    Had me crying and laughing as well and both at the same time. My wife and I are both in our early 50's and have been married for 32 years. We even dated for 5 years before we married and we have never seen such an accurate depiction of ourselves in a film about two people in love. The man who wrote this must love his wife very much and know true happiness. This was honest and humble. I think I just learned to appreciate life a little more. My wife and I have actually never been happier or more in love than we are today. We also recently found out we will be grandparents soon. So nice to share this life with an Irish Lady. I looked this up because I know the Irish have a way with poetry and my wife is Irish. I hoped to find something good and got more than I could have imagined. Very well done.

      Same here Paul, been married 44 yrs. More in love today than 44 yrs. ago. It is a deeper love, a mutual respect. One son and two grand kids that are old enough now to have kids of their own. I turn 70 and my wife is 5 yrs. and a week younger. Cheers Paul.

    I had no idea the story will take turn like this ! I was just crushing on Leonard badly!So Handsome ! Literally Cant stop crying watching this ! Oh my God ! This was so Beautiful and intense and most emotional thing i ever watched !!!! I m crying Rivers !!!! theres so many thoughts and feelings running in my head which are so Emotional which i cant explain ! I m just thinking when we will die and our loved ones will die and we will meet like ruby and Len and watch our own funeral, we wont be able to interact with our living loved ones while we are watching them in our funeral ! After we die Wont our Soul be so emotional when we will besides our loved ones but not able to interact with them, watching them without our souls presence felt bieng felt by them, and knowing that we are no more in the world where we were born! its heartbreaking thinking about this while watching this ! Len and Ruby talking normally through the tension is so unbelievable and lonely ! The Song and Music in the End cant stop me from Crying! The Piano and ....i go where you go.... This is Genius, Masterpiece, Legendary....never seen something so emotional like this! Actors and Makers of this short films are Genius and soo talented ! Love you Leonard and Ruby ! Love is so Magical, Precious....Love is Everything!❤❤❤❤

    This film is so beautiful! It made me laugh and cry at the same time. Remembering my Love who sadly passed away 3 years ago. The longer we were married the better it got. He drove me bonkers sometimes but I would never have exchanged him for any other man. He was the Love of my Life and I miss him terribly!!!❤

    I'm a geezer (67) in a relatively new relationship with a woman I wish I'd met 50 years ago. It's never too late to find the love of your life. This little film brought tears to my eyes. It's one of the best I've seen in damn near forever. LOVE the actors! And of course the cinematography and directing are also top notch! How is it possible that Pauley Shore movies merit giant Hollywood budgets when films like this are lucky to get produced on a shoestring? Most unfair!

    My old dentist at 90+ was cackling well pleased with himself. He'd just gotten what his wife always wanted....a prime site in the countryside....a double grave! When he passed away some years later his long suffering wife followed him a few days later. She was gentle elegant and kind....he was argumentative hectoring and full of mischief....the perfect match.
    In his surgery on a high shelf sat a magnificent carving of her beautiful head
    With it's plaits surrounding her lovely face in gentle repose.

  • @Bella-gj6wc
    @Bella-gj6wc Год назад +11

    I’ve had that kind of love, and after my hubby passed, I didn’t think I’d survive the loss. Like Ruby and Len, he made me face the inevitable, by living in the present, ensuring happy memories, and living without regrets. You cannot imagine what a gift it was to have the coroner ask me about plans, and being able to respond to him without hesitation, as we’d discussed everything. To be alone afterwards, and reflect that everything I needed to move forward, he’d given me. Leonard Nimoy, of Doctor Spock fame, said days before he passed “A life is like a garden. Perfect moments can be had, but only preserved in memory.” Thankfully mine are all happy! ❤️❤️ Happy New Year everyone!

We will be married 56 years in a couple of weeks and have been together for 61 years. We have been blessed with seven grandchildren. Four of them are half Irish/American but we love them anyway.
    Only the Irish can rip out a man's heart and replace it fully healed in one fell swoop leaving the man all the better for it. Damn you and may God bless you.

    Love the story twists… laugh, cry, …
    On the side note, this looks like a family business. So many credits to the
    Creagh & few other family names…lol.
    Great production & all.
