- Two strangers at a wedding reception make an unexpected connection.
RECEPTION is used with permission from Joe Gillette. Learn more at vimeo.com/joegillette.
Paul is the best man in a wedding, watching the post-ceremony proceedings with an air of detachment and melancholy. While he's surrounded by an atmosphere of love and happiness, he's clearly not quite feeling it himself. But as he tries to avoid the crowd, he meets Jessie, and the conversation between two strangers eventually turns into a spark.
Writer-director Joe Gillette's short romantic dramedy is a sweet, witty slice of life that focuses on how people really truly connect to one another. In a genre where the "meet cute" is often a little too clever, facile and clouded in fantasy, this short is well-scripted, with an eye to explore genuine emotional resonance, especially among ordinary people who struggle with simple everyday awkwardness.
With such honest, compelling dialogue, the performances stand out, achieving a verisimilitude emphasized by the film's minimalist visual approach. Essentially a long conversation taking place between two people, the camera keeps the attention tightly on the two actors, giving the audience the privilege of watching two people come out of their shells and spark a connection between two people.
RECEPTION is simple and elegant in execution, but the ideas and feelings underlying this small-scale gem are messy, complicated, vulnerable and compelling. Open-hearted and sincere, it just may inspire viewers to look at life through the lens of opportunity -- and expand horizons in their own everyday way. - Фільми й анімація
She knew his name, she noticed him give the speech...
She didn't just randomly go and sit there.
Brilliant script and acting♥️
Interesting Imagination. She did notice but Best Man gets first to speak - So may have been just normally noticing.
In India we will never have situation like these. No best friend would marry a girlfriend. If they do - The best friend would not attend the marriage.
If they do - They will never be BEST MAN
You must be an bong girl. !
I lost my bestfriend in similar way.... I dont know if out of respect to his fiancee or if she was jealous as hell, but a 15 y friendship ended when I was not invited to the wedding and he cut me off as a friend without any explanation whatsoever... just drifting apart! We didn´t even were dated we were friends only (but with benefits one time only we drank too much) and that was it. Ages before she came along.... and I encorage him to date her, marry her.... and at the end was uninvited! Weird thing!
Exactly!
superb food great food good and yummy yummy burger yummy yummy food and good prices and food was good but the burger was so yummy
Everyone says the girl's carrying the convo, but if you're in his shoes, I don't think you'd have the mood to sail a convo smoothly.
Very true. I think people forget the context of the conversation, as well. This isn't two people on a date, where both are expected to equally contribute to a flowing conversation. They are two random people who are slowly and spontaneously getting to know each other. The conversation is bound to be choppy/awkward in the beginning.

Teena Courtney was 😏
Teena Courtney it time 🤪
good eye!
Her walking away was so painful for both of them. She was so relieved when he called her back for a dance. Two lonely people who deserve each other.
i think even the audience was relieved as well. I sure was 😭
loved it the perfect ending
@@atulkrishna3467
It was part of the game, like the flirting. She said "someone quicker" and then she gave him the shot and he took it.
These two actors are terrific. When he demonstrates the faux phone call, pulling off a second layer of acting within acting, that was impressive.
This can be 6 minutes without losing the plot
@@bowonetpreneur894
Short attention span, huh?
I just realized I watched two people talking and pointing at things that doesn't exist and the entire time I'm imagining what the party looks like! Great job on the acting! This feels like a theater!
that is some deep thought.. i was imagining what the party would like , but never in my wildest dream thought that, there is no Party.. appreciate your thought!
Yeah agreed this is would work as a short play
Oh wow, during the entire film I never realized, it didn't show a single shot of the party. It just felt right there all the time.
superb food great food good and yummy yummy burger yummy yummy food and good prices and food was good but the burger was so yummy
We used to have such parties outside before we had mobile phones and PUBG
Probably the most organic conversation I have witnessed in a film.
Organic means natural, right? Good point.
@@joecook5689 free of pesticides/GMOs, yes.
I would wager there were no pesticides in that convo.
@@defnotsimon1922 ok. I think you're being sarcastic. But live a happy life.
Wish I was in it.
