- A pizza man delivers to the wrong guy at the right time.
POPEYE THE PIZZA MAN is used with permission from Justin Robinson. Learn more at justinrobinsonfilm.com.
A pizza delivery man with a poor sense of direction toils at his dysfunctional workplace, dealing with offbeat co-workers and a temperamental boss. In the middle of it, he makes a delivery to a wrong address -- and what he finds there compels him to stay, even if it costs him his job.
Writer-director Justin Robinson has crafted a uniquely touching blend of deadpan comedy with openhearted drama, full of memorable characters struggling with the undertow of sadness, grief and inadequacy, in a world that often doesn't look hospitably on authentic emotional experience and expression.
The film takes time to create and develop its eccentric rhythms, building its careworn yet colorful world through details as careful as the working-class costumes, affectionately overstuffed sets and even the bumper stickers on cars.
The cinematography has a warmth and a brightness to it, and the framing and shots -- which may initially remind viewers of American indie classes like BOTTLE ROCKET or NAPOLEON DYNAMITE -- emphasize the offbeat world these characters. The wonderfully unique dialogue and performances add to this atmosphere of Americana-gone-wild, capturing both the quirkiness of the characters and their unique ways of expressing themselves.
But though their world may seem initially playful and even whimsical, it becomes clear as we get to know them that they are struggling in many ways. They are struggling to connect, to be heard and seen, and even to find a reason to stay alive. Despair and emotional pain isn't that far from the surface, and deft performances straddle the line between the mix of deadpan humor and genuine pathos that characterizes the film.
POPEYE THE PIZZA MAN is ultimately about the importance of reaching out to one another, despite dealing with our own issues and struggles. Its ultimate handling of suicide as its subject matter may seem roundabout, but as the result of its careful buildup, it is also done with authentic emotion and heartfelt respect. Short films about suicide can often struggle with the weightiness of the subject with the compressed time frame, but this film earns its audience's intimacy with its characters and their emotional journeys. The result is a warmly compassionate postcard from small-town America about what it means to be "there" for someone, woven together with great skill, humor, and sincerity. - Фільми й анімація
You've got to keep holding up that umbrella for people, cause you never know who you might save..
Oh,yeah that's an amazing ,beautifull and positive way of viewing the world!!😇😀I'm going to try to remember that in life now.I can tell your an AWESOME PERSON!! GJTHANKS FOR THE NEW WAY OF LOOKING AT LIFE
@@heavenly5644 Thank you :D All the best :)
@Monty Baker Maybe not, just maybe.
Monty Baker but then somebody holds the umbrella for you and you are healed. Maybe a scar is left but healing takes place
it's awesome to encourage one another to smile off her a hug. We live in some dark cold and trouble times. Jesus Christ is the way of salvation. Call out to Jesus Christ if you're hurting feeling low need a way out Jesus Christ has a 1 step program to Freedom
This isnt comedy, it's just a good film
thanks for sticking with it.
They keep mislabeling films because comedy is really hard to come by. I should go watch Airplane or something.
@@justinrobinson1008 That was great. I actually loved it.. I have an Omeleto addiction but your film is the first to give me goosebumps.
Justin Robinson bro this was incredible!
Well I wonder why I laughed
This project will always be close to my heart, was honored and privileged to get to work under Justin's direction.
You truly are a gentleman extraordinaire mate. Great work!
You were excellent in it mate.
Well done
Great job, brother!!
Good and honest character. did well portraying that. (for some reason you remind me of the guy from Pineapple express :D)
"I feel like Noah. But all the animals are dead." Damn that's a helluva quotable
Quite a quotable film.
yeah.... hahahhhhhahaahahahha
Justin if you’re reading this, push through with this. You have talent.
Oh and the acting is better than 90% of the crap on netflix.
thanks for watching it. i appreciate that.
I don’t bother with Netflix.
@@justinrobinson1008 This is a really beautiful story, Justin. You should be proud of yourself as I am of you!
@@godparticle2770 thank you!
@Justin Robinson That was a really good story. I love the art of storytelling especially when everything isn't spelled out explicitly. It engages the audience so much more when it's planned and executed well. Nice job on the callbacks too. Seems to me that we share some of the same filmmaking influences. I can see this playing in a festival alongside someone like Wes Anderson or Noah Baumbach. Long comment short: I don't usually comment on UA-cam in general but this was well deserved. Honestly one of my absolute favorites on Omeleto. Keep going. There's greatness in there.
