We don't know either way if he really knew or not. But based on Collins reaction (obvious shock) when he finds out that she was pregnant and the baby died, I would trust that he genuinely didn't know. So to hold him responsible for it seems rather ridiculous in that context. Keep in mind also that George would have been a small child when it all happened so his understanding of the complexity of the situation and who knew what would have been rather limited - Obviously he took on some of his father's anger and carried it around with him for years - it made him bitter and vengeful toward someone he didn't even know. That is certainly not something to praise or aspire to.

Remember it happened during summer vacation, he didn’t live there, and they were both drinking & enjoying themselves, certainly not thinking about consequences as kids would. Imagine, George actually killing Colin and another version of the truth pops up …. would like to see that film!!!

Nobody's talking about one little detail: What happened to Paul!? My hypothesis is that since they thought Paul was the father for years, that means the diary wasn't found/checked till years later after Lucy's suicide. And George said they can't ask Paul about who the father is because what happened to Paul ...so there is a possibility that their father killed Paul before George read Lucy's diary, and why it took so long for George to find Colin is because there was some years that the family thought they already killed the Lucy's love interest Paul until George who didn't believe it was Paul found and read the diary.

Same! I was 2,500 km from my hometown at the very start of my Paramedic career, worked with a qualified Paramedic who happened to be relieving for a few days from another town 150km away & we discovered that we were born on the same day, same month, same year in the same hospital. I suspect there was a nurse whispering “become Paramedics” to both of us! Would love to meet anyone else born with us to see whether they ended up as Paramedics too. Mind you, my “twin” & I met by random chance or universal design. He definitely didn’t track me down to accuse me of basically murdering his sibling 😳

@@cas4040 Are you sure? I see quite a few comments on this video about running into someone from back home while far from home. Is every single one of them "whooshing" everyone? With so many details in each story, as opposed to something closer to a one-liner (if it were, indeed, a "whoosh"), it seems more likely they missed the part about it not being by chance.

I had a friend who was a recovering drug addict. Tragically, she had a lapse and overdosed. Due to the circumstances, we never knew if it was intentional or not. She was a sweet person in many ways... Innocent in many ways. However, her lack of impulse control meant she often got on people's nerves. A friend said to me, it was peculiar how people had it so backwards. Before her death, they would blame her for their reaction to her behaviour. After her death, they would blame themselves for her actions. Ultimately, suicide is the decision of one person.

Thank you very much for this excellent short film. I started watching short films not to long ago, and like this one, each one has been excellent. I am now hooked and watch as many as I can. Punch-Drunk in particular was truly amazing, I was hooked on the conversation that developed and transpired between the two men and the very clever finale. I plan to watch it a second time it was that good and share it with my friends and family.

Mr. White so very well done with your perfect portrayal when the weight of the world, all in a matter of just a few minutes, is dropped on the shoulders of a gentle peaceful man having to face something none of us would ever want to. It boils down to him realizing either within the conversation or within moments of “the stranger’s” departure that it’s either himself or the man across the table that’s soon going to suffer a very unpleasant death. He’s about to discover what kind of man he. Kill or be killed ?

A powerful, unfolding work in such a short period of time. I, too, wondered how the brother knew that Colin was Irish. When George revealed his sister's suicide, I think Colin realized his role in it at the same time I did. Wonderful storytelling, pacing and acting job by the actor playing Colin. Thank you. Richard
