I’m lost in words… Storytelling is on another level. This is what films should be, inspire and evoke the human inside us. At the end of the day, filmmaking is a tool or platform to inspire one another and this place a better place.

[@Whoitnow]

Dude, this is sooo good! I’m inspired by your growth as a filmmaker..🧑🏾‍💻

[@charming_and_granite]

A very personal story. Thank you for sharing! Love the shots and the lighting. Love the colors and how it felt like we were in a moment exploring it all with him. A great piece, Brady.

[@JordanHile]

Absolutely stunning work and beautiful words ❤️ thank you for sharing such a treasured memory

[@TRIOStories]

Beautiful film and such a beautiful, heartfelt story. As usual, you absolutely smashed the lighting and the colour grade is amazing. In particular we were blown away by how powerful the shots were with the close ups, around 4:19 and how much they complimented the message and together with the sound - really heightened the emotions ❤️

[@eleventhvision]

This is Art , amazing. Thanks for the Inspo. I lost my father at a young age and could see myself making a short story like this for him. Very well done. Subbed.

[@leedonohue]

Brady.. this is absolutely beautiful.. I lost my Mom a few months ago, she was my best friend and the only person that truly ever understood me because we are one and the same. I felt this film on a totally different level. Thank you so much for this. You are an amazing filmmaker and human being!!!

[@BradyBessette]

Lee thank you so much for this, I appreciate all of your endless support. I am so sorry for your loss 🖤🫶🏼

[@runningintohistory]

Sorry Lee. I lost my Mom last month also. She was my best friend. Haven't had the inspiration to create since but hopefully it will return.

Wow man so good! I lost my Mom 5 weeks ago and have been trying to write a short story to produce like this. Thanks for the inspiration. Hopefully I get mine back and can pull it off.

[@AxelKozber]

I found this looking to see what kind of narrative shorts people have been making with my camera (FX6) and wow! Incredible work. Beautiful frames, lighting, colors, subtle and emotional camera moves, beautiful use of Bokeh and colors when close up on the projector, moving story, effective acting. Incredible work, keep going!

[@WarmVoice]

Simply incredible, beautiful work.
Your talent is shining Brady.

[@BradyBessette]

Thank you so so so much

[@KevinvanDiest]

Brady ....my man. Seriously good job. Inspiring work, just pure cinematography ...no fancy stuff. Finally I got to see the final result after seeing the BTS this last period. You should be proud man, good film. Also the grandson acted very good, which is quite important right.

[@BradyBessette]

Kevin thank you so much. It was a really fun project to work on and I’m glad I could share it. The actor was a close friend on mine and the family, and he doesn’t actually act much! He’s great

Beautiful visuals. I would say it's a visual letter. The story isn't quite there, but you could recut it (and add a couple of scenes) to get it there. Most of the VO would be unnecessary as well.
