COMEDY SHORT FILMS - 1

Comedy is of course a rather subjective genre but I include what I think are some of the funniest short films that I have seen across these pages


Speed Dating by Isaac Feder (2007) (USA) (8m)

Speed Dating is a brilliant romantic comedy about Greg, who has recently broken up with his girlfriend, trying out speed dating. He is confronted with a series of comically incompatible women until he meets one woman who is different from the rest and keen to have an honest conversation with him. Is this the girl for which Greg is waiting? With a great script and wonderful acting, short films don't come much better than Speed Dating.


The Duel At Blood Creek by Leo Burton (2010) (UK) (14m)

The fabulous comedy, The Duel At Blood Creek, was a winner in the 4th FILMSshort Competition. Blood Creek is the name of a popular site where men settle matters of honour with an old-fashioned duel. Unfortunately, it is proving rather too popular today as several would-be duellers arrive at the same time. The bickering and posturing builds up until the fighting begins. But who will survive in such a bloodthirsty age as this?

Last Call Lenny by Julien Lasseur (2016) (USA) (12m)

Tthe Grand Prize winner in the 13th FILMSshort competition, Last Call Lenny did very well on the short film festival circuit. It tells the story of Gabe, who has decided to end his life, but needs a little help. Lenny offers his services for people in such a situation. However, the talkative Lenny does not like to make things too simple, and also has to avoid being the one to actually pull the trigger. It seems that Lenny is a disaster looking for somewhere to happen.


Time Travel Lover by Bo Mirosseni (2014) (USA) (10m)

Time Travel Lover was a finalist in the 7th FILMSshort competition (you can see other finalists here). Time Travel Lover is a comedy written by, and starring, Elisha Yaffe. He plays one of a pair of lovers who are interrupted by himself, having come back from the future. He is there to tell his previous self not to continue with the relationship. However, this future self is not the only person from the future who wants to have a say on the matter...
