Wow ok I am genuinely shocked by how many views this has already gotten. So to clarify, this is indeed a short film made by myself and an extremely small group who made 6 shorts over a period of 10 days. My name is Sonny Martin, and I’m the guy with the curly hair and black shirt :). I work at a theatre summer camp and a few of the counselors stayed behind to work on this small project we called ‘Real Reels’. I originally only posted this to have a link for auditions, but it seems to have gotten more attention than intended. Thank you everyone for the kind words and i will definitely add some more info when I get the chance!
Hi Sonny. I'm surprised that you are surprised. When you title it an LGBTQ+ Short Film, you get views. Loads of UA-cam viewers are gay or are interested in gay youth experiences. This was a really cute film. Congrats!
That was just about the most natural unaffected kiss two people could possibly make with a camera in your face ! Nice development buildup to a moment that didn’t try to fake cliched embarrassment. It was just two people at ease in a moment.
I was delighted that the 2 boys weren't embarassed or uncomfortable after they kissed. They seemed pleased with themselves and with each other, as they should be.
@PrivilegedCriticism there are many situations where 2 boys kissing could result in embarrassment or discomfort. As I said, it was nice that these boys were so comfortable with their surroundings/friends and with each other.
That was me in college with my roommate, 55 years ago....ha. Had the shakes so bad, then I made the move, and it went all through college. Good times. Gotta go for it, or one looses so many chances. Made a move to a college freshman, when I was 40..... Here it is 30 years later with 2 wonderful grown children, and the most wonderful 48 year old now. Our lives have been fabulous. YOU just have to live YOUR life. Good luck to all.
With that dark curly hair, handsome face, beautiful lips, and that gorgeous smile, you look like you just stepped out of a painting from the Italian Renaissance! I hope that you produce more films soon....
This is terrific, great job guys. I'm an older gay man and it's great to see so much LGBTQI+ content on UA-cam these days. You've made a really heartfelt and natural short film here and you deserve all the attention you're getting. Well done!
This was really well done, I was checking to see if it was a short preview of something more. You are very talented! Have you posted any of your other work?
This is a great little film! I watched it 3 times and the depth and complexity of emotions conveyed by minimal facial expression is outstanding! Beautiful work!
This is soooo cute and adorable It reminds me of discovering who I was in college and that whoa moment the first time you kiss someone of the same sex. Like a huge spark and you’re like Oh okay so I am queer lmao
Very well done. Totally enjoyed it. I liked the girl's offscreen voice comment, great kind of "pivotal" moment. Wish it was a just a little bit longer, it's so good.
This was such a sweet story. So believable, so natural and authentic. It's one of the worst feelings imaginable wanting to kiss a member of the same sex but not knowing how they will react or even if they feel the same way. I think this film captured it so well
I'm not gay but I also don't have anything against any sexual attitude or preference. Who am I to judge anyone for what they willingly do with one another. I don't think anyone has the right to judge anyone else when it comes to any sexual preference of any kind ever no matter what!!!!! Good luck to everyone on God's green earth!!!!!
Bellissimo cortometraggio, ben recitato e ben girato. Grazie per avermi fatto capire che le cose più semplici e fatte naturalmente sono le più belle.Un carissimo saluto dall'Italia!!!!!
On their sleepover after their high school graduation, the two, cute lads kiss for the first time It's the last chance for them to increase their mental, emotional, physical and sexual intimacy before going to college to build stronger bonds between them for life. A viewer must imagine how far they go. One scenario is that they escalate their intimacy rapidly, go all the way, satisfy their natural needs and desires, and relieve their urges and tension. Sequel. Series. Life usually doesn't give second chances. Boy love has its privileges. Excellent video that resonates with lads who have experienced similar situations. :- )
Very sweet. In 1976 I would have been the nervous boy with the chocolate. But sadly no hot curly headed friend leaned in to share the taste. This film is very sweet. Keep making them.
Man, I really miss having someone to kiss... Not really a relationship-crazy (romantic or physical) kind of person, but small things like kissing and intimacy are just nice things I wish I can have now and then
This is very well done, realistic and sweet (without being saccharin). One question: Why is there someone on the couch next to them? 1:46 For the same reason they're on the floor? Apparently, it's a sleepover. Their conversation doesn't wake the girl(?) on the couch, and her presence doesn't inhibit them. The "party lights" on the wall are a nice touch, especially as a backdrop to their kiss.
Please, remember and reaffirm being bisexual is absolutely alright. Being bisexual is beautiful. There is NOTHING wrong with you being bisexual that you should feel ashamed and afraid of. If your mom is homophobic, then it may be best to not come out to them, so you can remain most crucially safe and sound. However, if you know she is not, then go for it! Nevertheless, establish a good LGBTQ+/LGBTQ+-friendly group to support you, whether that is family; friends; teachers; anybody LGBTQ+ you know;etcetera. You deserve to be accepted and embraced for being bisexual, don't let anyone so wrongly deceive you otherwise💓🏳️🌈.
This mak mes me feel so single bro cuz like I have a crush and my crush likes me back and like we've dated before but my mom won't let us date and we're like in love with each other and we just gotta stay friends so I sad😭

I hope u go big man godbless
wait what??? that was some good quality tho..i thought it were from some good and big production house..impressed!
You could totally make a long movie!!! This was absolutely brilliant, man! 😍😍😍
Loved it! Keep ‘em coming.

