Karry Best movie of this year hands down!

VividSimon Simply Perfect

Gutsycurene Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.

Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

Paul Provoking short, I think brilliantly written, directed, filmed and acted. Im understanding the challenges, yet I'm not reading in any reviews or plot summaries, the story behind the pills and anxiety. The prostitute was molested and now has crippling anxiety and the son is dealing with monsters under his bed, i.e. father molested or is molesting him. Hustler and boy identify the common thread, and the cycle ends for both. Monsters gone, pills no longer needed, healing begins. If you notice, the son watches his father and hears him say to the prostitute, I don't pay you to play with my son, I pay you for me...then aggressively forces himself on the hustler...son identifies at that exact moment and doesn't say a word and behaves not as if it was normal, you can see he knows its a violation, but yet, it's been done to him. So, he empathizes with the hustler, hustler affirms he just dealt with the monster, for them both. They now heal. Possible I'm over complicating the story..?

preppy-3 Short about male escort Mark (Michael Ellison) who suffers from anxiety attacks. He goes to a clients hotel room...but runs out of his pills. His client has to leave for a while and Michael runs into his clients 10 year old son Justin (Truman Chambers) who believes there's a monster under his bed. Mark tries to get rid of the kid but then realizes that this might be what he needs.Kind of vague but ultimately touching little short. The ending is a little too pat but it is a (sort of) uplifting one. The acting is great by Ellison and especially Chambers. The whole film takes place in a hotel room and the corridor outside which actually helps the film. An interesting little gay short.

Havan_IronOak It's never explained why this young man has turned to prostitution but it's heavily suggested that a drug habit is involved. What pain the drugs are masking is left to the imagination. As with many short films, this one poses many unanswered questions about motivations and back-story but this film is successful in getting you to care somewhat for the characters.It's an apt snapshot but not much more. It suggests that the director has potential but it will require a more fully developed story-line to tell for sure. The young kid and the prostitute were bot well cast but the other man seemed too young to be the father of a kid that age. I felt a short bit of disappointment at the end in the denouement. I expected the film to come to a better conclusion than the walking away scene that we get.

Lea (LeaDork) The filming and camera angles were mesmerizing and made this short film that bit more fascinating. The story is one that holds many morals and shows a choice someone can make. In this it regards a male prostitute turning down work because he knows there's a child near by.It's a truly touching bit of film, and all the actors are perfect and have utter conviction, although the child in my mind should have been younger with his script seemingly immature. Yet this works, it brings it a brutal honesty.It is compelling from the start, and all the action is filmed mainly in one room, and this brings to it a sense of the claustrophobia all the characters must be feeling about different aspects of their life.It was truly very enjoyable, and well worth watching.