The depression in face when his friend is describing the suicide is heart breaking. Thank God for the plot twist.
Hey, 2 years later! did you see the scar on his neck?
"I guess i'm just tired of people trying to kill themselves."
Suicide is not a way out it's a cop-out it's a pack of cowards.
looking unto Jesus Christ. Look at with Jesus went through just from the human perspective look at how he was treated. He was kind to people he loved people be healed and blessed.
Look at how they plotted against him.
he didn't choose to take his own life know he knew that the plan was to go through suffering and death to rise again to give you life and life more abundantly. So that you can call out to his name and get power in your life to be saved
@@livefree316 Christianity is about thought control, it's not a cure, that's an evangelical fallacy.
@@livefree316 If Jesus is keeping you strong, good on ya. Honestly, unless you have ever had thoughts of suicide or know someone who has, you are in the dark my friend. Depression isn't painful sacrifice, that's why people cut themselves. They do it just to feel something. Anything to destract them from the sadness they face in life. Life is here for everyone, sometimes it just takes a pizza delivery guy to make you snap out of it. Suicidal people are not cowards, they are soldiers in a war they shouldn't be fighting for. It's up to us to help them realize that. Throwing around words like God, Jesus and religion aren't going to help. Even if Christianity is the one true religion.
Roman Kirk when you say Christianity is the one true religion, is that your opinion or have I misinterpreted what you said?

Matthew 7
1
"Do not judge, or you too will be judged.
2
For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.
I have to say, I actually passed this by a few times, and now I am happy that I didn't pass it up again. I am an old lady, and been through a lot in my life. I have a few suicides in my family and it is always so very tragic. I was a Police Officer for my career, and I have been to more than one of these. It breaks my heart to see the family of the victim as they all try desperately to find the answers to why this person took their own life. I have talked to a few suicidal people, thinking maybe I could help, and in a few cases I think I did. Everyone has their own reasons, but it is always the same for the family members left behind. If you are thinking about this way out, please think about your family because they will feel the pain of your death for the rest of their life and trust me, that is the hardest life to live. Who ever did this video should take a bow, it was well written, well acted and it brought tears to the eyes of this old woman.
Hi Elizabeth, I felt like replying to you. Your words are heartfelt and really lovely. I have also lost a few people along the way, both to suicide and natural causes. As you pointed out, it really does affect the ones left behind. It's the kind of wounds that leave scars that never heal, just fester.
We try to spread love and not hate, what more can we do I wonder. Oh I suppose there's always more we could do, where's the line ? Angels walk among us they say, you seem like you're one of them. Take care lovely lady.
That’s the first thing I tell people who are suicidal. Think of the devastation you will cause in someone else’s life. My father killed himself when I was 12 years old. I’m 63 years old now and his choice still ripples through my life. You are so right Elizabeth. So right. I know you helped people.
Elizabeth Gaspodnetich we can never know the depth of despair of someone who commits suicide. I have had four in my family. I also am an old lady. I have heard so much judgment but none of us mere mortals have the right to judge another.We are not inside their heads.We cannot know the depth of their suffering.
Hi, I wrote and directed this film. Thank you for watching the film. Really appreciate you taking the time to watch it and write this comment. Powerful. All love to you.
@@gilgamesh7055 I'm so very sorry to hear this. You deserve the best in life. I sincerely hope you have peace and joy in your life. I care.
Who else watched a second time just to hear "Racism Sucks" again?
Maybe you should move to "the hood". Blacks there whine about "racism" from cradle to grave.
Easily weakest part and made me almost turn the whole thing off, but I figured I'd give this film still a chance since it had a funny intro with the close-up of the guys mouth making weird noises.
To be fair, I pretty much thought it to be an elaborate joke, though. I mean... Deaf, Black guy? Can you even 1up that with more minority points?
Afro-American millenials loves bitching about racism all the time when its unnecessary.
Sonny Delight what “hood “ have you been too because that’s absolutely not the case
@@sonnydelight5737 Classic Seppo. You septics just trash up every place on the internet.
“The only exception we are is the one we let ourselves be.” Brilliant quote.
A very quotable movie.
I had to pause the video and write that one down, too.
Thanks for that. I was trying to remember that one. It's how I see myself: perfectly ordinary, but I'm always me. And I'm OK with that.
I thought this was the most ridiculous short I had ever watched and it turned out to be one of the very best. Made me laugh, cry, laugh, and cry a better kind of cry. Jordan Crowder is beautiful.
