Really, really great. Most short films either make no sense or feel like a warm-up to a feature film. This is a wonderful stand-alone short that tells a great story in just a few minutes. I completely agree with the message board post that said this could and should play all the festivals and can't believe it was made in just a weekend. It's a very funny, sharp piece with a surprisingly sweet turn. That's all I have to say but you have to write 10 lines for this to register. So I'll just reiterate this film is very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very good.

Quite possibly the best short film ever
chriszatil26 July 2004
I had the pleasure to catch this film at an Instant Films Festival and was blown away, to put it mildly. It was flawless. Funny, poignant and even magical. The actors were all terrific, the script was hilarious and the direction was perfect. It was also completely original, which is something very rare. I'm sure I missed a lot of great lines, I was laughing so hard. Then, at the end, it turned everything on its head and I found myself practically in tears. Without giving too much away, I want to say that I was loving it even before the end, but the last shot really put it over the top. There isn't a minute wasted. In fact, it's quite possibly the best use of 7 minutes of your life you'll ever find.
