I'm back watching this short probably 10 years later.I just love it! I just thought of it and had to see it again. I think we all would love to have had a Stu when we were their age.

"Stu, you smell nice, Thank You !" When Davy put his hand inside Stu's rugby shirt, it mad me quiver. So tender and raw, Yes, it brings back memories of teenage angst. Double difficult when it comes to teenage homosexuality !

By far one of my favorite gay coming-of-age short films. The endearing feels and touching aura it exudes is just so beautifully filmed and executed-words almost fail to describe it. Truly this one is a gem among so many other films like it and I proudly recommend everyone watch this as it sticks with you after the credits roll. Nicholas Cutro and Travis Walters were both so lovely when they starred in this piece and the chemistry they had is too angelic and pure. The subjects of boyhood folkloric fears, future goals, and adolescent romantic feelings are wonderfully illustrated in the script. God bless everyone who helped create this film.

One of the best short films I have ever seen. I keep coming back to it over and over again. The plot works on many levels. What is clear, of course, is their deep love and affection for each other. Both Davy and Stud are American actors and are not Scottish. Stu is is actually an Italian American and has the classic looks of an Italian,. Trust me, I see his good looks every day on the train here in Rome. LOL. He looks more like an Italian soccer player than anyone from Scotland! LOL. Concerning the accent or what is better described as a dialect of English, at first it is difficult to understand. However, if I as an Italian can understand it after a few viewings , native speakers of English, even Americans with the little patients, will certainly be able to understand the dialogue. Believe me, it is well worth the effort. Ciao!

Basically for those of you who don't understand, there is a LOT of Folklore here in the U.K and this story uses folk stories to add a twist. Not many will get it just because people tend to know or hear about stuff like "bloody mary" more than any other foreign folk tale. You have to have had the experience to understand. They're talking about a bedtime story they grew up with, which has a complex impact on them and how their relationship develops. I saw this Years Ago and it still is a Top one in my books.

The way they look at each other sometimes indicates a certain attraction and Stu is undeniably extremely cute. They talk about this and that, get close and move apart and finally, Stu makes a move.... but the camera moves away and the credits begin to roll when I suppose they are about to kiss, which is what I at least was hoping to see. Great setting, good acting till that point and it's nice to hear Scottish voices for a change.

Truly a beautiful film and a great story. You can feel the attraction and energy in almost every moment. When Davy finally touches Stu’s chest under his shirt, it’s explosive. Just lovely. I know this was completed years ago but someone should add English sub-titles. KZbin’s auto-generated closed-captioning program cannot understand the accent. I hate losing any of this story. Great film.

It's a wonderful, sensitive film with a touching ending. The reason people are having so much trouble with the accents is that they are all over the place. Sometimes it's Scottish. Sometimes it's Ulster. Sometimes it's the Irish Republic. Occasionally, the vowels are New England. They needed a dialogue coach very badly, but maybe the budget couldn't stretch to it. It's so sad that the younger actor, Travis Walters, who played Davy, died at only 21.