So what's the timeline look like on that? Did you watch the whole thing thinking it was the most ridiculous and then afterwards upon closer reflection, you realised it was not? Or did you change your mind part way through, going from ridiculous-to-ridiculously-good in less like 20 minutes? How did that happen?
"they found him still breathing, flopping around like a fish out of water, it looked like he was trying to get back to the water."
Trying to get back to the water
without Jesus Christ we are all fishes out of vital water. we are dead fish going downstream. Livng fish go against the grain pit living fish go upstream because they have the strength. Jesus Christ is the way of Hope. Suicide is not the way out.
Jesus Christ loves you call out to him. Trust Jesus with all your heart and see how much she loves you and what he can do
@Yousavedbro Heaven Bound
Your religious preaching holds no value.
It's as valuable as the preaching you'd see in any other religion.
In fact, if it did hold value, said value would be irrelevant and unhelpful on the issue of suicide.
Suicidal people don't need a magical sky man who'll never prove his own existence to them to "be there".
They need real people who they can talk to, get advice from and spend time with to be there for them.
@@RocketPropelledGamer WELL SAID!
@@RocketPropelledGamer Why do you hold such a strong opinion on this matter ? Are you an authority on the many different religions.
Do you know the truth ?
Is your opinion more valid than anothers ?
I can tell you this forsure.
Belief in what you call religion has stopped millions committing suicide.
I guess you did not really think your comment through.
Perhaps you have a bug in your nose.
@@hopefilledsinner3911 the hell you on about? I can ask you the same questions that you are throwing at him! Might as well believe that santa exists huh? Continue living your believes out of a fictional book, but spare us!
this movie helped me through a rough night. best video i seen in my life. i think ill see it again tomorrow.
Good luck with everything, it can get pretty tough out there
Acid Rick Man.. It sure can.
Best video in ur whole life ? That’s deep
@@Andre-yp4nw
FML I am dead 😂🤣😭
Armchair Warrior- Chin up bro, it's gonna get better. We'll get through this.
The intro made me think that I had accidentally clicked on a vine compilation instead of an Omeleto video xD
Yeah me too😂
Plot twist: He doesnt actually have the biggest pepperonis in town
the message i got from this was that human connection and lending helping hand to people can overcome any sadness. The main guy has a somewhat sad existence but he doesnt let that stop him from helping others. When the one guy shoots himself the main character gets discouraged but upon finding out the dude is alive he realizes the smallest gestures can help the most. Great story and acting. Got a feel of Napoleon Dynamite for sure.
Years later, but yeah, the first lines delivered by the guy on the couch were said just like lines were delivered by ND.
I am so glad that this film is going to be seen by so many more people now. In just three weeks, it's nearly doubled three years' worth of views. I hope Justin gets some opportunities because of this!
thanks james
Him: Is it good?
Her: Not really.
Him: I'll have that.
The amount of symbolism sprinkled throughout this short is unreal
That living room scene. It was like Seth Rogan and Jason Lee were the actors. Well done
Haha, and thanks.
T.J. Miller type on the couch
i came searching through comments section for a Seth Rogan reference. i was going to make a Seth Rogan / Paul Rudd comment had i not found yours.
This is incredible writing. It's a combination of funny with a deeply serious issue. It was so touching to see the napkin which showed he did help someone. And that someone was standing in the rain (their first meeting conversation about rain drops) and watching him continue to help someone else.
Such a warm and caring soul.
This is incredibly well written. You have "“Most of us, we’re just little drops of rain", you have "the worlds a shitstorm and I am just holding an umbrella", you also have the story of the aunt, who died during or before a major thunderstorm...
You have "he looked like a fish trying to get back to the water", and the end scene is that its raining, and he is holding an umbrella.
“Most of us, we’re just little drops of rain”....Hollywood should be hiring directors like Justin to make something meaningful and original like this, he’s a little ray of sunlight.
The ending made me cry like a kid. We need more Popeyes in our life.
Also this is beautiful... Sadly most people think that people who kill themselves are selfish. Absolutely not... Yes it hurts those you leave behind... But they have a psychotic BREAK. That is not on them.. Also most places have little to no mental healthcare.. What do they expect people to do?? It'd so sad.. But to say they are selfish is sick.
I used to feel this way until I worked on this, and it truly helped me empathize with these people's situations. Saying "suicide is selfish" is just a gross misstatement that doesn't advance the discussion of the problem.
