Amusing
preppy-323 November 2009
Cute short about a gay couple (Paul Charney and Daniel Lee) breaking up one Sunday afternoon at the zoo. But instead of speaking in ordinary language they use words that describe the type of sentence or word they would say. Like when would apologize (but not mean it) he says, "Obligatory false apology".

I thought it was cute at first but would wear thin--even at just 5 minutes. But the actors were both attractive and enjoying themselves (especially Charney) and the writing was so sharp and clever that it was consistently amusing. It's a very funny and original way to tell the often told tale of two lovers breaking up. I give this a 7.

Still remember years later
trabay8626 September 2017
This was one of the first videos I ever watched on the Internet and now it's 17 years later and I still think about it sometimes. It's amazing how it's stuck with me all those years. I thought it was a neat idea to say the meaning behind the words rather than the words themselves and I find myself many times doing this in my head when someone is talking to me. I often even think it of myself when making chit chat ("comment about the weather") I find the short film amazing and wish I could see it again
