Name: Little Boy Blues
Genre: Short
Released: 2005-07-25
Duration: 22 min
Rating: 6.2
Cast: Malcolm Gets, Adam Bloch, Paul Denniston

Very haunting short film about loneliness. Malcolm Gets stars as a man desperate for companionship. Seeking it in a bar, as we all know, is a mixed bag. In this case the object of his desire is an equally desperate drug addict. Every time Zeno asks for some new form of drug, that desperation builds until mistakes are made. Gets is always watchable, here he walks down a path many men can relate to. I felt so uncomfortable knowing Zeno needed to escape via some drug, eventually settling on poppers as his only means to get through the sex act, leaving Gets even more lonelier than before the experience. The painting of his dead lover watching the entire act was unnerving. 

If you haven't seen Steve and Adam, (which Gets steals) you're a loser.

The short form refers to creative works characterized by their brevity and concise storytelling. Unlike full-length feature films, short films have a running time of less than 45 minutes, while TV shorts have a running time of less than 22 minutes.
