This was a product of a workshop at film school in my first semester, with a 5-student team and peanuts in funds. I recognize that the quality/caliber is low, but I am overwhelmed with gratitude for the love it has received on CZcams. Sending a big hug to each and every one of you. Ax

Trying to maintain a relationship with someone that is perpetually insecure can be really exhausting and untimately not worth the constant upset.
Agreed. I believe is not worth the effort to make it work. If there's trust in that relationship.🤷♂️
The muscle guy did not apologize...the skinny guy did....MAJOR RED FLAG
The muscle guy simply had lunch with someone. The insecure guy apologized because it was his insecurity that triggered the fight. He also took several cheap shots unprovoked. Your insecurity is your responsibility first and foremost because you communicate fear/concern without being a dick lol
Where is he 'skinny'? He has a very nice body. The other is way too much, looking like plastic
🤣
I enjoyed this film, my boy friend was the same way, he never did any cheating except being with his friends who thought je was better than sliced bread, it took a lot of patience and time, plus a big cup of communication that got us through it, I had to understand his past as he understood mine, we are two works in progress, love makes a lot of allowances 😊
Thank you, Alex. Tired of tragic gay stories. Yours is a poem. Once again, thank you.
hello , Mr wilson !
how are you doing ?
are you ok ?
All I have to say is: the guy would have been dancing by himself in the final scene because that's how I would have validated him.
When the person who has been hurt by another ends up being the one who says "I'm sorry". Problem not solved.
You got this right.
I mean the first guy apologised for being too sensitive; but what about the other guy? Shouldn't he apologise for being inconsiderate, irrational, and for hurting his boyfriend??! In fact he's the one who should initiate.
I couldn't agree more. It is almost like you are just being a martyr to save the relationship
Amen
SMART GUY
THEY ARE DOOMED
I have really good friend who’s dating a guy he knew from college. As soon as he introduce him to me, I sensed a really negative vibe from him and I told my friend to be careful. That guy would do anything to get attention from men and talking about attention seeker whore. My friend could see that and he even saw messages on his phone flirting back and forth with other guys but still he couldn’t stop loving that jerk. I could say nothing and it killed me inside because I didnt want to see my friend getting hurt and most importantly, being treated like a muppet ☹️
Beautiful story, beautiful acting and beautiful choice of men for the main characters. And a happy ending as a cherry on the cake! Absolutely lovely :)
Imperfect people and unequal emotions ... Love can be a balancing act. But with time, patience and dedication, it can be the greatest story ever told. Like dancing to Debussy! This was delightful. ❤
No beginning, no ending.....just a moment! No morals, no judgment.....just perfection! Thank You! D
Can't go wrong with Claire de Lune playing in the background.
Nice, warm and familiar. I'll even watch it again.
Dan Thomas i love the gymnopedie part at the start
"I almost threw up you were so sexy".....I thought I was the only one who had ever felt like that :)
I love the Clair de lune at the end of this, the song just makes the moment so special
Beautifully done and so well acted, you could believe in the characters.
The best part :
“You’re kind of perfect”
“Oh stop”
“Continue”
Why do they close books without marking them in movies. It drives me nuts.
Me too!
I don’t bookmark too because I remember the page 🤭
Noel Piriz Like when people in movies hang up the phone without saying goodbye
Noel Piriz hello
@@RJ-jw3xz well, hello
It was soooooo cute! The way they get over their problems...I liked it
Thank you💖💖💖
*sobs* this was such a beautiful film, great actors and script ❤️❤️❤️
Love a happy ending in gay shorts. I feel like every gay film I watch is so sad lol
Except this wasnt a happy ending, this was a guy surrendering his principles and making feel guilty for calling on his partner's shit, that is manipulation at its finest.
Gymnopédie No.1 .. Janet Jackson spent most of her adult life trying to figure out what this melody was. I love it
At 3:35 I thought they were gonna do an Olympic gold worthy high beam routine.
