Short Film 2 - 'I Love You'

This short film is three minutes long. 
The characters include a guy called Tyler and his girlfriend Catherine, the film is set in a small apartment only using three settings, the bedroom, bathroom and balcony. The film starts with them two on a bed with soft sound of romantic guitars playing in the background. Tyler tells her she's the best girlfriend ever and asks if she wants to 'do it'. Catherine replies 'yes i do'. As they go to have sex, she stops him and says' Wait, Tyler, I love you'. The music stops suddenly as tyler asks what she says.
The comedy starts as Tyler begins to panick about what to do. He goes into the bathroom and whipes his face with water. He talsk to himself in the mirror about what to do and how much he wats sex.
As the audience wonder about what he is going to do, he then comes out of the bathroom and says her name, there is no answer so he shouts, the next time he stamps his foot and she looks. This gives a comical side to her not being able to hear. He says 'I love Jews' to make her believe he is telling her he loves her.
This goes on for a little while until she finally realises what he is saying. She then gets angry and he finally says 'I love you', falls off the balcony and smacks his head.

Although the theme is very simple, it is also funny so you are more likely to remember this. This film also gives the audience the chance to relate to the characters as this happens in everyday relationships. This type of comody is more suitabvle for males who are middle-aged. 
Overall I thought the film was very well thought out, the combination of love and comedy went very well together and had a surprising ending to it.
