Second Thought

I hope these two YouTube and social media content creators continue to make videos and films together. This short film left me wanting to know more about what happened in the lives of the two main characters during the 30 years of their relationship. The storyline here was clear despite the fact that there was no dialog audible to the viewer. The music choices contribute to the successful storytelling, as does the expert editing. The performances of the two main characters were very naturalistic and believable. This is a very heartwarming short film. I highly recommend it, especially to others aspiring to make short or longer films. 🎃

Shows what you can do nowadays with just a little money but a lot of thought. Love the mirroring of the actions of the two main actors as youngsters and oldies. To get the greatest audience I liked was done in tegard dialogue. The two main actors really looked like they were falling in love. I also think that Provincetown would love the use of the town as the backdrop. The big question the short brings up is the still problematic question of how gays can find love and the whole hookup situation. My favourite moment was the skateboard and bicycle scene. Can't wait to see what will be produced by this talented duo.

Two teenagers waking up, being part of same morning routine and leaving to pressumed cool location gay friendly.

A message on a social media web, a date, a hot night. And, maybe , nothing more.

But , only maybe.

The simplicity of story, the good looking young actors, the familiar scenes are, at the first sight, the basic virtues of this short film.

But the images about same young men after 30 years are the top of the cake. And the mixture of melancholia and good slice of hope are precious for precise definition of happiness near beloved one.

In short, just charming , scene by scene and, indeed, not only as homosexual story, admirable crafted.

I love this short film. It does speak in so many volumes within the LGBTQIA+ community. It really moved me into tears cause it's truthful, authentic and on point. It touches base on what some of us expierenced in real life. I love everything about it! More short films need to be created in this category on how many of us relate to it. We need more content creators to share their stories or recreate scenes that have total relation to this. If anything needed to be changed by it, I don't think so at all. It's the best short film, at least to me it is. Hopefully this short film can change someone's perspective on how they view the dating life. It's not always the same. 🎃

In less than seven minutes, Second Thought brilliantly forces the audience to confront the reality of life altering consequences caused by chosen behaviors. The film dramatically depicts the polar opposite outcomes, between opportunities lost by shallow behavior, versus opportunities gained by earnest and profound behavior.

The storyline is set in the context of intimacy. It explores and reveals the emotional vacancy of hookup culture, the using and disposing of people as objects to satisfy an addiction to instant gratification, and the resulting inevitable failure to find and form any meaningful relationship to secure the most fundamentally essential human need for deeper and durable intimacy...

Versus...

The alternative possibility of achieving the most rewarding result of a lifetime, one of true happiness that only exists in the finding and nurturing of passionate romantic love between two humans sharing the ultimate connection of mind, body, and soul.