Was a very sweet short film. Both of u were innocently cute .
I was delighted that the 2 boys weren't embarassed or uncomfortable after they kissed. They seemed pleased with themselves and with each other, as they should be.
@@joyceomeara9719 after all two boys kissing has never been an embarrassing . A natural momentum with a grace is what makes those moves precious.
@PrivilegedCriticism there are many situations where 2 boys kissing could result in embarrassment or discomfort. As I said, it was nice that these boys were so comfortable with their surroundings/friends and with each other.
May I know the names of two boys please 😹

you were 40… and the other person was 18… ? im genuinely confused
My bf is 25 years younger than me. What about that? Hehehe
@@Jonas-ti7kq literally im like what? u were 40 and he was fresh out of highschool?? explain yourself lmaoo
how old are you and him?
@@richards4035 im not the pedo.. im just confused that there was such an age gap 😭😭
The gay panic in their eyes just before the kiss just warms my heart 🥺🥰
there was no gay panic.
Genuine actors, realism conveyed throughout the scene. Easily the best & most relatable I’ve seen
With that dark curly hair, handsome face, beautiful lips, and that gorgeous smile, you look like you just stepped out of a painting from the Italian Renaissance! I hope that you produce more films soon....

this easily could be the trailer from a full movie, really nice work!
How cute both boys are!! And the scene is so tender and lovely 😍😍

Oh my garsh! Sooooo cute! You could feel their vulnerability and tentativeness. Loved it!
Wait, who the hell is sleeping on the couch behind them? Lol
Cheryl.. lol ☺
@@sulianat3083 -- But Cheryl's in the corner! Is the couch in the corner? 😁
No joke this is SO similar to how me and my gf started dating
This is so cute you guys did an incredible job :)
Shocks, they were great actors. 😍
This is soooo cute and adorable
It reminds me of discovering who I was in college and that whoa moment the first time you kiss someone of the same sex. Like a huge spark and you’re like
Oh okay so I am queer lmao
ong
Guy:well now you can kiss anyone that you want
Me:*lowers my glasses a little* was that an invitation I just heared ö
Congratulations!! I really enjoyed this short, I just wished it were longer. Please keep making films 🙌♥️♥️

I truly wish this film short would get a feature independent film or a Netflix series you two have great on screen chemistry
The acting, direction, editing, camera work and overall production is of very high quality, really super!

Omg i need continuing!!! This is SO good, the emotions are SO real!!!😍😍😍 Such a wholesome short movie!💖

Aww that's so sweet, I really loved the acting.
I liked the use of the camera position to change the vibe of some moments
This video is so poetic on so many levels.
Why tf am I Cheryl, the little eavesdropper. "I heard that." XD.

Ah you gotta love that gay panic 😅
The only downside to this film is that there isn’t more to see. 😉
uh
Very sweet. In 1976 I would have been the nervous boy with the chocolate. But sadly no hot curly headed friend leaned in to share the taste. This film is very sweet. Keep making them.
That was actually very sweet
Boom 😘
I really enjoyed it..
it's too short.. I wanted to see more but this is enough. ❤️😘
I said the same
This clip is short bt sweet enough
276,025 views. Not bad Sonny Martin. Not bad at all. I liked the short story. Hope you enjoyed making it.
That was very realistic and the fear/tension was palpable. It took me back to my first kiss w a guy.
“I’m pretty sure that that counts” ❤️😭

Lovely film, well done all involved.
Sure it should count
I hope this will be turn into a feature film someday. It was amazing!!!

This needs to be longer. Great film

Seriously! I need that name lol
They're both very cute indeed.
Awww this is so sweet!
The acting is SO good.
I'm pretty sure Cheryl saw that kiss
amazing for the low budget quality since this film only took place in the bedroom. it's still well made.
Man, I really miss having someone to kiss... Not really a relationship-crazy (romantic or physical) kind of person, but small things like kissing and intimacy are just nice things I wish I can have now and then
Nice job you guys made it look natural yet innocent
Credits? I found nothing on IMDb.