@@defnotsimon1922 You would be correct. lol
I keep coming back to this every now and again.. something about the acting, the conversation, the noise in the background.. that hidden spot they found.. just calming
The conversation was very relatable, absolutely loved it!
yepp me too! i would defenitely be the girl at a party.. love distancing myself for a minute at a party.. and when i find someone who wants to join me and have a relaxing convo, that would be great haha
yeah this his is one of my favorites on here. I love their back and forth.
@@InhaleSkyExhaleStars Okay, then how about i start here? do you think youtube is a great place to start a convo or is it just cliche?
Yep me too dude!
“He finally found someone to dance with.”
And so did you, Paul ❤️
Thanks for pointing this out. I overlooked the significance of that last bit! Thank you!
"Hey Jess, do you want to dance?" Looks like he finally found someone to dance with too...
The way she instantly turned and said "yeah!" - she was desperately praying he would finally do something
Way too underrated comment
Brilliant
He turned the tide at the very last second
Well said
Whoever wrote this needs a medal.... and the actors were superb.
It was written directed and starred the same person :)
These are so well done.
@@alexhyatt701 and executive produced...
It did get well-deserved film festival awards...
The woman is easy on the eyes as well.
The dialogue is so realistic. The small awkward pauses, his stuttering and stammering almost like you can see him thinking of the right words as if he's not going off a script
This is the kind of story you dream of happening. Unfortunately, I'm almost 70 years old and I still dream of that kind of connection. Thank you for bringing this story to us.
I hope you find it!
At this point women should not even matter to you sir, its time to find real happiness which lies within you
@@greenweed3253 Humans naturally seek companionship, friendship, relationship. It's in the "I -- Thou" that people thrive/grow. Of course, there is a rhythm to it: solitary alternates with community. But only solitary has the risk of narcissism. Too much community risks loss of autonomy. Man -- Woman is a special bond that is not the same/is more than: biology. visualist6x6: live every day, yet sense the wise guidance evident in your biography.
press F for our soldier
@@greenweed3253I’m 49 happy in myself with a very fulfilling life, but there’s always a part of us that still wants that connection.
How did they make 21 minutes feel like several hours this is like an actual conversation
hahaha
It is.
@thatguyoverthere there's this thing called personality
It felt like a whole movie for me. Not in a negative way *-*
Uh...@thatguyoverthere you need a level of confidence when speaking to a girl/woman. Find out about them and if and when the flow of conversation ends, dont linger then it becomes awkward. It does help tho that the chick is relatively talkative like her. Some are not so much and then it doesnt last past 1 minute.
the girl was so brave and interested in the guy, she guided him 90% of the way and saw if he'd make the last step.
If I was him, that hint would have been lost.
I'm as dense as lead
And the other 10% is guiding him to be the person she wants him to be. Run Paul, run
@@General_Eisenhower1945 Ohh come on, the obvious "unnecessary touch" after the no-touch involved unless there is flirting ....
@@GrizzlyLord to me, in that situation, I would take it as a joke...
After analyzing it after I'd kick myself in the pants
Well i think in my place kinda hard to find a woman like that, wanna talk to the man she kinda like but she completely doesnt know about him.
When they two patted each other after a discussion about "unnecessary touching while flirting", I couldn't help but chuckle at these two
They are so precious and I really loved the natural feeling between these two, awkward conversation, pausing and the feeling of both of them not sure how to "describe" something
So true! They are adorable and that past was the sweetest! Loved every second of this little gem!
I also enjoyed the innocence of the conversation and situation and the connection and humor through the awkwardness.
Check around 18:12 they have a discussion about touching and she raises her hands expecting like a shake and he totally misses it. hahahah us awkward people have all been there where we try to give a handshake or fist bump at the wrong time lol.
I burst out laughing!
What a great little film. Absolutely top notch. I could watch these two in conversation any time.
Absolutely loved this one. These two actors have more undeniable chemistry than most Netflix rom-coms.
100% agree!!!! They should be famous!!!!
As he asked her to dance all I could think was "you finally found someone to dance with"
Same
OMG I thought the exact same thing!
that's the point actually
Anthony Jaime I think that was the point lmao.
