ending. The title implies that the women waits for her destiny and I think she is so bored in her daily life so that she wants to believe the one and fate. However, I suppose the man makes fun of the women who are looking for partners seriously and I don't think it is a funny joke. I sympathized with her in the film. Furthermore, I have empathic embarrassment to watch this film. I believe people who care what other people think much would feel this embarrassment. I think the film is worth watching because it gives the audience the lesson that there some things are too good to be true.
I will wait for the next one is a short film and the leading character is a woman who has no dialogue. When she arrives at the station and goes down on the escalator, her gaze is drawn to a couple. She looks sad and bored by her day-to-day life. On the train, a man suddenly introduces himself and speaks out that he is looking for a lady who can share true love with him and then asks passengers to get off at the next station if interested. She gets curious.... While I think this film is flawless in its technical aspects, after I watched it, I felt really frustrated about the narrative. Contrary to the man, the woman doesn't say anything and only has facial expressions, but I can image her romantic background for some reason such as marital status in the past. I am curious about what happens next for the woman and the man and the situation on the train. I think this film is worth watching.
