A Silent Night
Posted on 25 December, 2020This Queer short film review was the bonus short review for my “Queer Christmas Shorts for 2020” post.

Stillman’s Portrait
Posted on 2 January, 2021A painter struggling to create a new showpiece, missing the key to unlock the portrait in his mind.

Will You Merry Me?
Posted on 22 December, 2022[“Will You Merry Me?” is the fifth film of my “5 Queer Holiday Shorts for 2022” post. To read the previous review, “Adam and Steve“, click HERE.] What a wonderful queer holiday short film! Directed and cowritten by Kevin Walls (along with Donald Cameron), “Will You Merry Me?” is a cute & romantic short that takes the nervous situation of popping the question along with the annoyance of distracting text messages and tosses it all…
