Sacrifice

I just came across this wonderful film today in a short film collection I had purchased a couple of years ago. Absolutely stunning, moving, and beautifully acted. I did not know anything about this film before I watched it, but generally I am a big fan of Australian movies. This one did not disappoint. I am usually not one to cry during, or even be especially moved by, most films, but this was really an exception for me. Fortunately I have this on my hard drive, and definitely plan to watch it again.

Not sure what more I can say about this film - just watch it if you get the chance. You will not be disappointed! If I could give it more than 10 stars I would!

Such a deep and complex short film. Great acting and the plot and actors showed some real emotions that made this a real gem to watch. This could be made into a feature film honestly.. perhaps in the future? Anyway this is easily a 10. A must watch.

I am blown away. I would give anything to change the ending. Blake and James are the ultimate goal of a true and honest love story. The actors are nothing short of superb in creating something real and true. Everett and Smith meld together in perfect unison. This is not your average short film. It is in a league of its own. Well Done!

This title really says it all - Sacrifice. I don't really write many reviews on here but after watching this I felt like i needed to write one. Great directing and acting, especially the chemistry between the leads Leigh Smith and Jesse Everett. The connection they built and the loved they showed was spectacular and helped take the film to the next level. I highly recommend this.

The beautiful virtue - the predactiblity. You know, you feel it.

The second good point - the acting.

Not the last, the message , simple, direct, minimalistic crafted, defining the duty, the love, the choice and the expectation. It is important the final impression - Sacrifice is little more than a homosexual short film, but a lovely- touching- profound inspired definition of the intense affection for beloved one, army and the bad news who can not be accepted.

The freshness of story and performances, this makes real special this short film who, in simple terms, says exactly the universal fears , feelings animating many from us.

So, normal gratitude.
