Well-done but seems unfinished
preppy-313 May 2010
Warning: Spoilers
SPOILER!!! Two friends--Eric (Artie Ahr) and Matt (Patrick Stafford)--hang out together and do drugs. Then they go to a friends house and get acid. They take it and go to Matts' house. Then Eric takes a shower and calls Matt in. Matt strips down and joins him. They kiss and some sex begins to occur.

Nothing explicit is shown (expect for Satffords' bare butt) but this is well-done and interesting. It's beautifully photographed and the acting is great--but what IS the point? The short ends with a lot of questions left unanswered. In a way that could be the point--to let viewers draw their own conclusions--but I would have liked a better resolution. Still it's worth catching a look at for the acting alone. Stafford especially is excellent.

Two friends. A day defined by smoking pot, a visit, a shower together . Gestures more than words, graceful storytelling, exposing vulnerabilities and links defining true friendship. An opened end, giving aspect of sketch to film. Beautiful music - as reflection of emotion and admirable acting. Short, a profound inspired film, looking for not demonstrate or conince or be pledge but, for its realism, reminding small, essential things, inspiring fresh emotion and giving just fair portrait of friendship and making a real good job at the intimacy level in shower scenes.