Were you the best man, though?
The flirt touches were just... everything.
@ur mom needs to chill
Yep, even though it was provoked, they felt high current....
@@marsattacks7071 that touch she did was a way to provoke but he flirted to it?, damn
THEY WERE WERENT THEY
I liked his response when she said she had a boyfriend cos I was thinking "Dude, I feel your pain" and man it seemed like all his blood ran from his face.
That was the most awkward, adorable, yet realistic conversation I think I’ve ever seen.
He wrote, directed, AND starred in this? Holy crap! Bravo!!!
They could make a 2 hr movie of them just talking and id watch it
That's so true
Same! This thing was amazing.
Me too
there's movie like that watch destination wedding its amazing whole movie is about deep meaningful conversations
@xenone ! watched that long back
Props to the woman. She actually broke a bunch of those silences which finally made the guy comfortable at a conversation
It's always the girl who decides where it's going, but lets the guy or rather makes the guy make a final move before making her final decision 🙂
@@onedirection6221 phd?
when a girl does this to a guy, does it always mean that they're actually interested in you? or are they just being nice or just cant stand being in an awkward silence?
In reality girls don’t that
@@mridulkanti1995 🦋 yup, all the time🦋
I like how his eyes progressively started to light up
I know!!! Just brilliant acting! He just started to come alive again… ever so subtly…. Magical! ✨
The reverse of Michael Corleone
This is the most awkward conversation I’ve ever seen and it’s so realistic
When she said "it's my boyfriend" my heart fell out! This was so good
Good god, it's like the writer stalked me during like half of my life.
Agreed! I watched that part ten times ... so great!
Gold Rose IKR!
Lol that was funny. She said look at u ur totally drained out of energy.
My face expression went equal with his.
Dude that moment when he completely forgot her name was exactly what I was thinking at the exact same time. The script is actually pretty relatable
Same here!
Right?? I even forgot the name as well
U have to ask the name cos u forget info told to U, but I did exactly same
I wondered how she knew his
@@fairwind8676 he was the best man so he woulda been introduced, us men seem to think we're the hunters in these situations but really she knew as soon as he did his speach im guessing
So, why can't we see THIS kind of writing and acting in mainstream shows?
because they are too busy trying to figure out what race or gender needs to be included than good story telling
@@DInfXsMD 100 THUMBS UP!!!!!!!
This short packs more pure entertainment into 21 minutes than most full length movies.
The conversation they were having felt so natural I almost forgot I was watching a youtube video instead of attending a wedding
Yeah. One of the most realistic conversations I've ever seen in a movie.
I actually find it quite made up, like somebody hired her for him, if you know what I mean. Perhaps its her acting...
@@andriyshapovalov8886 disagree. it wasn't exactly 100% realists, cause lets be honest, nobody is as witty, but this is the best movie that captures the spark of a relationship. the spark of energy in a conversation idk its such good acting
@@aryan7767 perhaps not acting, but some subtle mannerism, something typical to North America. I know one east Indian girl born in Canada, if that's correct way to say these days), so she talks and acts exactly alike. Somewhat funny feeling to see a South Asian talk the way typical mainstream North American. Feels unnatural to me.
@@andriyshapovalov8886 maybe its not the acting then. just the weird connection to your life that the movie has to you, and perhaps that makes it special . cheers
The smirk when she patted him... That feeling for a guy. You know he left the planet for a second
So did I.. so did I 😭😭❤️
and she reminds me of Jennifer Aniston's personality
That’s a fact! And mine was compounded when I literally got a text back shortly after that moment from the girl I’ve liked for a couple years who I wasn’t sure liked me back! The message said that I’m such a good friend. Noodle shot of the century… UNTIL she said she was just kidding. So guys… This is your formal invitation to my wedding. (Keep your calendars clear for 2023. LoL.
And he got an instant semi chub
@@blacksuburban2410 yo yo yo yo.. when and where ?? I'd like to join. OwO
I’m divorced after being married for 35 years, never expected to meet someone who would mirror who I am. This short film reminded how lucky I am to meet my partner by walking into a restaurant and seeing her at the counter. After 4th time going there, when I pay my check, I slipped her my phone number with bill. She texted me 3 weeks later and wish me a Happy New Year. From then on, we’ve been together for 4 years
Well done buddy 👏🏻
Paul's face when jesse said "texting back to boyfriend "
Tbh, I was like ugh..damn that's gonna put some salt to already injurious wedding party.
