the call back with the ukelele. you used sound like it was a truly rare and costly effort so when she hears that confirmation of her sanity and fellowship it drops like a hammer. was a masterful use of emotion and senses. that is what cinema should do.
There is so much delight throughout the whole piece, it is hard to choose only one highlight. If I have to, I’ll also choose the ukulele connection at the end. But truly, there are so many brilliant layers- choice of colors; small, humorous details; the balance of purity and rawness; a clear storyline and delicate character development expressed without any spoken word. Truly brilliant!
Honestly, my favorite part was the storyline and the fact that it went how I wanted it to go. He was a great guy, she didn't break his heart, we got to see what happened after purgatory, and they both found peace in the end. Sometimes it's just nice to see a good story play out as you want it to without all the twists and drama.
I hate to hear that. And I hope that nothing but love and happiness finds you for the rest of your days. And it is amazing what weird little things like this can do for comfort.
@@tomkalbanese I went to RIT and many of my friends were film & video majors. I love films like this. I especially like from the point where he said he would keep her company on... that's where I really get invested.
I think the part that moved me the most, was when Claire asked if he was real. And Gerald replied "sort of." The honesty in his statement was devastating. It was hard to pick, but what an amazing little movie. I think I'd also have to say the trope of how much a transformative difference friendship can make. Thanks guy.
Thanks so much for sharing this, Luke. That moment always played well at festivals. I think it's both the mixture of humor and sadness in it. So glad you enjoyed and thank you for taking the time to watch and comment 😊🙏😈
This was pretty tear jerking. It makes me understand human connection a little bit more. I love how his everyday events got better because he felt better, not because anything has really changed, only he has changed. It's a perspective worth showing because our time with everyone is short in the grand scheme of things.
I am sure it is the truth. When I go out feeling good, I meet nice people, get smiled at, and the traffic lights turn green as I walk up on them. Or some interesting add is stuck to the pole. On other days, I am often glad to return home alive. When one is freshly in love, gravity becomes wholly unreal.
This had no dialogue for 16:30 and I watched the whole thing, Im guessing all the other commentors did as well. Its a rare talent to hold someones attention for that long without dialogue, and do it well. You also touched on a hard topic for a lot of people and brought them a feeling of happiness, what great gifts all the people involved in this have to share 👍
It had a ton of dialogue, just no speech. I find funny people commenting there was no dialogue. Seems for some dialogue means only vocal communication.
From the dictionary definition of dialogue: a conversation between two or more people as a feature of a book, play, or film. From the dictionary definition of conversation: a talk, especially an informal one, between two or more people, in which news and ideas are exchanged. "she picked up the phone and held a conversation in French" Dictionary definition of talk: Speak in order to give information or express ideas or feelings; converse or communicate by spoken words. "the two men talked" Do I need to go any further??
This is an excellent short. Very original & well done. It's a little funny and a little serious. I love the idea of th Ouija board being a text message with someone in purgatory, just doing their day to day job.
Thank you for watching and sharing! That ending took forever to nail down. I think once we realized it didn't have to wrap everything up in a neat bow (just like life), it kind of fell into place. 💜
I lost my father 8 months ago. I can't help but miss him. This beautiful piece of art you've done...man...what can I say...for more reasons than I can write, thank you.
Right now - I can relate to this. I am currently in Purgatory. Just passing thru. On my way to Brazil in January. Thank the gods. But purgatory today. Thanks Tom and Co for the light-hearted waiting room entertainment. I feel better.
Like Klondike I didn't think about no dialogue because emotions spoke louder than words here. I inherited 3 ukuleles from a buddy whose last days were much worse than this purgatory. My best way for me to honor his life is to play the ukulele and pass them on to my grandchild.
When the kid at the pearly gates broke his Quiji board, the pain & devastation on his face mirrored my sadness at this cruel twist. I was afraid that he would do something to get back into purgatory in order to reconnect with Claire... imagine the relief & gratitude I felt when Claire left him that ukulele (which I figured might have just been a joke he'd told her to make her laugh) & was able to hear him plucking away at it!! 10/10, would recommend
Wow, this film is so creative and touching - it had me feeling all kinds of emotions in such a short space of time, even without any spoken dialogue! I've never seen this concept done before and it's such a refreshing take on "speaking to those beyond" with a heartwarming story. It gave me 'short film before a Pixar movie' cosy feels. - I just adore it! I've been getting into short film content on RUclips as I'm awaiting a major surgery and don't get out much lol, but I can 'hand on plan planchette' say this is the best one I've seen so far and will take a hell of a lot to beat!
Wow, thank you very much for the kind words! So happy you enjoyed the film -- we were definitely going for Pixar-esque vibes! Best wishes with the surgery, and please let me know if you come across any other great films! 🙏
This was perfect. Script, execution, even the color grading. All worked together to create a touching, humorous, moving story. You deserve every award for this. Thank you for creating it.
