Scooterman (2010)
Should be turned into full feature

I really liked this short. It has a Richard Curtis feel and is very much in the Brit comic romance genre, but slightly more edgy and better paced. All the classic characters - struggling writer meets posh bird with horrid rich boyfriend and - well you can guess the outcome but there are some neat twists to the tale.
The lead actor is really good - never seen him before, but he has a great range of facial expressions that he uses to tremendous effect in some of the funniest scenes. There's pathos, wit, self discovery and of course redemption - so we're not in unfamiliar territory but hey...when it's done well we're invariably entertained.
This definitely should be picked up by a studio and developed into a feature.
One to watch...........