Antaya Fairless I still kind of do think that, but it doesn’t mean I don’t have sympathy for them. I try not to take a stand on it these days though due to the fact that I will probably never know what it is like to have depression extreme enough to want to end your own life.
It's not only sick but judge mental and what gives anyone the right to judge someone going through something they themselves can't relate to. Only God knows and only his opinion counts.
I have struggled with suicide for many years and I witnessed my dad struggle with suicide for most of my childhood and my dad witnessed his dad struggle with suicide for most of his life until my grandpa killed himself when my dad was a teenager and I was a toddler ... I am 25 now and I'm still heavily effected by this after all these years and I understand that mental illness can be genetically inherited but my point of typing this whole big message is that......suicide is selfish but it's not always wrong to be selfish..... the misconception comes in when people view being selfish as a terrible thing to do which is ridiculous
cuz YOUR FEELINGS AREN'T PART OF REALITY and until your feelings are in some way expressed they constantly affect only you
but wait
I'm NOT saying that ANYBODY should commit suicide if they feel suicidal ...but I don't think anyone can say that if you feel like you should put yourself first regardless of how it effects other that you would be wrong for doing what you feel is best for yourself
thank you for reading this
genuinely with love

Part of the problem with a lack of Mental Health Care is that "caring" people don't want to stigmatize those that seek it, and so end up minimalizing the care that would actually be of help. Sadly, we've had a bad history for asylums and wards and such where the patients would get severely abused. I think these two factors combine and essentially force people out on their own into life situations that they are not equipped to deal with. Where "not equipped" can mean anything and everything from addictions and dependencies to overwhelming circumstances and actual physical causes. A solution? REAL caring people make the effort to gather those that need help and figure out what each needs and how to get it for them.
Guys... This was amazing... What a moving , beautiful story... So much
poignancy and emotion. Thank you so much for your time and effort to deliver this to us. Much appreciated.
thanks for watching it
OMG!! This touched my heart in so many ways! I am retired military Army to be exact. As many of you know at least those of you who are in the USA that the armed forces and veterans has a lot of suicides. I am public health and I used to teach suicide awareness and prevention annual training along side the chaplain. We used to say suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem. On the surface level that is true but like everyone who has been depressed knows or if you know someone who has been depressed or has committed suicide (sadly we ALL know someone who has) your problem or their problem is something that they feel they cannot get over or live through...and at that MOMENT in time maybe it isn't. Life is about many such moments. Bad, good, okay...all of which can be worked through and even if YOU cannot think of a good solution or resolution, you can always talk to someone who can. THINGS no matter how they may appear at the time can ALWAYS be worked through. I have to tell myself the very same thing all the time. Okay, I have to say that the actors in this short was OUTSTANDING!!!
Well said, worked as a Dr. for the VA, in a relationship with a retired military, my grandfather and my father served in the military... there is sooo much to heal...only God....
@@essilevi07ify Yes. I'm planning to become a psychologist for the VA in a few months, and one thing I have learned over all these years of clinical practice is that God truly is the only one who can heal some wounds (if not all).
@@Evelyn-pl3we God is good
This is amazing. A bit of Wes Anderson, Baumbauch, and some Napoleon Dynamite too! I hope Justin makes more stuff like this!
Fantastic! Actors were best I've seen in a short. Had a "Napoleon Dynamite" vibe, but much deeper meaning, delving into the tragedy of human existence and the lingering effects of suicide on those left behind to wonder if they could have done more to help. Made me cry, keep up the good work. I would love to see this as a full length film. 💕 Much Love 💖 Many Blessings 🌟
thanks for watching!
Definitely a Napoleon Dynamite vibe. Which is great 👍
Chair scene instantly had me thinking Napoleon Dynamite
I was looking for this comment
Definitely had a Napoleon dynamite/ Welcome to the Dollhouse vibe to it. The actors are insanely talented
I agree with your comment about this video having a "Napoleon Dynamite" vibe! This was such an excellent film, great acting, great story and a whole lot of really good quotable lines. Loved it!
A low-key, almost gentle look at a depressing subject, very well done. Thanks for posting this one!
This is hits super close to home. As I’ve had very close members take their life’s as young as 15 in the past year. And struggling with it myself this is such a well done project and puts things into better perspectives.
May God gives you the strength to continue on..
Really enjoyed that. Only recently discovered 'Omeleto' and that is one of the best I've seen. Quirky and interesting characters, excellent stuff. The only disappointment was that it ended, I wanted more. Would love to see a feature length sequel.
