Waste of time

Slow pace in the most part of the movie.

A Masterpiece!

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

"Serene Hunter" is a 14-minute live action short film from 2007, so this one has its 10th anniversary this year. It was written and directed by Jason Bushman and he is also one of the cast members in here actually. One of the main reasons why this short movie is not totally forgotten by now is probably that it is included on the very first edition of Boys on Film and having seen many short films that are included on these DVDs I must say that this film here is pretty much the epitome of an entry to this series. Mediocre acting, weak writing and steamy gay sex scenes to cover for the lack of quality story-telling. I never cared for any of the characters in here, their interactions felt fake and unauthentic and the filmmaker's shot at emotional depth went completely wrong. It's not a surprise basically nobody who worked on this project has managed to make it big in the last decade. If you still want to check it out, don't say you haven't been warned. And make sure you get subtitles unless you are fluent in French as this is the language the film is in. Major thumbs-down from me though. Don't watch.

One of seven gay shorts on the "S is for Sexy" DVD collection from Wolfe Video. It's in French with English subtitles. It has nudity and sexual situations, and all the men are incredibly hot. Written, directed, and starring Jason Bushman, it has several themes; first, it's a debate over monogamy vs. open relationship, and also asks whether old, longtime friends should/would change their friendship if they sleep together. Unlike many other films that bring up these issues, this one is short and sweet -- thirteen minutes. Co-stars Eric Debets and Jonathan Stringat. Odd that the cast member with the smallest role here (Flannan Obé) appears to have the longest resume in films/TV, but it all works quite well. Also some good street scenes of Paris. Fun little shortie.
