Goodbye, Charley (2015) User Reviews

Good Bye

[mihai_alexandru_chindris · 7/10 · 16 April 2018]

The sad story of a boy who died and wasn't remembered is told to us. It's sad, mostly. Even as a ghost between humans, he still feels anxiety and pain. He doesn't find his peace, because his love died also.

The Hardest Gay shorts I've ever come across!

[Irishchatter · 8/10 · 30 August 2018]

This was one of the hardest shorts I've ever watched because it really was devastating to see Charley being dead and looking over the high school he once attended. It was even harder seeing his lover in grief while being fully clothed in some of the schools gym showers. I don't know how Charley died but its still heart breaking. I suppose the message this short is giving here that love is love, your loved one is looking down at you so that they know you are ok and that it is ok to ask for support when a loved one is gone. I hope Charleys lover does get the bereavement help he needs and that he knows Charley will never leaves his side ever!

Great short, it did make me so upset while watching it. If you need a good cry, this gay short is definately for you!

Well done

A well done short, with a good story and the right actors. It has a bit of a Teen Wolf feel.

the solitude

[Kirpianuscus · 28 December 2017]

Not the subject but the manner to present it defines this short film. a dead teenager. the memories. the relation. a word on the locker room wardrobe. a ball and few words on it. a kiss. and the need to complete a relation who only has its first steps. one of moving ends. and, maybe, the hope. short, a delicate message about love, life and choices. a film about solitude. and about the need to be loved and the fear of the other and the death as fictional border between worlds. the beauty of "Goodbye, Charlie" is real special. not only for artistic reasons. but because it reminds. old truths, known choices.
