Some More (2018)

I liked the first short I saw from Strongberry Productions so much, that I decided to buy a copy of this second short from Vimeo since it is not available for free. And by the way, I love sponsoring these great directors and producers doing such fine job with such limited resources and was happy paying the money - and would have purchased other shorts from the same production company in the future.

WARNING!!!

However, the Vimeo website clearly indicated... languages: Korean and English... and I trusted them! But to our surprise, when I started up my home theater to watch this movie I discovered the english subtitles only appear on my iPad, and computer and not on the home entertainment screen in front of my friends.

Happily, me and my friends do not watch movies on iPads with earbuds while riding the bus, or at the school library.

Sadly, we do not speak Korean either and relied on the website’s description of services believing its subtitles would be available on t.v. monitors and large screen systems.

Therefore, we have had to make different plans for our afternoon of fun and relaxation, now lying by the pool on a drafty and overcast day where chilled wine makes absolutely no sense; thank you. This was NOT a very pleasant beginning for what has turned out to be a very short commercial engagement.

We obviously watched the short with a Korean friend present who translated the dialogue; but, I will never again purchase any other film from Strongberry Productions or Vimeo. I do want to warn future viewers who purchase a copy of this movie (who do not enjoy the pleasure of speaking Korean) that you will have to watch it within the small confines of an iPad… which is perfectly fine for some, but not for others, and should have been specified in the Vimeo website.

• a film from strongberry with a duration of 27 min
• so here's the story, nagbike si Dong Soo ta's nasemplang siya and nakarating siya sa farm nina In Pyo at Sang Bae. Nando'n lang siya hanggang gumaling sugat niya, and Dong Soo found out na gay si In Pyo dahil sa box na may lamang condom (??) tsaka poster ng "Long Time No See" (series from strongberry, top 1 fav ko na prinoduce ng sb). So do'n na nagsimula na magkaroon sila ng feelings at makabuo ng rs.
• btw, natawa ko sa entrance ni In Pyo do'n sa intro, ang shala ng pasok with maangas na bg music hahahalol. gusto ko lang din i-note 'yong pagsneak peek ni in pyo sa bike short/cycling ni dongsoo, pansin ko 'yon ikaw ha 0_o??
• i found epic sa pagbagsak ni Dong Soo sa farm. And i loved it that he came back in the end!
• 5/10