Pfft, I've retreated to a dark, secluded corner on several weddings, but no attractive ladies came to chat _me_ up.
You should've taken off your camouflage.
Mostly.. attractive ladies don't retreated to the dark..
U should detached them from their dance partners..
At any cost
Well I have and they have to chat me up, it's called coke
antred11: That’s Hollywood for ya. Doesn’t really reflect real life. But One can dream. 😉
Well it sounds very situational. Its rare and thats why it is interesting to watch.
I like the character progression displayed here. Jess at the beginning said that she constantly checks on her phone, yet throughout their convo, she hasn't reached for her phone once. Paul, told a story about how he's a wallflower and that he didn't have anyone to dance with at the prom, but by the end of it he asked Jess to dance
In my life, her husband would've texted her or come to get her.
Yes,me too
❤️❤️💯💯
This was perfect. It wasn't too long, it wasn't too short, I loved the characters and the character progression. I love the actors, the set, the way it made you feel like there was actually a wedding reception going on off screen. I love the stories and the conversation. It was relaxing and exciting, and then you hit the let down at the end when she starts walking away. Only to be brought back full circle and finding somebody to dance with. Freakin' perfect.
It should be no more than 7 minutes
She looks and acts like the perfect girlfriend. Her smile was mesmerizing. He had a vulnerability that wasn't pathetic, just showed a hint of sadness. This was wonderfully acted. I love simple character driven films. Watching their eye movements and body language tells so much. I'm glad he asked her to dance. Fantastic film.
"Finally he found someone to dance with". Wow what a metaphor. Guy at the end finally asked her to dance with him. And her reaction was priceless.
yeah she was literally begging for it
Loved the way she turned around when he said her name at the end.
superb food great food good and yummy yummy burger yummy yummy food and good prices and food was good but the burger was so yummy
Yes😭👌🏼✨ I was just about to comment that

This was so heart-warming. In all the awkwardness it was cute!I was swooning and giggling throughout😍

No. you forgot. The acting is the key.
The editing was solid too
I had this kind of conversation once, just once in my life, I was 20 and I had to travel a whole night with an old train in an eastern Europe country. In my compartment came a girl, it was just us. We talked like this all night long. I still remember her beautiful eyes.
Before Sunrise
Bro didn’t secure the bag
Betlem. Flying back from Sevilla. Just came and sat in a seat next to mine mid-flight and we talked. She was beautiful, and Spanish...not Colombian, they're all beautiful...both got off the plane in Dulles. Never talked again. 20 - 25 years ago. Some women are unforgettable...in small doses 🤣🤣
This is absolutely amazing. So innocent and cute. He is introverted, and she is an ambivert. Both are a bit shy but very respectful and playful. Lovely to watch.
This was amazingly made. Can't believe I just watch two person having awkward conversation for 20 minutes!
Abir Ahmed Pias I know right bro there's obviously some underlying chemistry for an awkward convo like that to have any grip like I'm not sure if I've ever experienced anything like this or perhaps all of my experiences are like this
Abir Ahmed Pias what do you mean “awkward conversation”? They were hitting it off! 😉
@@ania8009 but most importantly not in a flirty way !
@@ohhsally2797 Totally with you on... sorry, gotta take this call - It's my aunt.
@@RBEmerson Ummm...your screen isn't...even...On !
Who else is on an Omeleto marathon...!?!
It’s actually pronounced Omeleto
It happens to all of us.
For many years...
Ohh God !!.. this is 10 film today only
i get down this rabbit hole once a month ahhaha
Yep, been two years. Time to watch it again. Yep. Still a great little film.
I watched this two times in a row. The second time it feels different when he says "I know too many people here".
Now that i read your comment, the statement feels different to me too. He knows "too many' and probably too much. But he chose peace over drama
Yeah, and in reference to "best man duties."