I personally like the brevity of the Omeleto shorts. It lets them focus on one thing narratively without the need of filler. It can stay focused and concise.
This was incredibly life-affirming, besides being so beautifully acted.
This one really touched home man. I just lost my brother.. Been feeling a bit screwed myself lately.
all love to you
I'm 20 I lost my brother to suicide a year ago.. he shot him self In his truck in front of me. I spent 4 days cleaning it bc he wrote that " he wanted me to sell the truck." He was 22.. also he was my only brother. I know how you feel, but all we can do is live on and enjoy the memories.. stay strong man
Me too, I don't know how to live in a world without him . My condolences , I send you love and strength.
ReppGaming he clearly wasn’t thinking straight, if logic had been with him at all he would have at the very least done it outside of the truck, knowing he’d written for you to sell it. God what a situation, I’m sorry man.
Hey man keep your head up, I lost my mother & it sucks but we gotta move forward that's what they would've want!
The best writing let's you sympathize with people you've only seen for 5 minutes
the photography of this is stunning, the colors are symbolic, smart, tasteful, full of personality. a whole great job.
I started this and after a few minutes I paused it, went to the comments, then decided to continue it thru the end and am glad I did.
I did the exact same thing
"With our fresh toppings, straight from the streets of Mexico!"
Because pizza is such a classic Mexican dish. LOL!
Depression and how we treat those with it. Such a humane and dignified approach to it too. I just don't think you're gonna find many films that are good and take care with a subject as somber as this.
first time in a while I've fully cried...even longer since I've cried to a movie--almost the whole time too. this half hour movie is some of the most powerful filmmaking I've ever seen. major props to Mr. Robinson and everyone involved with this project.
I was deeply moved by this film, and Jordan Crowder's acting was incredible. Just watching the emotion play across his face while listening to his friend describe the suicide at around 16:00 made the film worth watching. The redemption at the end really clinched it. I kept thinking that there was something really familiar about Jordan, and discovered on IMDb that he's Steven Crowder's brother.
I agree, I really appreciated the short. But who was the guy the camera focused on in the rain at the end? I'm probably just daft, but I've been scrubbing the video to find the guy again.
@@jacobmartin8332 Mickey's ghost, appeared to be the same actor but more well dressed.
I loved this one it was not over for me to have to guess what happened HE DIDN'T kill himself thank you. kindness counts.
Ive lost a couple of friends to suicide. This one really impacted me.
So many messages and lessons in this very well done film. Loved all the characters even the ones in their stories.
holy... this was surreal. In the best kind of way. absolute piece of art
I'm glad I continued watching! It was a good short movie 📽
....pizza guy reminded me a little of Seth Rogen.
hahah “continued watching”? i think we had the same viewing experience... i hated the beginning, turned off my phone and slept, watched the next morning and enjoyed the rest. also hell yes to Seth Rogan. when he was talking to Mickey, all i could hear was a Seth Rogan - Paul Rudd conversation.
Just me or does this video have a slight Napoleon Dynamite feel. Love watching these short films.
Best film I've seen of the group.The acting, writing,and directing all with a quirky edge.Thanks to all who made this film happen.
Oh Omeleto, where have u been all my life
This is always one of those shorts I've watched over the years... that i've never forgot. Its always stuck with me. I felt something inside when I watched this.. and that doesnt happen often.
From experience I can say that living your life trying to help people that don't want to be helped and being surrounded by negative people that hate your positivity is it very draining and disheartening thing. This film is beautifully made.
Probably the best film I've seen on Omelto. Perfect casting, sets, script... a masterpiece.
Wow.. I mean, I m seriously speechless at how amazing this film had portraid real life. Bravo Omeleto! And here's to hopefully making a full film in the future👏👏👏
I feel like a Ronald!! Guess there always has to be those who hold the umbrella for all the other raindrops 😊
One day, we wont feel our worth by what we do to earn a crust. Nothing wrong with working in a Burger Joint if you try to have a life in between.
He has such a good heart :'(
HOW TF DOES THIS ONLY HAVE 33k VEIWS!!!! Greatest thing I’ve seen in a long time!
Another human trying to help another human that wants to end it all. I am touched.
The conversation between Lewis and Laurie was terrific.
Laurie: Are you still waiting on someone?
Lewis: Nope. Just by myself. Still standing there.
Laurie: Would you like fries with that.
Lewis: I do. --- Brilliant retorts.