Wow, thank you. We all put a lot of effort and time into it -- like you said, from the scriptwriting to the color correction. Very happy you noticed and enjoyed. Thanks so much 🙏😊
Even spirits need to love and communicate. 🥰 Glad to see this... gave me the fuzzies. Loneliness and sadness, can be hard to overcome. GLAD love here exists.
This concept is so cool! The actors really brought out the feelings of being lost and finding a place to belong. We all can relate to that. I'm definitely going to share this video with my family and friends. Keep up the great work!
Thank you mate! Good job! I enjoyed every second of the play! It has everything - drama, comedy, thriller and what not. Glad that there are “sort of humans” (lol) who still have that touch of honest representation what we all “sort of living” feel. Brutally on the spot
Very well done! You can tell a story without dialogue! Well written, well directed, couldn't find fault with any part of it. Thoroughly entertained! Thank you!
A wonderful story! Simple, yet beautifully done! And 'yes' it took me longer than I'd like to admit to realise that there was no spoken dialogue - the acting, and the subtitles were just that good!
I don't think I've ever seen a better short film. From concept to story to acting to filming, it was brilliant, funny, sad, heartwarming, and absolutely charming. Thank you!
Brilliant! The story, the acting, the editing - all wonderful. You can feel the love that went into this project from start to finish. I laughed most when Gerald got into the 'metal groove' and the elevator couple were in passionate embrace, and was utterly delighted when Gerald received the flowers. Tragicomedy in the best sense of the word. BRAVO!
Omigosh! The is marvelous! There is no weak spot in the storytelling and it totally engrosses the viewer. We get carried along the highs and lows along with the characters and become invested in their story. Thank you for sharing this with us! ⚘
Compelling and heartfelt, mesmerising and original.....brave to use the board and purgatory to tell a completely different and uplifting tale about friendship and love.
Ad a former gerald i was lucky enough to meet my claire and bow we are engaged and happily living together with our puppy and a nice little cottage by the lake. When things look bleak try to remember that your happiness is out there. Whether youre happy or miserable, this too shall pass. Enjoy it while its good and always prepare for the worst.
Best short I have seen in quite awhile. A little love is all any of us needs. ❤️ Also we will be reunited with loved ones that have moved on ahead of us and this short reminded me.🙏🏼🙏🏼❤️
You are an incredible independent filmmaker. The story wraps around your heart effortlessly. The make up costumes props set all perfect. I look ahead to more of your insightful work. Just excellent
I think the saddest thing in this, is that every place is the same. The daily grind, carry’s over to the afterlife as well. Really amazing work, I didn’t notice the lack of dialog until almost the end.👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🎉
@tomkalbanese one of his greatest films. With his mother in labor, his parents are on the way to the hospital when they are hit by a bus and he is born in the back seat. 4 passengers on the bus who died in the crash find their souls inexplicably linked to him.
You touched my heart even without saying a single word, i was sitting in the office and watching during lunch break, what a perfect match. Great acting, visuals and storytelling. Pls keep up the good work 🥰
Excellent Film. Loved the story. I read into the film that Gerald likely ended himself because of a heartbreak, and thus freed himself from purgatory by helping Claire work through hers. Very heartwarming and compelling.
I fell in love with your genious creator mind! ❤ This paranormal, life after death, different dimensions, intelligent sweet love-story is next level bullshit!!! ❤ Thank you sooo much for sharing this! 🙏
this is one of the best films I saw in a very long time. I cant even find words to describe it. This goes right next to The Mystery of the Leaping Fish, Kin-dza-dza!, Big Lebowski ... thank you!
How has this not gotten more views? Bad algorithms! Masterpiece honestly some of the best content I have watched on my entire time on the platform what a gripping and moving story
I don’t know why the pope got rid of purgatory I quite liked the idea of an in between place where eventually you can go to heaven, it’s a shame it might be all or nothing
It's pure treasure! Congrats for make me feel a lot of emotions in such a little time. Loved your art and want to see more films like this! 😊😊👏👏👏👏👏👏❤❤❤❤❤❤
I lost my girlfriend 30 days ago. She died due to high blood pressure and mistreatment at the hospital. my heart is so broken. I miss her so much, i hope to meet her in my dream. but finally, I found out that she was busy doing internships and orientation meetings in the new world. Thank you very much for making a short film that calms my heart and reduces my guilt. greetings and big hug from Indonesia
This was an incredible story and the cinematography was brilliantly shot. What a beautifully done piece. I absolutely loved the acting as well, so much conveyed without dialogue ❤ well done everyone! I can tell everyone put their all into it ❤
I don't think I will ever forget this. This is so close to a love story that I have just experienced. The barriers were too great but the connection and joy I felt when she messaged were perfectly shown here. I felt like I was in purgatory too and she gave me hope and laughter. Wish we could have made it work. I would have given my soul on toast for that woman. Maybe when we both reach the after life x
What a beautifully thought out piece wonderfully performed … an absolute joy to watch very powerful. Without words. I love the bit where on the itinerary of heavenly arrival is a welcome concert with Prince & Mozart what are pairing that would be 💎 thank you much shall watch again deep gratitude 🙏🏾🥇💐🔮