"Done. Those are done." I think it means more than just for the wedding day.
those 20 minutes went by like nothing, just because I was genuinely interested in their conversation.
I know. I'm so invested!!!
Same
I felt like only 7min went on by!

There is a movie where a jury fights over if a 17 year old kid committed murder that I saw in language arts. I'm not sure about the name of the movie but it is similar in the sense of them just in the room for the entire movie

@Apocalyps: Well, if a conversation is interesting, people don't necessarily mind hearing it. Just have a fancy background and fancy lighting, and it's conceivable, and doesn't necessarily require brilliance.
There's also an awesome movie called The Sunshine Limited, with Tommy Lee Jones and Samuel L. Jackson.
When she said "it's my boyfriend" reminds me of those times when you meet someone online and you're getting along really well and they just randomly bring up their partner. and your heart sinks.
Goshh, I wish I could like this a million times.
The conversation is so natural, their acting is so gripping, especially the Male actor, he makes you completely forget that he's just acting ❤️
So absolutely true! They were both amazing and I give it 1000000000000000 stars! 🌟
"He finally found someone to dance with." Wasn't his way of saying "Good for him, he found love" he was actually saying "He finally left me, and I have to let him go."
"and her"
Man great memory..
No kidding but this is one of the better romantic shorts that I've seen
*Coming from a true hopeless romantic*
yeah, this one was really the best. the girl has so much energy...
She is "quicker"!😁
You should see the film "Destination Wedding" with Winona Rider and Keanu Reeves...This as a movie...the only actual heard dialogue is the two main characters.
Jess' pivot and expression when Paul called her name!!! The actor sold that completely, as well as how avidly she wanted a physical contact that wasn't accidental, whatsoever. Brilliant and moving!!!
I’ve seen this short a thousand times and still can’t get over how good it is. The script is sharp, acting brilliant, production 👌🏾 I’d watch other films with these two in it because they’re real good actors.
Agree 💯 %! Me too!
90% relatable as an introvert
Or you have watched HIMYM
True
I have been in moments like these
Arent we going to talk about the type of person she is? She litteraly one of the most likeable types of people there is , everyone of us has met someone like her
Yeah i searched for a comment like yours really loved her personality
@@sorenamoghaddam6736 legit gives me heavy Emma stone vibes. she even sounds like her and looks a bit like her
She's put together well
@@sinuslebastian6366 hahaha good reference
Some of us have such natural "charm" that we drive people like her away. I really like her. And by some of us I mean me. And by natural charm I mean completely gobsmacked, tongue tied. Dunno what to talk about and yet I met this beautiful woman a few years ago, we had good conversation, then we kinda drifted apart. Now I see her regularly again. She looks a lot like the woman here. And I am so keen to make it work with her but I am hopeless at knowing what to say. We chatted well before because I hadn't thought of her romantically but now that I am, I get tongue-tied, I mean what's with that.
I keep coming back once in a while, when a sense of romantic strikes me -- it is amazing how she controls the whole situation all the time
I watch this every 3/4 months. A classic
The body language is brilliantly acted.
I commented earlier re the same, the subtleties of their movements and expressions were really incredible. I would rather watch two hours of this than any movie I can recall ever seeing!
@Jacob Hiller: I don't know, the touching moments seemed pretty artificial and stiff to me, but maybe I'm not properly visualizing how that's supposed to look from my perspective. Overall the body language looked ok, but it didn't strike me as particularly skillful or brilliant.
Her demeanor is uncanny to Emma Stone
true
Yes that was excellent!!
Oh my god. This made me grin from ear to ear at the end!
Me too. That draining of life thg... happened to me once and the girl and her frds saw it. Felt embarrassing though.
"It's my boyfriend." LMMFAO!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 OMG, I LOVE this film!
Literally me right now
Me toooo it’s so cute
I was actually going to write that as my comment.
This was wild! I just watched 20 minutes of people talking and didn’t feel bored at all! It didn’t take music or over-the-top camera shots or lighting. It was all acting.
My relationship started awkwardly, and I am so thankful I could read his heart. We have been happily married for 23 years, and it keeps getting better.