"You're not special, you're not a beautiful and unique snowflake, you're the same decaying organic matter as everything else, were all part of the same compost heap, were the all singing all dancing crap of the world"
One of the best shorts I have ever seen! All the actors were so real. The main actor was awesome. The film took me from sad and depressed to happy and aware of how just a little kindness and caring can make a difference in people’s lives. Keep making these films!
A touching, heartfelt story of friendship and kindness.
Aah so incredibly beautiful! The spirit of kindness the short tries to portray, through acting, and immensely deep script. Just love this one.

Woah this looks like a Wes Anderson Movie set int the 80s!
Exactly what I thought
i doubt anybody reads these anymore because it is two years old. but the part when he said "so are you gonna leave a note?" at 12:51 destroyed me. my best friend didn't leave a note. please leave a note.
Ronald is a good guy. I liked that character A LOT
Low-key oddball humor that is poignant and heartbreaking. Fantastic!
IT'S NOT EVEN MIDDAY OMELETO I DIDN'T NEED THESE FEELS
Sometimes we all need someone to hold the umbrella when it rains, amazing short
This short had so many layers to it! Bravo, superbly well done. One of my favorites!!!
SERIOUSLY, could someone PLEASE pick up these extraordinary actors and writer and get to a series. My GAWD,, this is epic
All the Dislikes don't understand the true complexity of this short film. Good job. I really liked the ending nice one.
I think this shows just how lonely being an optimist can be, with every pain felt by others weighing you down with guilt and worry. And you have to continuously push up others in hopes to ease that pain of the world. With so many people all sad and pained and hurting, it can become overwhelming, and it can feel like you're helpless to the suffering of others. But then you remember the ones that did get better, and you see the ones that you helped, and you continue to hold that umbrella for anyone in the rain.
"What's so bad about being a raindrop anyway?"
- finally someone said it
It took me a little bit to notice the scar on Mickey’s neck at the end. Like Ronald, I thought he died, so it was a difficult moment to process when I first saw him alive. I realize now that he did have that last second change of heart, and though he injured himself badly, he survived.
This is extremely well written and performed.. I loveeee it ... such a heart warming wholesome feeling
ALWAYS..ALWAYS stop what your doing and help someone no matter the time. Were always in a rush for insignificant things..You never know...
Dude, I am IN LOVE with this pizza guy. He is too sweet and so pure.
Not sure why but this film touched me so much.
I almost didnt watch this whole thing because the characters were driving me nuts but my hands were too full to mess with my phone. Im glad I was too busy to change it. Thank you
The aesthetics makes me think Wes Anderson. I like Wes Anderson but the characters here are real. The conversations here are gold to, but the acting here, wow!
Popeye is a flavor of good guy that has long been discontinued.
I would love to meet guys like this. What compelling sensitivity and humanity.
it is currently 1 am and i have a full day of college tomorrow. i am at the brink of tears. as someone who has been in both shoes of the main leads heling people not kill them selves and trying many times i connect with this short film. personaly im a big fan of film and media, this it the best peice of work ive seen in a long long time from a indie shortfilm worker. i hope justin has made more for me to find down the road
Holy crap this was so good
i've seen this a few times over the years, simply amazing. How it doesn't have millions of views is beyond me.
Hit will all kinds of surprises. When you think hes grabbing the umbrella to go look for him, he simply helps Jerry to stay dry.
This made me go from crying to laughing to uncomfortable in a matter of 10 seconds.
best comment ever.
I swear I was on the brink of tears, this was amazing! This deserves to be watched by more people! Amazing!
I love the ending on this one!! Thanks for the hope!
Wow--so, so, so, well done.
Kudos. Script, acting, camera work, editing -- everything was tone-perfect.
Hey... I keep working and going to school and always ask my self if will pay off in the end and wondering if I'm doing the right thing.But this video helped me with realizing as long as you believe in what you do and enjoy what you can. What you enjoy will help others, even if you don't think it does... thanks for listening.
Wow, this was really good. I'm surprised the video has only been viewed 270k times in 5 years.
Amazing video. Almost made me cry.
Okay. This one was really, really, REALLY good. I'm genuinely impressed.
I have far too many suicides in my family and this movie was so assuring for me that I am not the only one. At first I thought I would burst into tears but I found strength. Thanks for rescuing me Jordan Crowder.
This hit me... HARD. I am that person that feels like I hold up the umbrella for so many. Im going to have to come back to this video again for inspiration , or for when I need to cry. This one touched me and struck me to my core. THIS is great film making. I hope to see more from you in the future. (And this isfrom a Film composer)