How did she know which grave to visit?
Just checked out Charming. I’ve subscribed. The algorithm elves are being kind to me!!!

Wow! You know it's a great film when you don't even realize there's no dialog. I wish I could give it a thousand likes.
So happy you enjoyed. Thank you for watching and commenting :)
"It was all in your head" 😉
I actually didn't even realize there was no actual dialog.
I… only noticed it when I read it here😮
It's so weird.. It didn't even dawn on me there was no dialog.. the film was so good❤
I lost my only son 6 months ago, this piece was oddly comforting. I laughed, I cried, I laughed again ❤ bravo man...simply bravo
I'm so sorry to hear. Thank you for watching and for the kind words, much love to you 💜
Sending love
Condolences , even tho it’s means without understanding but dis jus broke me , dats insane . I hope n pray u n urs ❤
I hate to hear that. And I hope that nothing but love and happiness finds you for the rest of your days. And it is amazing what weird little things like this can do for comfort.
Love and healing to you. ❤
Here's your Oscar. You made me cry. Thank you.
Thank you for the kind words and for watching 🙏💜
I'm a former combat instructor. THIS DID NOT MAKE ME CRY! (sobbing)
Haha, thank you so much Dave! 😊🙏
Same. Just got some shrapnel in my eye.

This should have millions of views, truly one of the best films I ever got the joy to watch
Thank you for the kind words, I really appreciate them and thank you for watching 😊
This is beautiful. Thank you for allowing the public to see this and reflect on their losses and grief. And, the music. ‘Chef’s kiss’
Thank you for the wonderful words. I love the music, too 😊

Thank you for the kind words. "A little funny and a little serious" was our goal. 😊🙏💜
A very creative spin on boy gets girl, boy loses girl, boy wins girl back again! In heaven!
Favorite part? The resolution! The implied acknowledgment of one another, although each exists apart from the other
Thank you for watching and sharing! That ending took forever to nail down. I think once we realized it didn't have to wrap everything up in a neat bow (just like life), it kind of fell into place. 💜
This is one hell of a beautiful story. Bravo!
Thank you so much! 😊
I lost my father 8 months ago. I can't help but miss him. This beautiful piece of art you've done...man...what can I say...for more reasons than I can write, thank you.
This might be one of the best shorts i have seen in ages. Great in every aspect.
Wow, thank you for taking the time to watch and leave your kind comment. Very happy you enjoyed 😈🙏
15 minutes of sheer brilliance! Had me laughing, crying, reflecting, thinking about all my dear ones up there...thank you friend. Simply beautiful ❤
Thank you so much for your kind words! This made my day 😊
This was really good. Sometimes just showing kindness can change someone's world.
100% 💜
I saved this short awhile ago. Glad to see it pop up again. Loved watching this story unfold.
It is So sweet.❤
Thank you so much! So happy you enjoyed it 😊🙏
Right now - I can relate to this. I am currently in Purgatory. Just passing thru. On my way to Brazil in January. Thank the gods. But purgatory today. Thanks Tom and Co for the light-hearted waiting room entertainment. I feel better.
the moment she heard him play the ukulele , She knew he was ok
Yes. Thanks so much for watching 😊🙏💜

