Review of Ultra Bleu

Ultra Bleu (2016)
8/10
Really good
27 August 2018
Short film must be an especially difficult format, I've seen very few gay-themed that truly resonate. This one does.

It's a three act play delivered in less than 20 minutes. We get to see quite a story arc for the lead character. The pacing is just right, and the story is original and real. There is no hyperbole or gooey romanticism here.

For American viewers this English language film offers an exotic locale and characters we would love to know more about. This movie says a whole lot about modern gay life in a compact and uncluttered way. It's visually interesting and well crafted.

Very worthwhile and one of the best gay-themed shorts I've seen.