Wow that could be a great movie
*I loved how non-sexual their chemistry was* ✨
you fell on your ass
You can really see how their banter would be such an enjoyable part of their relationship. Sooo good! Loved this.
@@deemiller5024 Totally agree 😊🙌🏻
They were flirting without touching. 😉
Felt sexual af to me..but I’m the type that gets wet from awkward at first, intellectual, sarcastic/dry humorous banter.
In a real world scenario, actually the guy is imagining a girl talking to him.
Yeah that's pretty accurate...sad but accurate.
Bro just turned a romantic film to a psychological horror prequel.
or a ' friend' sent him an escort'. Which on top of all the treachery, would be real depressing and evel.. my ending, by the way :)
Accurate AF
@@vojislavdragic5090 if i had a friend like that i'd be like "man that is a good friend."
I have watched this short film far too many times, and still enjoy it each time. Really very well done.
I will be doing the same! There is so much to observe in their facial expressions, in their eyes, in their subtle mannerisms…. For sure requires several viewings!!!
This is the only pure conversation that I enjoy watching and I won't get bored.
It went from "what a great best friend" to "why are you still hanging with this guy"
The friend is a douchebag. And to make him best man, how awkward
superb food great food good and yummy yummy burger yummy yummy food and good prices and food was good but the burger was so yummy
Maybe he thought he owed him this, because his friend didn't dance with alle the girls, just to not leave him alone.
She gives me massive Emma Stone vibes 😂 I loved this so much. They have such chemistry 😭
Rachel Cat the comment I was looking for
Yeah looks like Andrew and Emma in here
I LOOKED EVERYWHERE FOR THIS COMMENT THANK YOU
I finally found a comment about that
She gives me even more Lois Lane from Smallville vibes 😃😃
This is officially a comfort film!
The script is amazing and the actors did such a great job, I feel like I'm intruding ❤️
It made me nostalgic about an encounter of mine. It's beautiful how every small detail of emotions was portrayed without being melodramatic.
Paul: "Hey Jess..... do you wanna dance?"
Me: *jump-off-the-couch* YEAHHH, finally!!!!
Marcel ... you big softy! Me too.
ME TOO
superb food great food good and yummy yummy burger yummy yummy food and good prices and food was good but the burger was so yummy
Aww, the suspense! I was cheering at the end!
She likes him a lot. He's not bad either.
Here's my analysis on her thoughts and what happens:
7:15 Teasing and a compliment
8:52 Mirroring
10:35 'I like you'
10:56 'Aw, that's so sweet'
14:08 First clue. She basically says it out loud. She really IS invested. Into him. His life story.
16:00 More mirroring. He knows his stuff
16:23 She tests to get his reaction.
17:03 First usage of the word 'we' as in 'we're a couple'
Acknowledging the connection they have
17:22 'I really, really like this guy'
17:52 Intense Eye Contact
18:30 'Look, I'm touching you. We're officially flirting right now.'
19:21 'Now's your chance. Ask me out!'
19:29 'Okay, you didn't get the message...'
19:37 'Second chance. You'll never see me again!'
20:12 'Third strike. I'm out.'
20:16 My face, usually, after she leaves
20:21 'FINALLY!'
And men say women don't try... I wish a woman worked this hard to get me.
Update: thanks for all the Likes, guys.
I first thought, I'm like him but I am more extroverted and social so I guess I'm like her.
I just realised that.
And I really loved how she seduced him
Great short 👏 👌 👍
Costin Patru nailed it!!!...
Maybe they get confused when you say things like "he's not bad either", ?
@Potato Lord wanker
Keep wishing brother, just giving you the hard truth. Don't mean to sound like a dick. In a womans' head working hard to get a man reeks of desperation so they will rarely do so. A quality woman anyways. To put it simply it's natural selection, guy makes the effort and it's up to the women to either reject or accept him and sift out the best genes for future generations.
@@trever2244 Not really, when women like you they show it they even make the first steps showing you the way is open for you to advance. No matter how pushy you are without her advances you just look awkward.
But I guess its situational and in my situations it worked out like that. There is no truth.