I’m so glad the story kept moving forward!
Dating life is so rough, it’s got us dating the dead now. 😂
This was outstanding!!! I loved every single moment and detail. Truly a work of genius. 🥰💕
It seems like heaven is as sad & lonely without a loving partner 💔
Haha I love it. Thanks so much for the kind words and for watching! 😊🙏
Well said 💜

Thanks for watching, me too 😊
Awwww... You made me cry.
That was really, really good. As my Latin Teacher would say: "Laudate! Laudate! Magnificat!"

Thank you so much for watching! Glad you enjoyed ☺️
That was just outstanding, thank you.
Very happy you enjoyed it! 🙏
true story telling isn't done by dialogue but by raw emotion. this beautiful story brought upon so many this morning. thank you .
Thank you mate!
Good job! I enjoyed every second of the play! It has everything - drama, comedy, thriller and what not.
Glad that there are “sort of humans” (lol) who still have that touch of honest representation what we all “sort of living” feel.
Brutally on the spot
This is spectacular! Really liked the story, and loved the music. Especially loved the litttle melody on the uke, and how it managed to carry over.
Thanks so much! Our composer, Charles Harvey Spears, is a legend. The film wouldn't be what it is without his amazing work. 🙏
dont know how this came on my feed but I can see your growth coming... nice to be here early !!! wonderful work ..I am sure everyone will agree
Very well done! You can tell a story without dialogue!
Well written, well directed, couldn't find fault with any part of it. Thoroughly entertained!

A really sweet short film. I liked the bold move of no dialogue. Y'all still made an interesting, compelling story.
Best short I have seen in quite awhile. A little love is all any of us needs. ❤️ Also we will be reunited with loved ones that have moved on ahead of us and this short reminded me.🙏🏼🙏🏼❤️
Originality, that's what we need!
You are an incredible independent filmmaker.

