Play Me Like That

The film titled, "Play Me Like That" was a work of art.

It was filed with lots of emotion.

It touched on a serious subject, but through creativity and humor the message did shine through.

The acting was suburb and each character nailed their part.

The characters all played off of one another and Nicole's diverse acting skills were terrific.

She showed so many emotions from happy to sad.

The scene where the actors were in the artist studio was tastefully done. Just enough skin was tastefully shown to not distract from the message in the studio scene.

In conclusion, I feel this film was a masterpiece. The fact it was a short film was even more amazing.

I feel the parts that each actor portrayed fit them and their personalities immensely.

I enjoyed this film and look forward to more of Nicole's work in the future.

I give this film two thumbs up.

From playful, sisterly antics to moments of grief and raw emotion, this film shows some of the most intimate, tender moments a relationship can have. Play Me Like That movingly portrays a bond between two sisters. I could feel the history behind Slipper and Crescent, as well as their friendship. I love the blend of more intense dialogue between the sisters woven in with light-hearted dancing and laughter.

The character, Slipper, played by Nicole Gabriella Scipione is especially captivating. Slipper possesses a child-likeness that contrasts with her sister's more practical personality. Slipper is whimsical, passionate, earnest. It's really her story I was brought into, I could feel her longing.

The film is so expertly written and so beautifully acted it immediately pulled me in. It was poetic, heartfelt, sad yet peaceful. I highly recommend Play Me Like That!!

Play Me Like That is a tender, emotionally layered short that leaves a lasting impression. Nicole Gabriella Scipione delivers a near-acrobatic performance-balancing vulnerability, wit, and remarkable emotional range. The film explores identity, memory, and human connection through striking visual poetry and writing that feels both intelligent and alive. Every moment feels intentional and true, with small gestures carrying deep emotional weight. A quiet triumph that rewards close attention-this team clearly poured their hearts and souls into creating something unforgettable and profoundly moving.

A tender and refreshingly honest portrait of sisterhood, this short film captures the quiet complexities of love, resentment, and reconciliation between two women. It thoughtfully explores the rarely depicted emotional terrain of two sisters at a crossroads, as they face a life-changing decision that will alter their relationship. The performances from the cast are superb and heartfelt. What comes about is a film that takes you on a journey of the heartbreaking and hopeful, as our protagonist comes to terms with the unexpected and her own personal journey and hopes for motherhood. A reminder that what we plan for and expect might not always be what we receive.

This moving film beautifully explores the bond of sisterhood. It's quiet moments and honest conversations are powerful and authentic - it's a very touching and accurate portrayal. A talented actress, Nicole Scipione presents a script that is nuanced and delicate, funny and raw, whimsical without ever being trite. The direction brings the gorgeous poetic dialogue to life in something that is next door to realism. Lovely performances all around - Alina Phelan particularly shines in her roll, and she and Scipione have a lovely chemistry together. This is a touching, intimate portrait of shared pain, resilience, and the strength of familial love.
