Identiteaze

There was maybe on interesting part but for the most part I think they were trying to be clever but everything just fell little short a nice first try for a writer I do hope they do well and continue I feel they could get stronger as they go.

Was nice to get Q (John de Lancie) in it, he is a very under rated actor and deserves a lot more credit, not quite on the voice lever as someone like Morgan Freeman but very recognizable when he is talking.

I would say it is not something I would go out of my way to watch again, but if you do come across it you would not be wasting your time to watch it.

First, I'm trying not to be parasocial here. I have followed Jessie Earle for a while and in general I like her content. So, you might want to keep that in mind.

I do like the idea of the movie. The themes are kind of in-your-face, but you have to do that in a short (even if this is pretty long for a short), where you don't have the length of a feature to explore these ideas. I'm boringly cis, but it's not hard to identify with what's going on.

The problem is that the dialogue is awkwardly cliched and I mean distractingly so. This is weird as Earle is a writer in her dayjob. The script definitely could have used another pass with just trying to say these things aloud. I mean, that is the place where you can do the cheapest work to improve the quality of the work as a whole in a small budget production such as this.

In the end, there is much to like here, but the dialogue does take away quite a bit.

As a trans woman i really enjoyed it and hope this gets picked up as a series. Everyone needs to support this and get it made into a series. Like it delves into identity and how we cant be told where we fit and I love Jessie gender for making this. I also Love John de lancie! He did the Q snap thing from star trek lol. My friend saw it too and loved it as well. I wish this project luck in getting more episodes made. This needs to become successful. Trans themed shows are something we need more of,m especially made by trans people. Trans rights are human rights and i hope to learn more about the story here and get to see so much more. I have so many questions!

I didn't really know what to expect exactly, but i thought it was well done. The performances were solid, and the dialogue worked for me. Don't want to say too much without spoiling something, but our two main characters and the actors who play them do a very good job of being distinct and yet having some essence in common. Part of that is the dialog and part of that is the actor. The sterile look works for what this is about; and that ending is eerie. The use of a turntable was particularly interesting; given how often records tend to scratch (around me anyway). And the song is a banger. I'm very glad I watched it; movies with horror undertones don't tend to appeal to me; but this one worked.

Went into this worried to be honest, as I'm a fan of Jesse and wanted the best for her first big production. I was worried that I wouldn't like it, and I'm easily turned off from watching things due to my short attention span (thanks ADHD)...I'm typically hard to please. Although I'm a fan as mentioned before, I feel it is kindest to creators that you are honest with them and let them know upfront if you don't feel they would thrive in an endeavour, as ultimately it would lead to pain and disappointment for them down the line if you tell them white lies.

However I really enjoyed this short, of course there are parts of the dialogue that I would change as it was a tad too existential for me, but appreciated it for what it was trying to do.

I enjoyed how clean the film work was, the actors performed well and sets were pleasing to the eye.

Being as this is a start to what I hope is a long career for Jesse this is really promising and I look forward to seeing what she creates next, if she decides that this is ultimately what she wants to dedicate herself to.
