Recuerdo de una tarde en la azotea

I admitt, I was seduced bz poetrz of this short film.

Two good friends on roof, remembering old facts. The attraction between them and the promise of one of them in familiar fairz tales stzle. Romance and mistery as good used tools for a special atmosphere, for delicate definition of characters , for smart craft of past shadows of their connection and the superb end.

Difficult to write too much because not a story is real proposed-Tavo Ruiy has rich experience in this sense - , but a nice exercise of seduction , working more than well.

And exactly this detail makes this short film a real nice surprise.

I didn't like this at all and wasn't beguiled by it. Bizarrely it started off like many of the porn films from the CiteBeur stable - guy happens to be in a completely random, abandoned, rough place and the partner comes across him as if by chance and the action starts.

Except that there isn't any action. This was so slow I almost yawned.

I didn't find the characters interesting or attractive. Indeed, if I'd been asked to play hide and seek for the sake of a hook-up I wouldn't have gone looking, I'd have gone home instead. The whole thing was so contrived.

It's a good job I didn't take up the offer of one of the actors to leave comments on what I felt about the film. It wouldn't have been kind.