As a 40+ single guy sitting at home watching random you tube clips,
i'm glad i stumbled upon this. Beautiful story. 2 beautiful people talking
2 each other and 'hitting it off" and are complete at ease with each other.
Wow, there is hope yet. Mmmmmm im getting the feels.
I hear ya sir however, unfortunately in this day and age 'hope' is futile.
Some people get lucky and some don't, some win some lose.
Being human is a trauma in and of itself.
@@Andre-hm5vo Haha dude we should get a coffee, I like the way you are put together, not gay though.
@@FranktheDachshund You sure? (not being gay, suggestion two guys getting together for a coffee, and not a beer) Just joking dude.
I'm a realist my friend and all I see in people/environments is problems everywhere, that being because authenticity/naturality is destroyed or rare if one is trying to seek truth/sense (me) in this dysfunctional world.
I watched this several times and I realized just now, that with every frame, they're sitting more close to each other than they did at the beginning. The nuances in this short is top notch.
Respect to the woman for having the courage to start the conversation and making efforts
damn right.
know where the real respect came?? when he told her about the unnecessary touching she actually had her hand up for like a high five or handshake or something, she cued him at that point and he totally missed it... then you could tell he realized super late and felt awkward about it, THEN she was like "ok lets try this again" and tapped him. lol that was definite effort. she was hinting at him the whole time and he was just missing it poor fella. hope he lives up to her expectations
304
haha, but this almost never happens in real life
When he said "See the one in the white dress?" I was like "wow, how distasteful is this woman, to wear white at a wedding... Wait... Ooooh!"
SAME!!!
I knew he meant the bride before he pointed her out.
@@thecallitaspadechannel2794 yeah it kinda flows naturally in that direction...
HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! I was guessing that he will directly respond, "The Bride."
@@thecallitaspadechannel2794 yep definitely
After watching this scene the first time, so many thoughts. This was an example of the universe stepping in and rewarding him for being a good man. All he’d been through had been preparing him for her. I loved the way she would look at him. Realizing the strength he has dealing with that night. In not knowing what happened after that night, I believe she ended up being the one.
Incredible short. Haven’t been so invested in 2 characters like that in a long time haha solid buildup, solid twist, and a perfect “inside joke” ending
Omg....his face when she said she had a boyfriend 🥺. I want someone to have that look for me.
I love this one. She was the quicker one he needed.
If you have the look I'm looking for I'd have that look for you.
I have had that happen to me. A nice conversation, hitting it off with someone nice and all of a sudden the word "boyfriend" slaps you back to reality so fast you feel like you fell back to earth after soaring too high.

When he had earlier said that he never gathered the courage to ask anyone out in his highschool days ... and at the end she was about to leave under the pretext of catching up with her friend... I think what she really intended to see.. was, whether he's still that shy guy from the highschool or whether he musters up the courage to finally ask someone out.. that is, to finally ask her out.. which he does... and suddenly she ain't looking for her friend anymore... and immediately agrees to dance with him..!!!
it doesnt have to be. maybe she was just getting a break and trying to avoid awkward moments of silence. and since you dont have to talk anything while you are dancing...
Also, the glaring eyes she gave him when she was about to leave says it all that all she wanted was for him to ask her to dance and to see his reaction for her leaving.
Lol yeah. She DID test his reaction before a lil bit.
I thought "looking for her friend" was the perfect excuse to end up having ssx at such a nice place on such a perfect occasion.
Good eye to notice that she did exactly that
Her mannerisms are on point for the personality type she's embodying. If I had to describe it, it'd be humorous and slightly insane. And they're generally some of the most fun girls you'll ever meet. Great stuff
but trouble I would suggest.
I must have watched this 20 times over the last 4 years. 21 minutes feel like 3 minutes every time.
The producing was so good that they only needed a background, some props and only 2 great actors to pull off one of the most captivating conversations I have ever heard
Absolutely! It was perfection!!!
The Hollywood romcom goons should watch this and realize that they don't need all those fancy locations, big actors and formulaic writings... Magic can be created in one shot.
Pen Muni see the film Destination Wedding with Keanu Reeves and Winona Ryder. Two people meet during a destination wedding, one is the groom's brother, the other is his ex.