🥈🏅🥉 second that
I spent 3 years with a man who enjoyed being admired by others for his perfect looks, and he wouldn't bother telling me why occasionally he was an hour or two late from work. It was always my problem that I couldn't trust him, he said. I thought I trusted him because when other couples would come over for dinner or drinks and occasionally suggest a 4 way or a switch, he would act genuinely horrified and try to get them to go home. Eventually my jealousy got the best of me because he never really tried to put me at ease. And so I ended it. Nowadays I look for not so perfect looking partners.
Beautiful story. 👏🏾 hope you find your prefect someone!
hi
This is probably the best comment I have ever seen in a video.
One could write and could certainly read volumes of work on being "too good looking". I have read that it was sometimes unfortunate to be beautiful at certain times in history. It could guarantee you were made into a sex slave which everyone knows has a limited lifespan.
You made the right decision. Those beautiful sluts out there will have a rude awakening when their beauty fades and they’re all alone.
BRAVO! Thank You! Every relationship at some point will be challenged. This depiction portrayed a "big" one. Such trust is all too easy to give; but very difficult to earn.
The uglier little brother of Jealousy is named Suspicion.
Love it.Very beautiful.I don't understand why this kind of love upsets people. If it's LOVE I don't think the LORD would mind because their is to much hate in this WORLD.
Haha i am the lord

I don’t think the lord is that bothered frankly. He has far more important things to worry about.
"I don't think the Lord would mind "
That hit me hard 👍🏾👍🏾
Nice film. Nice moment of honesty in their lives.
I LOVE Trevor LaPaglia!!!! So grateful for this movie short!!! Great movie!!!
Cute movie. Depending on what stage in life you are in, it will affect you differently and you'll see it differently.
I agree Andy
Great video! Congratulations! Wow, how much I can see myself in that story.
Enjoyed the film. No relationship is perfect but you have to understand whether or not it's a good fit for you even with all its imperfections.

YOU'RE TEARING ME APART NICK!
I really loved this. Good job.
Well done. Good story. Well acted with good production values.
Do we tell the truth when we are perched on a perilous ledge because the effort to stay balanced and fear of failing occupies our minds so much we can’t fabricate at the same time? The scene at the beach roughly halfway through Alex Lampsos’ short gay film is a kind of central pivot to the relationship between Nick and Charlie where truths that both men can agree on are aired in the open light of day. Charlie calls Nick “perfect”; Bryan calls Nick “princess”. Swirling somewhere around these divergent impressions of Nick, Charlie tries to navigate and negotiate their relationship. If “Thylacine” has a message, it would appear to be that couples should keep talking to each other and be prepared for a lot of accepting about each other.
Great point. The truth can be very scary. I think finding someone you can tell your truth to and not only have them accept your truth but more importantly, appreciate you for it, is the secret to having your perfect partner.
This movie is well done.
so in love with the music!
the music at the start is called gymnopedie
@@planttreesnotalices7261 And by Satie, not whoever was named.
The music is so much better than the "drama".
Very well done ! and the music, bravo
Charming! Really liked it!
The imperfections of others make one feel perfect!
Even when he's not playing the perfect boyfriend, Trevor Lapaglia ends up playing the perfect boyfriend. That's not typecasting, it's just a compliment.
PS: What's really exhausting is dating a jealous person who interrogates you about your day and your acquaintances. I'm not sure who's more insecure between the two characters. If you don't trust someone, don't date them. It's not rocket science. 😁
I'm glad they ended up together.
Loved it, relationships take work, even the bad ones:)
I was in a relationship like this....i was madly in love....but he played with me...he made me nuts. I finally left ...he was wrecking me.....he always acted independant.....since ive left him hes lost. I knew who he really was....more than he did. Sad part is i still think of him.....i refuse to think of him emotionally....only rational.
