CGiii Comment

The opening credits are a horror...new software?!?

It's a gay short film...so, naturally, the characters have to kiss as soon as they appear...just in case the audience is in any doubt! Unnecessary and annoying.

Then... listening to a cute-but-dim character go on about his need for an open relationship while being usurped by his far-more-intelligent boyfriend...is torture. Demonstrating, unequivocally, that gay men think only with their dicks.

The torture continues...with the last line and the last shot...gruesome.
