Ronny & i

first, for its spontaneity. than, for the status of game of truths. two good friends. a trip. images, words, confessions. and a touching proof of feelings. nothing more. its dynamic rhythm, its beautiful way to show a story presented in too many manners, predictable but, in this case (re)freshing, is the motif for who "Ronny" is little more than a short film about a theme who could be defined as old. because, it is a declaration of life. almost a manifesto. and this is one of its great good points.

"Ronny & i" is a deeply moving and masterfully erotic story of two twenty-something life-long male best friends coming to terms with one announcing his love for the other. Writing, acting and editing are way above average for a low-budget short. The tight script and the actors' near perfect naturalistic styles draw you into this deeply intimate and entirely feasible portrayal of how the two of them navigate this challenge to their friendship. The editing is brisk where it needs to be but scenes are also allowed to linger so the viewer can absorb what is happening both on the surface and at the deeper levels of these two rich characters.

The film was recorded entirely on a hand-held iPhone 5, but you won't notice or care because the camera, via lots of ECUs, transports the viewer into the middle of the characters' process. We see and hear exactly what these two young guys are experiencing as they absorb this newly revealed dynamic in their relationship. The story will grip you until the final scene, at which point you'll wish it wasn't over.

Probably the best short film I have ever seen, loved every minute of it, felt like I was there.

I finished watching it not knowing if this was real or acting. I was so captivated by the entire film. Absolutely love and recommend.

I was perusing short films and was uncertain to commit to 20 minutes (do I sound like I've got a short attention span?). So pleased I did. Deeply emotional connection with the actors. So authentic. Loved it. Had to watch it again. Recommended it to friends. Just brilliant. Gay coming of age done in a Blair Witch style without the horror