Hi guys
I love the whole movie, but I especially loved the ending, it was so cute. :-)
It really was
CreepyPasta1598 Hey Creepy, I just got through watching this movie again, the ending always puts me in a good mood, it always makes me feel like there is hope for me after all, yeah, yeah, I know that sounds so corny, but I'm just keeping it real. :-) Have a good evening and a good weekend. :-)
I love Trevor LaPaglia, he’s such a nice guy and his instagram is amazing 😍
With one partner continuously placing themselves in a potential emotional or sexually compromising scenario does not make a healthy relationship. Jealousy can be unjustified and unreasonable, but it can also be equally justified as it is in this case. Nick is a one-step-from-cheating partner, and it does not take much for that one step to happen...to much alcohol, a couple's argument, a wrong-place-at-the-wrong-time situation. Nick needs to stay away from guys who want his body; because eventually one will get it. I am so sick of hearing, "...i'm not perfect." yes, I get that. But that is not an excuse to justify stupid or bad behavior. A man who needs that kind of validation, can't be faithful to one guy.
Only intelligent remark here...
well said
This was a boring waste of time
True
Boa tarde gostaria que você me enviou o comprovante para o meu iPhone início da mensagem encaminhada de abril a dezembro para obras da prefeitura e não
That was a pleasure to watch. Thank you.
Beautiful movie very moving and very real issue for gay guys today...enjoyed it.
Very nice film! Keep them coming!
Another short film that leaves you wanting more. Make it a long feature film :)
what a sweet short movie
What an amazing ending xxx
I have lived this with a boyfriend needless to say we are not together now...I was not insecure nor did I not trust him, however when he acted out with me seeing ..I felt disrespected and somehow not enough, we discussed nothing changed ..I felt myself changing not to my liking so I got out of there with head held high.😁✌
Your self respect mattered to you because your ex didn't respect or care about you nor himself. But having the courage to walk away and not be taken in by him speaks volumes about who you are and what you expect from others. I hope you do find the "right" one that you want.....
You should be proud of yourself . A decision well made. Also yes shows you're a strong, insightful person.
I agree when you give in to people who don't respect you, you start changing into something you hate.
I've been there too a few months ago. Happily single now 😁
Very good film and extremely cute actors.
What a great short
This is kinda perfect ❤
Beautiful !
Beautiful!!
That's so sweet love story, but not for this real world... Amo il concetto e la storia 🤩✌🏻
Beautiful! Thanks people! Yeah!!
Loved it. Thanks so much
This was a great story. I love it but also love the hot guys.❤ I think they made a cute adorable couple.😊
top 5 fave short films!
"Les gymnopédies" were composed by Eric Satie and the full title of Debussy is "Sonate au clair de lune"
I Love The Musical Score.
Nicely done film. Relationships can be so exhausting. In my first relationship I was with a control freak, so glad it ended, even though it was difficult to end. And its true, why do so many gay men seem to have had difficult relationships with their fathers (out or not).
Uh, sorry to tell you, but your music credit is either wrong or incomplete -- the music at the start of this film is the "Gymnopedie No. 1" by Erik Satie.
Lol I thought I was the only one that noticed that.
but it does finish with the Debussy.
Don't be so negative. Enjoy life for what it is.
Wow! I remember being trapped by jealousy. It told me that I was not ready for a relationship. I was so effing insecure. I spent almost a decade with a creep who made little effort to eradicate my jealousy.
wait,what? did you ever overcome jealousy? my bf is a great person, he ain't perfect but he tries hard, but sometimes I just can't get over this jealousy
No, cannot say that I have. But isn’t it a two-way street? If you love someone, shouldn’t you be committed to insuring your partner feel secure?
nice movie!
Beautiful.
I saw myself to the guy. Im very sensitive but not being selfish, i just dont want my guy intertaining another guy because i felt jealous. But in the end i leave him because i dont want to be sensitive forever. And just dont want to hurt my feelings again and again.
