Talk about a useless criticism. Better how, smart guy? Your comment could be “better.” I thought this was a brilliant resolution to the protagonists conflict. Indeed the film fired on all cylinders, from the form to the characters arc. Short films are not structured in the same way longer form stories are. They typically begin with immediate conflict and end on a “rug pull” moment. This film follows the “tragedy” model of storytelling to a tee. But because it’s a short the arc isn’t a fully realized, which, as I explained, is in keeping with the short form.
This is brilliantly executed.
Kindly share if you have a second. 🙏
Meh...needed better resolution/ending