Just excellent
Thank you so much, Richard. Glad you liked the film. Hope to make more films in the near future 😈😊🙏
Wonderful work, brought tears to my eyes. Also great font selection.
Thank you very much! Happy you liked it -- that font took a lot of time deciding on and implementing, so glad you noticed as well :)
Im not a religious guy, but that was beautiful.
Thanks so much, really appreciate you watching and taking the time to comment 😊
THIS WAS WONDERFUL ... THANK YOU ! ------->
Haha thank you so much! 🙏😊
Oh, I loved this movie so much. I'm reminded that we are never truly separated from those on the other side
What a beautiful film, I watched transfixed for the entirety. Just 👌🏻❤️
I think the saddest thing in this, is that every place is the same. The daily grind, carry’s over to the afterlife as well.
Really amazing work, I didn’t notice the lack of dialog until almost the end.👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🎉
No. No, it doesn't. Don't ever, ever think that.
That was a wonderful love story. I smiled, I shed tears.
Thanks so much. So glad you enjoyed 😊
This was so cute. I loved the chemistry between the two people who never even met each other. That is a sign of a great romance.
Great story. Touching. Don't see this hardly ever anymore.
The overall feeling was similar to the Robert Downey Jr. movie "Heart and Souls"
I've never seen that one -- thanks for bringing to my attention, I'll check it out! 🙏
@tomkalbanese one of his greatest films. With his mother in labor, his parents are on the way to the hospital when they are hit by a bus and he is born in the back seat. 4 passengers on the bus who died in the crash find their souls inexplicably linked to him.
You touched my heart even without saying a single word, i was sitting in the office and watching during lunch break, what a perfect match. Great acting, visuals and storytelling. Pls keep up the good work 🥰
This was perfection
I shed a tear at this, this was so good!
So happy you liked it, thank you for watching! 🙏😊
A wonderful and moving tribute to the struggles we all face and to the ones who help us get through them.
*_An absolutely delightful story!_*
Excellent Film. Loved the story.
I read into the film that Gerald likely ended himself because of a heartbreak, and thus freed himself from purgatory by helping Claire work through hers.
Very heartwarming and compelling.
Absolutely amazing.
Thank you for watching! :) 🙏
Wow! Perfectly done. Not a word spoken or needed! Incredibly moving and pulls at the strings that bind us to this and the next.
The year 2037 is gonna be dope. Btw, I’m pretty sure I saw this before.
Haha! Thanks for noticing 😊
I can't tell you why, but I loved this. No dialogue, but they say so much. LOL! Amazingly good film!
I fell in love with your genious creator mind! ❤ This paranormal, life after death, different dimensions, intelligent sweet love-story is next level bullshit!!! ❤ Thank you sooo much for sharing this! 🙏
Thank you for the kind words! So happy you enjoyed it :)
this is one of the best films I saw in a very long time. I cant even find words to describe it. This goes right next to The Mystery of the Leaping Fish, Kin-dza-dza!, Big Lebowski ...
thank you!
Lovely. Thank you!
Thank you so much for watching! ☺️💜
How has this not gotten more views? Bad algorithms! Masterpiece honestly some of the best content I have watched on my entire time on the platform what a gripping and moving story
Outstanding story and concept. I love this horror short. Good job all around keep up the good work
Thanks so much! 🙏😊
@tomkalbanese you are welcome and I'm looking forward to seeing what you have in the future
I've watched this a few times over the years.Always makes me happier
Excellent!
So happy you liked it! Thanks for watching 💜
OMG. That was beautiful. So touching, inspiring and most of all human. Thanks to everyone involved for creating and sharing it. Amazing.
They even have Deathbuck's Rainforest Cyanide Coffee in Hell !
You've got an excellent eye! 🙏😊
This was perfect. I was hooked 2 minutes in. And honestly got a little choked up at the end. Loved all the little details too. Superbly executed!
I don’t know why the pope got rid of purgatory I quite liked the idea of an in between place where eventually you can go to heaven, it’s a shame it might be all or nothing
I agree, I like the idea too 😊
Purgatory is now
It's pure treasure! Congrats for make me feel a lot of emotions in such a little time. Loved your art and want to see more films like this! 😊😊👏👏👏👏👏👏❤❤❤❤❤❤
I lost my girlfriend 30 days ago. She died due to high blood pressure and mistreatment at the hospital.
my heart is so broken. I miss her so much, i hope to meet her in my dream.
but finally, I found out that she was busy doing internships and orientation meetings in the new world.
Thank you very much for making a short film that calms my heart and reduces my guilt.
greetings and big hug from Indonesia
You doing ok now, Alfredo?
Prince & Mozart!!! Genius! Fabulous piece of art! LOVED IT
It’s unusual I will watch a video without skipping forward at all. Watched this straight through, wish it was longer, well done good people.
uh... Sir.. I'm bawling my eyes out! Excellent. Thank You beyond words.
Wow. I was truly moved and delighted at the same time. thank you!
Awesomeness...favorite part was with the blue boss and his Starbucks coffee showing up.
Excellent idea for paranormal timez,Ive never fort of the idea that the demon's could be on a job on the other side of the curtain.
Thanks so much! Yes, I thought it was a cool idea -- the old adage of making the films/telling the stories you want to see! 😈
This was an incredible story and the cinematography was brilliantly shot. What a beautifully done piece. I absolutely loved the acting as well, so much conveyed without dialogue ❤ well done everyone! I can tell everyone put their all into it ❤
THIS IS AMAZING! I hope your Subscriber count SKYROCKETS man!
What an absolute talent to be able to convey so much emotion.
What a gem of a movie! I thoroughly enjoyed seeing this!
Bravo, thank you for such a wonderful catharsis; I cried like a baby.
I don't think I will ever forget this. This is so close to a love story that I have just experienced. The barriers were too great but the connection and joy I felt when she messaged were perfectly shown here. I felt like I was in purgatory too and she gave me hope and laughter. Wish we could have made it work. I would have given my soul on toast for that woman. Maybe when we both reach the after life x

I love the bit where on the itinerary of heavenly arrival is a welcome concert with Prince & Mozart what are pairing that would be 💎 thank you much shall watch again deep gratitude 🙏🏾🥇💐🔮
