God. As I sit here waiting for my partner of 24 years to get home from work here I am with tears rolling down my face. A beautiful story. Congratulations to the cast and crew. Just wonderful ❤🥰Craig - Australia
It starts when we're in the womb, listening to our mother's heart. If we're lucky enough to fall in love with someone trustworthy, the listening continues.
A young friend received a heart and wanted to meet the donor's survivors. Their only child passed from a brain aneurysm, and their child's heart saved his life. So, he adopted the donor's parents and they are now a part of his life. His close acquaintances tell how much he changed after receiving the new heart.
For some of us, this is reality. I lost my beautiful charming, kind and smart boyfriend 28 months ago. Missing is a way of living. Words cannot explain. My heart aches. And I can still hear him but it gets so lonely sometimes. Thank you so much for this wonderful, beautiful, one the best short films and close to my heart I ve ever seen. ❤
@@jeremyglazerchannel Thank you so much for your words. It does help when you can connect through grief with other people, films, songs... You are an amazing actor!, you either know grief or experience yourself or know love well... because in a way they are the same. Thank you again so much ❤️.
So sorry for the silence, the missing. I cannot imagine. At 69, I haven't had the joy and connectedness - the love - that many experience. This too is heart-breaking.
I had tears in my eyes at the end...... this was so well done. at first I thought Sean (?) had cheated on Scott.... but then it came out what really happened. wow!
Well done indeed, when we strangers are brought together by moments of stories like this, hope becomes a tangible reality,I am so touched my heart is most rich, I am in love with the unknown
I can relate to this. I've lost 2 significant others to AIDS and was hit by a car on my bicycle when he ran a red light. Waved to me as he drove off when he saw me get up.
it's so super beautiful, love does not distinguish whether one is this or that / it's simple love which encompasses everything in our universe, which is THE expression of PURE LOVE !!!
OMG, what an incredible movie!!! Crying through most of this, several times over the past year, watching over and over. How many lessons are in this clip!!?? 😢 💕
Very very happy and grateful this was in my feed. Such a touching and heartfelt story, tears where shed and smiles were on my face at times. A lovely story ❤️
Beautiful! One of the best shorts I have seen in years - well-written story, excellent production values, and terrific acting! And thank you for using a SAG-AFTRA contract, there should be more like you.
That was incredible! Finally someone dove deeper and showed all sides of organ donation. You couldn’t help but feel the heartbreak on one side and the hopes and dreams on the other side. Everyone should watch this whether your an organ donor or not. I wish it had been longer.. but regardless.. life changing. I’m going online and becoming an organ donor right now. After seeing this… you made the decision easy. Well done from beginning to end! Actors were incredible. Every part of this film was incredible. Thank you for making this film. This film takes your feeling on a wild roller coaster ride. Kleenex should sponsor this film!
To hear the film affected you so immensely and inspired you to donate goes beyond what I could have imagined. Thank you for these incredibly kind words and for signing up to be an organ donor. ❤
“Only 13 plus minutes, I can watch this now.” Crying in a Scissors and Scotch waiting for my partner to finish his hair and beard trim. 😭😭😭 Well done. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
It's incredible how much you can say in a short film! The movie is quite impactful. The actors are wonderful and so is the crew. Thank you and All the Bets for your future endeavors.
Man, that was one beautifully directed and acted short film !!! The don't forget your keys had me stumped at the beginning until it all came together towards the end. Bloody Brilliant !!!
wow, very well done @JeremyGlazer - it was only towards the end of the file that I realized those good bye comments were in his head ....very very moving. thank you
Reminds me of this movie in 2005. The husband was a doctor who never had time for his wife, then she died in a car accident. He became a paramedic and a few yesrs later, he found out that his dead wife's heart had been transplanted to another woman without his consent. He found out that the woman's husband had left her, and more surprisingly, they look exactly the same. Maybe it was to heal him or both of them, but he impersonated her husband and got close to the woman, celebrating every holiday he never got to spend with his dead wife in a week or so. But then the woman's heart started failing. She tried to have another surgery, but it didn't go well. In the end, she waited on her deathbed until her real husband came back to spend her last moments together. In the end, it turns out she knew the man wasn't her husband all along and left him a letter to thank him for everything he'd done for her in her husband's place and told him to move on as his wife would have wanted him to. It was sad and very touching.
A man here in the UK cycled the lenth of the country to raise money for a heart transplant charity. When he reached his destination he met a young woman who was there to let him listen to his daughters hesrt beating in her chest. I watched and wept as he wept too. And i wept at this little film.
Shocking that the motorist didn't stop to see if the cyclist was OK. In European countries it's a crime not stop to and render aid when you even see someone injured, whether you were in any way involved or not. Is there no such law in the US?
No creo que pueda hacerse un trasplante de corazón de un enfermo de cancer a otra persona. Deberían haber buscado otra enfermedad porque el guión es bastante bueno salvo esa enfermedad.
Hola! Muchas gracias por verlo y por la comentario! Hicimos una amplia investigación con profesionales médicos oncólogos al elaborar esta historia para que sea lo más fiel posible a la vida y hay casos en los que los pacientes con cáncer, dependiendo del tipo de cáncer y los tratamientos en los que sus órganos y su corazón aún pueden ser viables y donados. Además, según MidAmerica Transplant: Ya sea que una persona tenga o no antecedentes de cáncer, cada donación de órganos o tejidos es revisada cuidadosamente por un equipo de profesionales médicos en el momento de la muerte. Las biopsias se realizan sobre cualquier hallazgo inesperado, y las decisiones se toman caso por caso como parte de un riguroso proceso de detección.
@@jeremyglazerchannel Gracias por responderme. Espero no haberte molestado con mi comentario. No me expresé bien. Quería decir, como guionista que soy, que yo hubiera buscado otra enfermedad pero ahora después de tu aclaración estoy totalmente de acuerdo. Un saludo
@@rirogar2000 No hay necesidad de disculparse. Estoy agradecido por su interés en la película y me alegro de que hayamos podido hablar de ello. ¡Mis mejores deseos!
Hey, thanks for your comment! We did extensive research with oncologist medical professionals when crafting this story to make it as true to life as possible and there are cases where cancer patients, depending on type of cancer and treatments where their organs and heart can still be viable and donated. Also, according to MidAmerica Transplant: Whether or not a person has a history of cancer, each organ or tissue donation is carefully reviewed by a team of medical professionals at the time of death. Biopsies are performed on any unexpected findings, and decisions are made on a case-by-case basis as part of a rigorous screening process.
I agree. Usually someone needs to be cancer-free for years before donation. But if, for example, the cancer is a primary brain tumor with low risk of spreading outside the central nervous system, it might be possible? I'm curious why the screenwriter wanted to portray such a rare situation. It felt a little awkward to me. Maybe they had deeply personal reasons?
Well, that was... awkward. Isn't organ donation anonymous for this very reason? Also sentiments aside, a heart is just a piece of meat. What a person is is primarily in their brain.
I would love to see this concept expanding into a full feature length film. Beautiful story, wonderfully acted and eloquently delivered!
God. As I sit here waiting for my partner of 24 years to get home from work here I am with tears rolling down my face. A beautiful story. Congratulations to the cast and crew. Just wonderful ❤🥰Craig - Australia
What got me the most was the moment he listened to the heart of his beloved husband ... without his husband 😢
It really was emotional .....

