CRUSHED (2019) - a queer short film 🌈

[@mollygirvan4558]

This has happened to me too. I had a sleepover with my old friend I had been in love with for 5 years. I told her I loved her, and then she smiled and kissed me. We kissed 5 times that night. She acted like she truly loved me. The next day, we went down for breakfast and before I had finished she said she was heading upstairs to FaceTime her mom about her ear medication. I went back up to my bedroom, and by the sound of her voice could tell she wasn’t calling her mom… it was her close friend (who was also one of my enemies). I didn’t want to burst in, so I just stood by the door. I couldn’t believe what I heard. ‘Molly’s into girls!!’ I heard her say. At first I thought this was super cute because I thought maybe she was happy about it. But then she said ‘it’s gross… i can’t believe she actually fell for it.’ ‘I would never fall in love with her’ and several more things. I decided to play it like I hadn’t heard anything for the rest of the day, but it was hard. I can’t believe people do this kinda stuff, it’s completely awful to play with someone’s emotions just for attention. Luckily I don’t go to the same school as her anymore, and am happy with my new partner who makes me happy and safe.

So absolutely! I'm also a lesbian; so many gals like just to 'play lesbian' for some reason. To try it, without giving a s#it about the heartache they bring to the girl, who has a crush. So many effin times I was the one with all the effin love. It still hurts so much. Yeah, I've been single for too long, I feel like s#it - and I don't believe anymore that I could ever find my soulmate-girl. So, destiny. I am already 37. There is so much love in me, I wanna share. There ain't nobody. I already am getting used to live without a partner, without love, without woman's love. The worse is, that I feel already too old. Getting into my 30s was very difficult for me. As if.. I know this sounds dumb. I just wanna love & being loved,please

[@djskum]

Straight girls will do that to you every time.

[@mandielou]

Straight people go through just as many issues, but ours are legitimate and natural. And it seems more straightforward to you because you are looking in at natural relations, which is straightforward, the norm and what's Biblically correct. Of course it seems straight forward.. somewhere inside you, you know what you're doing is wrong. I know I did when I was sleeping and carrying relationships with women, I couldn't help who I was attracted too.. so I thought.(I even dated a prostitute, so don't tell me I don't love everyone, or that I'm hateful.. the truth is love, regardless if it "feels" offensive, too you or I. I was once offended by the truth too especially when I had to self-reflect.) But you can, you may still think a woman\man is beautiful but you don't have to lust over him\her anymore. You can fight the urges and after denying your flesh of sin, you can overcome and it'll only be a fleeting thought, if that. Yeshua, the truth, CAN and WILL set you free if you seek it, acknowledge it and accept it when you find it. The Lord wrote his word on all of our hearts, you don't need to have read the Bible to know what's right and wrong. Your conscience tells you that, which is his word written on your heart. Stop going against your conscience. Love is a choice, not a feeling, you can choose who you love. And you can deny your flesh, of your lustful desires. Lust and infatuation are feelings.. don't let your feelings dictate your actions. Again love is a choice.

[@hippiedaze1970]

​@@mandielouI immediately stopped reading your comment as soon as you started mentioning the bible and "the norm." The bible is a million years old. Unlike you we don't live our life based on what some ancient book says. The God I believe in loves all his children equally and that includes homosexuals too.

[@stevecheevers7337]

That's a pretty bad ass ending to be fair. It did come out of nowhere though, would have been nice to see a scene of two of Nicki growing her confidence to really made this end a bit more believable. She knew Ellen would say no but in turn Ellen is outed for her behaviour and Adam definitely won't be inviting her to prom and her bitchy friend will probably turn her back on her. But Nicki gets one over on her. I think the fact Ellen then went off to make out with Adam after she just did with Nicki was where it crossed the line and she deserved that ending. People seem to overlook that the whole friendship with Nicki felt like a set up to try to make Adam jealous and get him over the line to ask Ellen to be his girlfriend. She didn't give two shits about Nicki at all.

[@nikowalkes772]

I understand the ending differently than most of you guys I guess. She was already denied before the whole prom gesture. And even more so after hearing what was said in the bathroom to me that last scene was a way of forced accountability and in essence outing shit behaviour not sexuality. Feelings were played with- therefore accountability has to be taken. That’s why the smirk and the monologue were teasing they weren’t real anymore. The lipstick was a reminder and the kiss left sealed it. You can’t hide what you did

[@stevecheevers7337]

I always saw the ending as Nicki wanting to get back and show up Ellen to give her own taste of medicine. She can't go around using people for her own gains. Nicki had feelings for Ellen, and opened herself up to her. And it meant nothing to Ellen. She knew pretty much Ellen discarded her, so Nicki had nothing left to lose anyway. She gets to take something away from her that she really wanted, to go to the prom with Adam. Many people would say two wrongs don't make a right, but Ellen has probably done this before and would have done it again to another poor person. I agree it had nothing to do with Sexuality but shitty behaviour.

That's my only issue, even a scene or two before to show she's gaining some confidence would have ticked the box. And the ending wouldn't have been a issue for me. But it comes out of nowhere and even though it's a cool ending, it doesn't quite hit as well if seen her growth as a character.

I like, don’t even understand. Don’t get me wrong, I loved it and the ending was perfect but like, did I miss something? Why did Ellen even set her sights on Nicki? What was she trying to accomplish? It feels kinda…hollow I guess? Like there’s this huge hole in the middle, with a bunch of kick ass ideas around it. Ellen just seemed like an average friendly person. Even when she was boning Adam I was like, maybe it’s a whole drunk thing. I saw the shoulder squeeze too but I guess I blamed the alcohol on that too. But then in the bathroom she gave me like, whiplash. And Adam saw them kiss at the party so why was he butthurt in the hall? Help?

[@stevecheevers7337]

This is just my opinion. I don't think it's that hard to see what was going on. The only issue I had was maybe they could have done a scene or two to show Nicki gaining confidence. The ending is cool but comes out of nowhere with Nicki. Ellen used Nicki to make her off and on again Boyfriend Adam jealous, it was coming up to the prom so she wanted him to take her to it. She set her sights on Nicki as she was timid and a bit of loner, and It felt like rumours were going around for a while about Nicki's sexuality (opening scene is a sign of that).So she didn't expect Nicki to fight back and knew no one would believe her anyway. I think her bitchy friend was definitely involved too in it, she was there to scare off Nicki so she would stay away from Ellen. She kind of accomplished what she wanted in a way until the very end of the film. No Ellen definitely wasn't a friendly person imo. She meant to make out with Nicki in front of Adam at the party to make him jealous. I think Adam thought that "ah it's just two girls drunkly making out for a laugh", let's be honest a lot of straight girls do that. I don't think he believed that it was anything more serious then that. Definitley nothing to do with alcohol. Ellen had this all planned out.
