[@Foodie_888]

Noe Cañete Thanks for confirming! Stay safe!

[@cemeterydawn]

Constructive criticism: It was really beautifully-filmed (reminded me of Her) but there wasn't much chemistry between the two actresses, possibly because the dialogue was a little contrived and cliche, and it didn't make sense for Riley to run after Sam and then kiss her.

[@Undeaddreamer01]

C D at least run after her makes sense, she’s trying to be wanted and prove that she’s not stuck up and boring.... at least maybe a little bit

[@soapylather1]

yesss i was trying to remember what the visuals reminded me of!! definite Her vibes

[@BUKCOLLECTOR]

Loved their relationship.

[@stevecheevers7337]

No one have a issue with her having a boyfriend at home and she's actually cheating on him. I don't know kind of made me like the character less. Plays into bisexual stereotype of them just going around sleeping with both sexes and no sense of commitment.

[@floraldrivedreams7003]

This story is a delight. The script, the direction, the casting, the acting-everything is perfection.

[@arthousefilms]

That was an awesome film! The characters were so interesting. It was great tension between “classy” and “sassy” characters.. it was kind of confusing why it was set in the future, but regardless it was an awesome film due to the great characters!

If this had some sort of dark plot twist it feels like it could be a black mirror episode. This short film has fantastic quality, it looks like a lot of work has gone into it.

2:46 “Yes ma’am” Sam: “Sam”👉🏼🙋🏼‍♀️👈🏼 😂😂

[@stephenrobinson52]

I kept waiting for Riley to murder Sam. Great job guys!

[@thisisaspoon]

Awe shucks. That’s in the feature version.

[@annabethchase2569]

After watching this, I went back and watched 'I love you so much, it's killing them' Now I can't see that actress in any other way. Although, one thing came up short for me in this short film - when Sam takes Riley to the abandoned area with the graffiti, it felt like there was a disconnect between what they talked about and the kiss that came afterwards. I didn't find it believable, especially for Riley to make the move. Perhaps if they had seemed a little more drunk, I'd have believed that 1) Alcohol may have played a part. 2) They had talked a lot more at the bar. (You also could've made one or two more scenes of them talking about something random for this) It just felt too sudden. (And yes, Riley had some ridiculous chemistry with her boss, to the point that I can say that 'I ship it!' just from that tiny interaction) No complaints otherwise (Bar the badly green-screened display of the phone). Production is through the roof, comparable to shows on Netflix. Actresses are really good. Futuristic effects are amazing. Music is amazing. I honestly wouldn't believe you if you said this doesn't have the budget of a full fledged Netflix series or a movie.

[@thisisaspoon]

Awe thanks. We wanted to do so much more but for our grant we had to make it 10 minutes so we really had to cut the date down.

[@annabethchase2569]

Unfortunate circumstances, hopefully that won't be a recurring thing. Eagerly waiting for the next one. :)

[@jouljoker9684]

First question. Where can you get those phones? I know they are not real but I need to know!

[@thisisaspoon]

I think they were idea picture frames.

Thank you! We wanted to make it longer but we were contractually obligated to deliver and shoot a 10 minute short (from our funder). We would have shot a 20 minute short if left to our own devices. But check out some of the other awesome shorts we've done on this KZbin channel!

[@emmanolan9278]

please make this a feature film that was beautiful to watch

[@NiaNamora]

My take is this was just a teaser of the story and for you to place it in however you want to later. I think in a way, the app put them together because they are exactly what the other needs and helps to make them better people. That said, I think this story didn't do a good job setting up a how they got from "wow, this isn't working" to "Let me chase after you and then kiss you later." That part wasn't a smooth transition but with more time to show that growth, I can see this being a huge hit.

[@thatonekid4688]

This was well done The plot kinda sucked tho

[@thisisaspoon]

We were more going for a slice of life style plot like Before Sunrise. I’m sorry it didn’t work for you.

[@thatonekid4688]

It was too intense for slice of life I felt more chemistry between Riley and her boss Thank you for replying The futuristic world was cool

[@thatonekid4688]

Question Is this it or is it a trailer of sorts?

[@thisisaspoon]

Proof of concept for a potential bigger project.

[@angerock49]

@@thisisaspoon I think for a bigger project if you're going with the perfect match concept it would be nice to work on the problems like: a person being your match doesn't make them a good partner or a good person. What really makes a match? Does everyone have one? What about jerks? How will the characters make it work if they have such obvious differences in values like these two did? (differing values are one of the toughest things to get over imo, more than habits or way of life) I had trouble connecting with the characters here because of the short format that maybe didn't allow for those plot points. It felt like what should be a longer story was simplified and that made me disconnect from the possibility of them falling in love. Too many "but what about.. " floating in mind. Keep working on it though it can start good stuff and I love it visually, looked professional! And even though the script was clumsy at time it was still cute.
