BOYS LIKE YOU is a powerful, mysteriously tense compelling film that creates more questions from the audience than answers and that is a good thing. Films today need to create conversations from the audience and BOYS LIKE US does just that.
The cinematography is excellent, the framing of each shot adds to the tenseness and depth of the story. This isn’t just about the outward elements, but the extreme closeups are used to take us inside the minds and hearts of the characters.
The acting of Lindsay and Liam is superb as it comes across as natural, not forced. Again, you feel every emotion they portray onscreen, a power that draws the audience into their story and doesn’t let you go.
BOYS LIKE US is an excellent short film and has all the elements of being a top award winning film.