@@bozm9961 Beautifully written prose/response on your part, sir. All the very best... :)
@@RT3319 Asante sana RT. .thank you 💕 I didn't even imagine.
What a wonderful film. You can feel the connection between Scott and the Gilberts.
I can't begin to describe what it means to grieve the loss of one's partner... definitely a rollercoaster...
I can relate to this. I've lost 2 significant others to AIDS and was hit by a car on my bicycle when he ran a red light. Waved to me as he drove off when he saw me get up.
"But Todd showed us that the heart CAN keep going..."
He really did ❣
it's so super beautiful, love does not distinguish whether one is this or that / it's simple love which encompasses everything in our universe, which is THE expression of PURE LOVE !!!
Beautifully crafted. I realized that my eyes were watery by the end. Bravo!
Great acting from every actors. Congratulations ❤
OMG, what an incredible movie!!! Crying through most of this, several times over the past year, watching over and over. How many lessons are in this clip!!?? 😢 💕

This little Story is HUGE on so many levels, having said all that I guess it's ok to weep,so I did , openly ❤
Beautiful, moving film. Congratulations to all involved
We couldn't agree more! Thank you for watching and glad you enjoyed the film :)
Very very happy and grateful this was in my feed. Such a touching and heartfelt story, tears where shed and smiles were on my face at times. A lovely story ❤️
This reminds me of Bonnie Raitt's song, "Just Like That." It's story surrounding that song involves a heart recipient contacting the donor's parents.
Beautiful! One of the best shorts I have seen in years - well-written story, excellent production values, and terrific acting! And thank you for using a SAG-AFTRA contract, there should be more like you.
YES! YES! YES! .... What Hector said! :)

Can so empathise with this, fabulously cunning and so poignant, Brilliant stuff!!
Perfect... just absolutely perfect. Keep making movies. Please!

Good film, I love Beverly Todd
This really brought a lump in my throat .... when he put the stethoscope .....

It sure is! Good catch :)
A painful and beautiful film. Congratulations to all involved.

How can someone with cancer can still be an organ donor when having a metastasis cancer and taken chemo? its not possible