Great short movies, hope they will make it full movie. Happy ending
That was really good.
Love it😭❤
Sweet movie
Every now and then I come across this video and watch it again... Trevor is such a hottie and Peter is cute too... Well written well acted sweet little video ...it would make a great movie if the scene at the end was the end of the movie ( happy )
Awwww 😍 relationship goal
This was a really well put together film, and was quite charming. I loved the music as well.
However, throughout most of it I was hoping they'd break up so that Charlie and Bryan could get together lol.
I agree.....these two are doomed.....charlie is perfect
❤❤❤beautiful film buh where do people find love😢
So..cozy....I like it.
Charlie is beautifully authentic.
These kind of scenarios are unrealistic for at least the 90% of us.
Young masculine studs in perfect bodies, gorgeous faces , perfect teeth, with the freshest breaths, most luminous eyes and the perfect hairy distribution on their hot bodies, beautiful houses, never talking about how to pay the mortgage, never facing a bad day at the office, only high standard incredible life.
Ok. I know those kind of guys exist and I love watching these kind of movies too because I need to escape from everyday life’s routine, but that’s all.
" I almost threw up that's how sexy you were ". Is that an insult or a compliment, lol. 🤣🤣🤣
For a change,,, nice ending !!!
Great short film.
I'm gonna give this a like simply because of Satie and Debussy...and everything else are top notch.
Delightful.
Gay films never choose average looking people it gives me a complex lol
SOOOO TRUE!!!!! Also, all the gay CZcamsrs are all hot white guys, and every thumbnail is purposefully as sexy as possible. Literally, the title of the video can be "When my parents abused me" and the thumbnail is a ripped white guy with his shirt off sitting in his bed. Like Gay content is pretty retrogressive.
Muscle, white guys, 20’s early 30’s. Hopefuly we’ll see more diversity in the future cause we re stuck in the past.
I get what you mean. It's like the baldbess thing - i went bald in my 20s, films and tv media by and large don't employ bald 20 somethings, so I don't see anyone I relate to (based on that one identity value).
Art vs Money. You make more money with stereotypically pretty people. Plus, do the non standard types not become actors as much, disheartened by the lack of representation? It's like to be the change we wish to see, we need to act (metaphorically and literally), however change takes time... decades, so those non standard actors on the front lines might have no career, paving the way for younger non standard actors to take their places.
Good gravy i am a cynical bugger lol
Wholly excellent.
Nice work...
Always beautiful story. I like it. I'm gay also.
CLASSICAL PIANISTS WHERE U AT...its over played but its still my favorite piece
my piano exam piece is the background music at the start (gymnopedie)
1:00 I love that song!
I WISH I had this kind of mutual love in my own relationship.....
Love only happens in movies. Or I'm just not looking in the right place. But when I keep getting hurt,I don't want to play the game anymore.
What does the title have to do with the movie?
Trevor LaPagia ( Nick ) is the hot guy in Steve Grand's music video "All I Want For Christmas" .. I think they were boyfriends at one time... That was well done .. The eye candy was nice 😊
Sweet. Oh I'd love to be in their situation.
So sweet.
Nobody’s perfect ;) I can’t change if you think you are, but perfection does not exist, accept it 😜
My story was sadly similar. I met a guy once and we were both instantly smitten. We not only had a lot in common, but he was awesome in bed.
Being psychic, something told me to be careful (that he was hiv positive) so I was.
I eventually became wise to the other guys he was having sex with, but he swore to me he wasn’t.
Then one day, when he came home, he kissed me with cock breath. I was so disgusted 🤢 because he didn’t even have the decency or intelligence and respect to clean up before kissing me. That was the end of our (about 9 month long) relationship.
It wasn’t so much about him cheating on me that bothered me as much as it was about him being a sex addict and not coming clean about his hiv status until after we moved in together.
I never stopped being his friend, but his sex addiction was real and I don’t think he ever got over it.