They are the only people who can be heard during the entire movie, everyone else is background noise. Most scenes are shot exactly like this, fixed camera long takes.
For me, this film was a true gift. Many years ago, I had an experience--at a friend's wedding--that was stunningly like this. The conversation was a bit different, but the spontaneous kiss was as lovely as any moment in my life. Thank you for capturing that memory so perfectly.
So what's the update with the wedding guy?
This was so awkward, adorable, and absolutely real. Brilliant acting from the both of them and I kinda want to see more.
The female character made me feel she's hilarious. The male is as effective. Good script, great acting. A nice thing off to a good start. Wish this short film was developed into a full romantic movie.
YES ! I felt the same way. I would love to see this as a movie or a series. Their chemistry was amazing.
To me it was a full romantic film. Thank you, algorithm. This was lovely.
Exactly, I so wanna see this in like a series.
I agree...would love to see the rest of this movie!!!
So u should watch before's trilogy
This Omeleto thing is a revelation. I had no idea there were all these great shorts just floating out there!
Same here, can’t stop watching them
aafster life I concur
Just discovered these, made youtube 20 times better
I know right! This is my new Netflix!
I just discovered Omeleto today. For the past hour Ive been Omeletoing non stop.
Ive probably watched this 20-25 times. Wow, great writing by Joe Gillette, fantastic acting by Devin Kelley and Joe Gillette (very realistic). Well done. Bravo!
A million likes. The actor, writer and director is Joe Gillette, same guy. Great video. Great Performance. Just 2 people so you are wholly invested in them without any interruption/disturbance.
FANTASTIC! Every second is magical! Great script, acting, directing and editing! A little gem of a film! They should be famous! Such talent!
i love how the background music changes as the conversation progresses.
ps i only noticed when i watched it the 23rd time
Kanu Favour Well, I now have a great excuse to watch this all over again!
I don't even remember how much i watch this
Name the last song plss? :(
superb food great food good and yummy yummy burger yummy yummy food and good prices and food was good but the burger was so yummy
@@hoowoo9609 "Are you happy with him" written and performed by Jake Porter
And it ends with her saying “I do”. Loved this. Great acting.
That actually didn't connect with me until now. Thanks a bunch!
This should be mandatory viewing for all single people so they would know how "making a connection" and "hitting it off" really feels.
NOW I NEED A WHOLE MOVIE
No, first love isn't the best! The last love is the best!
I agree.
@Ilana Mutual feeling Ilana
i hope so
why cant first and last be the same ?
You're implying that the last one, will be the one till death...But what if your last love ended when you were 29 and you had everything you wanted and it still didn't worked. Now, 9 years of horsing around. All my friends are married, got kids and are way too busy for me. The confidence of youth is gone, time still leaps forwards and way more quickly than I want to admit. I've been with a lot of women, loved some of em. But for me, as of now, first love is still the best because the last one still hurts like a gunshot through and through my heart. Cheers!!
Her back must hurt from carrying this conversation
Oh shut up😂
🤣🤣🤣
Yeah, she did all the job
🤣🤣👍🏻👍🏻
Carry core players are really something.
The fact that I can relate with both the characters at its own different levels, amazes me. Everything about this film is a beauty. ✨
The fact I was uncomfortable with them pretending to be awkward shows what great actors they are, this was so good.
The wonderful thing about sci-fi shorts, they let you imagine strange new worlds that are hard to conceive, like this alternate dimension where attractive women hit on shy guys who sit in corners at social events
He's not really a shy guy. He was the best man at the wedding, so if anything, he stood out in the event and was very social for the majority of it.
@@skyweeeeee You can stand out and be social for your best friend's wedding and still be shy. It's not like you stop being shy the second you talk to a couple people.
@@dreambrother16 well, the fact remains that the reason she "hit on him" was because she had something to say after hearing his best man speech first, not because he was a random "shy guy" sitting in a corner at a party. That was the point I was trying to make.
That happens, but the guy isn't shy mostly and isn't into her either.
...and don't have boyfriends.
This so real I was feeling like a stalker listening to their convo
Who else keeps coming back to this?
