One of the cutest, most uplifting gay themed shorts I have seen in a while.
Finally a good damn movie that didn’t end of some gay tragedy. Thank you
I liked this film. Short and sweet. Enough background sketched in to make it understandable. Nicely done all round. Thanks.
Very nice. A short film with an actual story. A beginning, a middle, an end. Fully formed characters
Sweet short with a positive ending. We need more of that.
I got over my fear of the water about 15 years ago. My fear of dating? Not so much. LOL
😂
Beautiful film. They look beautiful together, inside and out.
Wow! Horace is very handsome, I sure as hell wouldn't turn him down.
Really beautiful and positive. Subtle and just beautiful.
I love Horace! He’s so sensitive and sweet, not to mention incredibly hot!
Yes he is
oh my! wish he was in more gay movies. He's beautiful...and sweet.
Sweet, short and positive. Really enjoyed it.
Yes indeed
This was interesting still not sure about getting to know someone over Apps but this was very uplifting thanks to the writers actors & the creators thought process this was really good thank you for this post
Who would do that to someone and then that someone be ok with it? No, that's not how you treat people who tell you they have an issue with something, that was abusive.
In most situations your concern is 100% justified. It would NOT be recommended practice. But perhaps he was seized by a greater instinct - greater than the normal excepted protocols - to help shake Horace out his fearful frozen state. And perhaps this instinct was motivated by a love greater than his normal well-controlled persona. He is a fictional character, but in my life I’ve had people who took the risk to confront me to “jump in” despite my fear and they changed my life forever.
Amazing ! Really touching.
The Black guy is handsome
Black guys are romatic dear
And the white one too 😏
Yes he is ❤❤❤
Excellent Film!
Great Storyline, writing and acting!
Love From Orlando
Really good short - well written, outstanding acting and chemistry between the leads ; and a very sweet, simple , uplifting message. Consider me your newest subscriber. Well done !
I love it !!! ❤️ This is what I want to see not the sad endings. Life is already hard for everyone. When I look at movies I want my mind off of reality I want to imagine happiness forever , greatness forever , no death, no sickness because once that good movie ends… boom REALITY 😔 and I don’t want no movie to remind me of the cruel world we live in.
I still prefer the way Italians, Mexicans, Argentine, French, even Israeli make a Gay film. The likes of Tremulo, Eyes wide open, etc.
This was nice. A feel good short film.
great writing and acting
...I enjoyed this film a lot. Thanks, Nathan.
So did I Randall
wowow! that was sooooo good ! thank you!
Nahhhhh, Steve is fucked up for pulling Horace into the pool like that. Targeting one of his biggest fears and then immediately forcing him to FACE that fear head on and then asking “aRe YoU oKaY???”
such a captivating, cool, calm and collected love story. . . absolutely refreshing😘😘😘😘😘
Great Short Film. Very touching and effective!
I agree with you Black Knight
this film brought a tear to me ... in a good way .....
Beautiful and kinda adorable film. Very pleasant.
Beautiful piece of work.
Nonono that is not what you do to a person you don't even know who tells you they have a phobia. Cute concept but if someone did that to me I would never speak to them again lol
I agree. I may forgive them after a while, but that was an awful thing to do to someone. Stupid.
It really pissed me off. I have no idea why they thought adding that part was necessary…
I loved it. Sweet.
Oh, I loved this.
That was sweet and powerful.

Lindo filme. Eu sou um eterno romântico. Acredito no AMOR e estou em busca da minha história de amor. Carlos Drummond de Andrade dizia: Quem passou pela vida e não amou, não viveu.
Omg so beautiful 🥰🥰🥰
Que guapo está el afroamericano. Quiero un hombre así 😍
José Serrano tenemos el mismo gusto. y deseamos lo mismo
Wow. A beautiful young man; a longing to connect; reaching out; facing a fear unchosen, then choosing to face another, reaching farther.
What first caught my eye Then caught my heart before I knew it, with surprising intimacy.
We are suddenly deep into the ocean of fundamental human longing.
The effective use of outside/inside cuts of POV, and wordless moments for us to fill in.
Thanks for a fine piece of work. I am eager to see your next effort. I subscribed.
Nick, a good deep analysis of the film
very nice short film congrat
They're so gorgeous and cuties attractive 🤗😘
Très romantique...
Sweet but one should never go in the water right after eating. Wait at least 30 minutes. lol
i never knew that wht will happen if i go there while eat
The main character is very handsome
Grest title for rhis: 'UNTIL NOW".
I almost swiped "thumb's down and moved on,then I read part of Carlos ERW's comment and realized T have not much at all especially in the decade and never an online one do I have a phobia & just scan then "next"? My brain has been on hold and pay attention,hm
Good stories love gay nice

Another day, another reminder that I'm still single and nobody wants me
Cute

Harrison Grant, you are really handsome.
Sweet
But they don't like us...
Good
More like these.
Is he the guy from 911 Lonestar? TK's ex boyfriend...
yes
I thought I'd seen him before in something
The white guy looks like Jake Gyllenhaal
Hi, where can I go to follow you?
Love is real, 🍓
Yes Richard
Cool... 😀💕💐
Love from India 🥰😍🥀🥰
Hi
It would be nice if they smiled more and be a bit more relaxed with each other
maybe part of the point is that they weren't.

I see this in my CZcams suggestions. I personally didn't like this short film's way of accepting a part of oneself. It's too idealistic while connecting two distinct situations for the character. And the characters are strangers to each other so I find it over-the-top that the character would allow and accept that behavior. 25dec22
i dont get it
I couldn’t finish…. Too boring
