Hey y'all - Alessandro here, writer and director of Midnight Ride. Thanks for watching and for the comments, always a pleasure to get real and immediate feedback on the work. This was a labour of love for sure and am glad you've enjoyed it (mostly! haha). Feel free to reply to this comment if you have any questions/curiosities about the film etc. Take care!
@@LeTreSorelle for me it's such a nostalgic song from when I was growing up in Italy. There's a solace found in reconnecting with our roots when things don't go exactly as planned and we're away from home. I often listen to 90's Italian music to ground myself. So yeah, that was the idea behind it... plus it's a banger, and it's about fiery love which I liked as a juxtaposition to what we think may happen between them and what then actually is going on at the end.
it's a dog eat dog world in the city and it has always been........ Saverio's 'dealings' made him a target, word getting around about his 'sideline menu' ...... thieves amongst thieves, Shiftiness in deed. Nicely acted well filmed , lighting locations all added to the drama.
How were they perfect for each other? She robbed him which is the only reason he robbed her. He would never done that to her and let her believe he was innocent
OHH MY GOSHHH THIS IS SUCH A MASTERPIECE, MUCH BETTER THAN A MOVIE, JUST HOPED THAT ITS NOT A CLIFF HANGER, BUT TRULY A BANGER AS A SHORT FILM, KUDOS TO EVERYONE, I LOVE IT SM!!!!!
Exactly - but then he would be kind of tragic hero - forties style movies - with fame fatale, in this way - they're both from the same shady world - as someone commented here - in dog eat dog realm of shadows, playing games
Yeah ? It truly was a fiery love story , as a previous comment suggested . She really screwed the hell out of him ! I don’t think he enjoyed it much though . Drag .
Very clever, took me a while. It's kind of a sad and demented version of the O. Henry classic "Gift of the Magi," updated for the collapsing civilization of the 21st century. Sort of depressing but quite well done.
I knew the end before it ended, but didn't figure out what he threw away at 1:02 , and if that had anything to do with anything. Nevertheless another masterpiece by Omeleto in exploring the oddities of human behavior:)
His earbuds started working when his phone was in closer proximity. ( though why didn’t it work earlier? I guess whoever she had been on the phone to brought the bike by?)
@@bobstranzenbach4700 exactly, she was called on her phone and they told her they brought the bike and the bag and thar's when his bluetooh started to work again
That sucks ! There’s no need to be like that , maybe we could all help each other instead ? Yeah , I know , not in this world 🌎 . The only thing stopping it is us ! We must do better as a society . It’s sad . 😔
This is fictional: these actors were not robbed nor hurt. If your extrapolations are how your world view is...OK. But this is a short movie: the acting is good, the plot and the storyline are good.

Interesting that she was acting nervous not because she was afraid of him but because she was afraid of him finding out that she set him up.

How about the song choice in his phones? 😊 why Ambra Angiolini?
Nice movie 👏🏼

@@AleSpringsteen07 very interesting. Thanks for your reply 😘 keep up the good work
I enjoyed that. Loved the surprise ending.
It was good. Please explain the ending.

Apparently, they are perfect for each other.
Like your father mother
How were they perfect for each other? She robbed him which is the only reason he robbed her. He would never done that to her and let her believe he was innocent
Not really. Watch it again
Looks like my comment needed a stronger sarcastic tone.
When he bought the yorkie bar,
there was a bicycle just sitting there for the taking,
but he didn't even look at it.
He wasn't a thief. She was.

That was quite good! Love the twist at the end and the acting was superb! Please, keep making films.
I think it would've been better if that guy ultimately decides to not rob that girl cause of whatever connection they had and then him finding out.
Exactly - but then he would be kind of tragic hero - forties style movies - with fame fatale, in this way - they're both from the same shady world - as someone commented here - in dog eat dog realm of shadows, playing games
too cliche
As ye sow....so shall ye reap
A Master Piece. Greetings from Indonesia
Very clever 😊 well put together.
I enjoyed this story.
Love at first rob. Lol,wow.
Right. What happens next? Do they get together? hehe
Yeah ? It truly was a fiery love story , as a previous comment suggested . She really screwed the hell out of him ! I don’t think he enjoyed it much though . Drag .
...think twice... is just another day in ''paradise''...
I don’t want it to end.

I’m not understanding why he would ask her does she want to spit in the food? 🤨
Courtship.
@@brucebr1037 please explain.
@@erdelegy Courtship ritual.
@@brucebr1037 repeating yourself is not explaining, but thanks for trying.
welp, that sucks.
So she robbed his bike and bag/box
His stash box. He sold dope on the side. 😮
@@ronaldmeyers1745Yeah, and like a true dum bass he left that sh!t alone on the street.
I mean, it's midnight

yeah SURE you did
I really like it. Please, name of the last song he's listening to 😊❤ I have the impression that I've heard it a long time ago
Ambra Angiolini - T'Appartengo
Shazam!
Ouch!
This is another good one guys 💥
I don’t follow how he knew she had something to do with it?
His earbuds started working when his phone was in closer proximity. ( though why didn’t it work earlier? I guess whoever she had been on the phone to brought the bike by?)
@@bobstranzenbach4700 exactly, she was called on her phone and they told her they brought the bike and the bag and thar's when his bluetooh started to work again
Very cool!
He looks like a dork, LOL! xD
Sweet
What's the issue?
Seems like a fair trade.

You’re correct on all counts , I thought it was implied .
Stop massive illegal immigration and crack down on crime! TRUMP2024!
No one talking about him casually buying and munching on bread while making this video 😭
Ma ha parlato in italiano non me lo aspettavo
I lost braincells listening to the music
Yes.
I get it.

Shame on them both
Inverosímil. 😐
why?
In my world her ending would of been bad, wanna play gangster than deal with the results of the streets
Calm down tough guy
Oops!
?? I’m not really sure what happened
I had to watch it a couple of times and read the description to work it out. I've posted a comment with a summary of what I think happened.
Exactly, not clear how the bike ended up behind the burrito restaurant.
She set him up.
She set him up to rob him but he also robbed her lol
@@Catherinzsl lad I don't see your summary anywhere down in the comment section?
