I teach film making and I use this film regularly as an example of brilliance. Great writing, great performing, great directing, great POV, great theme. So very good.

I come back here every year. Warms my heart every time x

I absolutely adore this. There's heart-wrenching meaning, there's symbolism, there's recognisable points... I've shared this with so many of my friends. Honestly? I absolutely love this video. It's so... Well... It really hits the mark.

So absolutely moving and beautiful. I cried. Thank you so much for making this.

Truly a great film. This has to be one of the most entertaining and captivating shorts I've ever seen. I hope you guys win so I can see another film.

Awwww

This short film portrays perfectly the fact that you don't have to be rich, successful and competitive to have fun. Yes, his job isn't the most exciting and inspiring, but this guy makes it something amazing because he points out the little things that make a big difference. Amazing.

Just lovely. Beautifully written, acted, shot and edited.

"Most people don't see past the neon." This is brilliant. This whole film. I keep watching it, and every time I do, I can't keep from tears.

I cried. It actually moved me to tears. I've seen what this bad economy has done to people, robs them of their ability to appreciate how good they have it, but it also gives them opportunity to see the little things again and find hope in family, friends, and in love.
