Dies und das:

Writer/director Sean Ellis wrote the script for the feature length version in 7 days. Principal photography started 6 weeks later as it was the only time that all the cast from the original short film were available.

Pannen:

Abfolgefehler: At the beginning of the football match, Jenkins is wearing a shirt with the number 4 on the back. In at least one scene during the match, the shirt has a 5 on the back instead.

Dialogzitate:

Ben Willis: Crush. It's funny how the same word for the feeling of disappointment can be used for the feeling of attraction. The Oxford English Dictionary states one of the meanings for the word crushed as "a strong and unreasoning, but transitory attachment."

What is beauty, what is to behold?

There are few films that truly cause the minds of its viewers to wander and transcend from one thought to another. This film inspired me to take a second to think about what a second really is and to cherish moments for what they are. Its a breath of fresh air just waiting to be taken in and surely those with intellect just waiting to be toyed with will surely agree. Being a citizen of the United States, I am rarely exposed to films that contain intelligent dialogue and inspiring acting. Unfortunately my country is filled with bumbling fools who appreciate things exploding and pointless violence more than a beautiful story. Alas, films such as this one remind me that there is still hope in this dreary world and for that i am grateful.
