This put me in mind of a neighbor I had once. She was fresh out of prison, and determined not to like me, always cursing me under her breath. She lived upstairs, and I knew that whenever I cooked or baked, the aroma wafted up to her... One day I fixed her a plate and had my sons, six and eight years old at the time take it up to her. They were shocked and my fiancé said, why bother, you know she doesn't like you. I said I know. Then, whenever I cooked something special, or baked a treat, I would send some up to Barbara. She began to speak to me, always a nice greeting. My man told her we were getting married, and she told him, you're a lucky man. What a sweet, beautiful woman. When she passed away, her children told me that she always thought highly of me. We need to do things for others for the sake of doing them, not because someone "deserves" it, or because they're so nice. Some of the meanest people are some of the most hurt people...they need our kindness more than anyone. I love how this story portrays that...we're always looking to be rewarded for the things we do. But to me it's rewarding to help someone who would never ask for it.

@M1dfielder Місяць тому

That was lovely of you. And very rewarding. But I think the government didn't make people afraid enough, nor early enough. It was far worse than they reported. Watch the mini series "Breathless", where doctors and nurses got fired if they told the public just how bad it was. They had to choose who would die because the hospitals were ill prepared and ill equipped. I started lockdown weeks before the official lockdown. Left my job as soon as the first cases arose in Ireland where I live because I kept an eye on China and Italy. For over a year I only allowed 3 people inside my house and sprayed everything after they left. If everyone else had been encouraged to do that in the early stages, millions of lives might have been saved. 7 million and that's only the reported cases. 😢

This was a wonderful story. I think the young man was very patient and caring about the old man I'm guessing in part because he's lonely too? I would have liked to have known what happened to the old man. It would be nice if the old man got well and the friendship continued. But nice to see the how they each changed for the better because of their encounters. I was really drawn in because of how well crafted this movie was. Please keep making more movies.

The film is so captivating and light-hearted, it captures such a delicate time of the pandemic and brings so much hope with it. I like that it shows a bit of what the old man's late wife left for him in terms of fond memories and how that repeats itself in the young male's character after he passes away. His memory stays and so does his small but significant legacy in the young man's life. This is really touching as it is a way of reminding us to keep the ones we lost in our hearts and minds.

@corinthosruiz745 3 місяці тому

I really liked this short film because I think there is a very strong message on it, and this is how our lives can be completely affected by other people when we are in touch, and when this kind of connection can be done, we can take the best things from people for being better ourselves or for appreciating different points of views about living, according to our experience or our particular circumstances at each age. In this story both of the main characters could take positive things from each other, the elder man was able to change his manner of seeing the life, being more polite and patient and enjoying the company of someone else. And the young guy was able to learn important things from the years of experience of the old man. This film is without doubt and adorable and simple but overall a great touching story.

Patience is a virtue hey- loved that the film developed those rare virtues over time and that the essence- to hold into those values no matter what the emotional obstacles are encountered- mattered. The quiet emphasis of persistence was well rested in the hands of the lad- when the old geyser began to reflect in his wife it seems those very values held true- such a holiday from egocentrism. I feel like I’ve had a shower in minty spritzered sunlight. Thank you everyone for engaging in a little light relief- here’s to holding steady- and believing that goodness is a lifeline.

Great storey telling - as a writer it’s great to see such a well executed example of the ‘show, don’t tell’ rule.

Lovely film. Touching and poignant. I can relate to this on a personal level. A young father shopped for me during the pandemic. I shopped, too, for my husband and myself, but I tried not to go very often. When the wife emailed me to ask for a list, I always kept it pretty short: 10 to 12 items. But I often asked him to get kitty litter and things that were a bit heavy, as he was young and strong. I appreciated their help so much! They have now moved to another state, and the pandemic is pretty much over.

What a wonderful treat to stumble upon this delightful film just days after complaining that too many films have ignored the pandemic altogether. The interactions were perfectly scripted and superbly acted. Thanks for creating this film to make the world a better place in thirteen minutes. - Yes, I know it took you a lot longer to make it!
