[@raidenthekat2444]

@@redraven1410 I think your looking at the wrong side of hollywood, and it sounds like your making an emotional argument. You can't compare something like Fast and furious or an action film to a drama short, But if you compare 90% of the drama's in hollywood, they are jsut as good(and also set up the ground work for short films like this) Then you have films like 1917-Literally filmed the entire thing to look like one continuous shot. So i understand the Emotional argument "Hollywood is mainstream, and mainstream is bad", but its just that..an emotional argument not grounded in reality.

@@raidenthekat2444 I was stating an opinion. It was not emotionally uttered nor derived. It was opinion. Hollywood has turned out many fine productions , mostly in the past,But for small budget , Independent or crowdfunded short films ,intelligently written scripts,that don't rely on 20 minutes of superhero destruction, CGI, Explosions and gore, I find they are as good or ,imo, better than much if what Hollywood has churned out lately.

In the beginning the other man also emphasise how much the woman came to church. Theres also the line "he grew up as a fine man without your guidance" this doesnt make sense for the brothers son because he knew it already, and would not sting as much as his own son.

The plots and twists in many of these shorts kinda' makes one feel a bit deprived. These are so good that one always longs for a bigger story and a longer film. This one in particular was a super interesting and engaging story...so much so that I would love to see that back story and other characters. Why isn't this at least 2 hours and 20 minutes?!

I'm not sure about all what happened. Evidently the priest is some how tied into the sin that the bearded guy ( the man who confessed ) comitted which was an adulterous relationship. Can anyone explain to me how and how does the priest feel threatened in all this ? I'm a little confused. Thank you

[@RumbleFish69]

@@mikekaroules2820 The priest is threatened because the love child of that adulterous relationship is his nephew (sort of). He thought he was his nephew but he really isn't because the kid is actually the son of the confessor, not the priest's brother, as had believed for 14 years! So, the priest feels threatened because the confessor is dying of cancer and wants to tell the truth before he dies. The priest believes the confessor's dying confession to the community would ruin the kid's life, so he feels threatened. So, he's basically trying to protect the boy from the harm the confessor's public declaration could do to the kid.

@@RumbleFish69 gotcha ; thank you for clearing that up. Good summery. I was thinking the priest might have been responsible for something bad he did but no. Great short movie. Now , actually should the confessor come out with this news - the young lad would not be the only one who might get devestated. It could wreak havok on that whole family , all 3 of them. What a mess.

The guy doing the confessing did a great job.

Two brilliant actors, one bloody good writer, there you go, something you can count on for good 15 mins...
